Guess Who?
Made for the Ani-Exer size contest.
Had to do this extremly early because im going away soon and i wanted to finish. Its a dark lighted film, so make sure you can see it with your computer brightness.
You probably wont get the characters if you havent watched Don't Trust Katherine.
Made using:
Logitech QC pro 9000
Helium Frog
Sony Vegas 8
Audacity
Sqirlz Water Reflections

Haha, nice! Really good effects!
Oh My Gosh! that was actually freaky and my heart skipped when the monster showed up. but this would be better with more earthtone colors in the bedroom. good job though. 
Trust me, if I had earthtone bricks i would of certainly used them for the bedroom, but im kinda low on bricks and don't have many good colours. I will buy some when i have enough money though

Try some sand blue. that would appeal to a young boy.
That was pretty good. I actually thought the scariest part is when the kid opens his eyes 
The animation was good, but the lighting was a little sketchy. It looked like you filmed it with normal lighting, and then just adjusted the brightness afterwards, am I right? It was hard to see and didn't look very realistic.
But the lighting was the only thing that really needed work, the rest was nice
I can honestly say that I was freaked out when Kathrine popped up.

Yes, you are right. I couldn't get good darkness lighting so I just changed the brightness.
How do you get good darkness lighting anyway?

Well, getting good lighting in this situation is difficult, and I'm no expert. Whenever I've had a 'dark' shot it's just trial and error. Some things I try are dimming my lamps with paper, messing with position of the light, and then fiddling with my camera settings like aperture to adjust how much light gets in the camera. I think it's especially difficult with an interior scene like you have in your film, I don't know, anybody else have any knowledge with this type of lighting?
Fright? THIS IS SPART... Oh sorry.
This was an awesome film Emma! Really good! Make more of those!
good job emma! this was a great film, it had the fright factor!

Very good Emma. The lighting was awesome and the animation was good.
I'd give this film 4/5.

Oh good.. I'm not the only one.. was focusing more on the door.. Nothing like a dark shadow coming out of nowhere to scare ya huh? 
Good luck in the contest
As for the lighting, May I ask what type of light you were using? I might have a idea for you to try with the darkness..
This was released on my birthday!
