The Premise

In the old days of gunslingin', varmint hunting, and shootouts a man who had his wife kidnapped from him plans to rescue her from the evildoers that hold her. Follow a shitty plotline condensed into two minutes of amateur animating with an abrupt ending and an overall crappy soundtrack to tie it all together. Its the whole package!

Why did I upload this nonsense?

You may be wondering why I decided to upload this video, even though it clearly has a ton of flaws in it (even for a newbie). Well, the video took so long to start, and at the beginning I had intentions on finishing it with high quality animations. Unfortunately, time took its toll and I lost interest in the project as college work began piling up yet again. I did not wish to discard all the work I had put into few parts of it, and thus I present to you the cliché crappy-two-minute-really-pointless-western film.

Takeaways & Lessons

"Come on, this couldn't have been a waste of time! I'm sure there's something that could have been learnt from this." is what you might say. And if you did say that, you are absolutely correct. Here are some lessons I learnt from making this video:

• Budget your time effectively at the start of a project to avoid losing interest later.
• Use player skins that don't conflict with the player rig.
• Spherical skymaps are not effective in Mineimator.
• Don't cut the ending so abruptly.
• Learn how to properly export so you don't get unwanted aspect ratio.

I hope you too learned something in the viewing of this film. And now, without further adieu:

But hey, that action scene was pretty cool, eh? Also, bring on the comments on how I need work and blah blah blah. I'm ready emotionally for criticism... possibly.

You said it and I Deliver it.

1. Work slower to make better and more smoother animations 

2. Use transitions like ease in and out(sine) arms, legs, body and head

3 scenery is great btw...

Basically,  just take time to make it great, anyways good job on this m8 for being new and all.
