Entry Description

"It's a brutal battle for robotic supremacy. Try not to lose your head!" An original piece of computer animation.

Judge 1

Positives: Great models and set. Effective camera work. Nice build up to battle.

Improvements: Work on story more. Answer questions like "Who are these guys?", "What is their personality?", "should the audience like one more than the other?" etc.There should be a payoff at the end.

Judge 2

Positives: Great use of camera movement. Neat concept, and character designs. Some impressive lighting.

Improvements: World lacks detail and texture. Some animations were stiff, and on occasion, the robots arms clipped through each other. Could have used better fitting music, and repeated sound effects grew repetitive.

Judge 3

Positives: Nice job of modeling and good establishing shot.. Love the tension you build with music and sound effects.

Improvements: The pacing of the actual fight is slow. Speed it up a bit.
