    That is the power of the irish granny, she can either be the sweetest woman in the world or put the fear of christ in your whilst curdling your blood :)

    Congratulations on the nomination!

    Not bad, not a very believable Irish Granny's accent and the characters don't have great emotional dynamic. Granny's eye's are too lifeless.

    Like their curly hair and like the animation too :D
  • Darragh O'Connell 1 year ago
    Thanks Naja, actually we were very proud of the hair as we had decided early on that we simply didn't have a budget to try real hair and anyway it wouldn't really have suited Nicky designs for Granny and so one of our animators, Shane Collins came up with this really simple hair system using low poly shapes and it just plain worked!

    What a terrible bed time story.

  • alana kjelgren 1 year ago
    the grandmothers eyes i felt could use more emotion, more movement with the eye lids. but great animation and story.
  • Darragh O'Connell 1 year ago
    Hi Alana, we got a couple of comments on here about the eyes but all I can say that when you are doing a low budget short, you have to decide at some point that the model is ready for animation. You will always come across limitations with your rig or the time you have to animate a scene but in the end when you have limited resources, there are always ways that things could be better?
