In a little town where music is forbidden arrives mark, a little boy that wanders under the rain playing a sad music with his flute. For this reason mark is thrown in prison, but suddenly when everything seems lost from a hole in the wall a little note appears...

This short movie was done by one man in 3 months of work, built with a Pentium IV and rendered on 2 computers. Was a very frustrating and long work, but i'm happy with the result. Hope you like it too. Thanks to Sandra Steffensen for the character design and support.

please have a look to the movie on my website

Cool, you did this all by yourself? Even the music - which was nice?

It was very Tim Burtonesque user added image

that was VERY good, I only wish he wasn't lit as brightly when he turned into that weird music guy. Also, you used some black pauses in some unnecessary places. But it was really good besides that!.
