Hmm... I don't know why, but my download refuses to hold a speed greater than 1 Kb/s. It's not my internet connection, cause when I download any other file it goes at regular speed. Does the site have a limitid bandwidth, or is it something else that's the problem. I hope that I wont have to spend 2 hours downloading it, cause I'd like to see your animation.

Freewebs is the limiting factor here... Is there another server the video file could be uploaded to?

What a wonderful story - excellent.
I really enjoyed that very much.
Very well done.

Cheers

Thanks for the good comment!
See if this works:

Very well done! How you long did it take you guys to do this? The voice-work leaves a little to be desired, although doing the sound fx with your own voice was funny in an odd way.

Keep up the good work, I wasn't nearly as far at your age. Then again, computers didn't exist at that time

Haha, that was very nice! I liked it - and I'll try to be nicer to marbles in the future.

A wonderful story. Well worth the wait for the slow download.

It took about 2 weeks. Only with after schools and weekends to do it! And yes, the voices are a bit crappy, but anyway that is something to improve on in my next animation.

Even before I saw your movie, I admired your determination and enthusiasm. After watching your movie, I'm even more impressed. You have a talent for storytelling and I enjoyed the way you presented it.

What was your process for creating it? Did you start with a script, or just wing it? Did you do any storyboards?

Well done.

I first thought up a story from out of nowhere and then i drew some rough storboards and my brother edited them a bit. Then we took it from there. To do the voices i wrote a rough script and then we tried to get them in sync with the mouths. (emphasis on tried! )

Glad you like it!

I agree with the tone of the posts here. For a young fella (and his younger brother) to demonstrate such hard work and imagination toward a constructive outcome is very refreshing these days.

I thought the voices were good, especially considering it's one of the hardest elements to do effectively.

If you're this good at such a young age, move over Pixar.

I have a question: what is your avitar holding? It looks like a plant in his right hand, but is his left hand some kind of claw? It's one of the more interesting avitars.

The 'spoken sound effects' are what sells this cartoon. Now I feel remorse for all those marbles that I've tortured (RE: broke) over the years.

Ohhhh... My avatar. Try looking at http://www.fat-pie.com/salad3.htm that might clear it up a bit.

OKay, I'm joining the others by congratulating you to manage this well at such a young age. I was twelve (almost thirteen) when I got Moho (version 3.0), and after seeing this animation I checked some of the animations I made then, and I must say that yours is alot better than my were.

Now, two-three years later, I feel that I've developed alot (even without using moho. I stopped moho-ing after using it for a month or two, and dusted it of six months ago), and I'm sure you will too (develop I mean, not stop using moho). Just keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to seeing more!
