Re: New video I want an opinion on

This reminds me of a show I used to watch called Eye Drops, yet for some reason it isn't played anymore... Anyway like what Nate said about the white light a lot of the time it bends into the background and you see this massive while cylinder in the center and you sit there going, meh there is something blocking my view...
I love the background, I love the textures. A few things did bother me though, that was some of the instruments move so fast they would jump one frame and be back to normal the next. Also hmm no also other than that I think it was great. Very minor things here and there, very good job.

Re: New video I want an opinion on

good animation and good timing but.......

It looks like your only using white lighting. use different colors of light in different areas. Like only casting light on what u want to draw attention to. Animate the lights, think of it as a stage in a theater. Change the lighting frequently too, constant white light is just too plain for my taste. Also put light where you least expect it to come from, it always makes the video a little more interesting. (example: when the drum stick hits the target, there could be a small colorful explosion of light.)

But wonderful Idea! I can see where you where inspired by animusic. I can never get any of my projects done cause i lose interest too fast. I love creative way of making the music interments.

Re: New video I want an opinion on

thanks guys! I was really worried about the light in the center. I didn't realize until after the rendering that the light blended in, and I didn't have enough time to do much lighting (notice there's no shadows). Maybe I'm just a pessimist :-). If you look at the strings you'll see that the are attached to the drums when used, but not attached when not in use. At the end, the reason why 2 strings didn't come down was because the drums they attached to were being used.
Thanks again, I'll remember your suggestions when I do my next video
