*EDIT* A DD? Oh mai~

Many tanks to *KaiThePhaux and ^NikiVandermosten for the feature. Many tanks for you~

My Round 2 entry into TOFA 2010, hosted over at Albinoblacksheep.com

The theme for the second round was "One wish" and thus we had to make a 30 second - 10 minute animation in 18 days centered around that theme.

I wanted to do something different since i've heard the others using genie's and what not. So here's the story of Bear Bear, who's only wish is to be loved~

Feel free to pass on critique on the animation side of things, ah needs improvements~

Also, there are a total of 10 OC cameos, see if you can spot'm all~

Daily Deviation

Given 2010-08-13

TOFA 2010 R2: Bear Bear by *Zeurel "I choose this Deviation because it really speaks to the child in your heart. You remember your first stuffed animal, and it's really interesting seeing it from the bear's point of view. The animation style is just so original and smooth, it's like watching a movie. The entire sequence is so well-done, and the music, so fitting, that I really believe it deserves this Daily Deviation. Simply brilliant work."

The animation is wonderful. I can see very clearly that you knew exactly what you wanted this to be and so you made it happen. The story flows very clearly with good rising action, falling action etc. I have to say that the whole "doll is evil and alive because of lack of love" and "it was all a dream except it maybe wasn't" concepts are pretty unoriginal, but the prison thing at the beginning was new, so that brought a 2 to a 3. The whole thing really makes you look back on your own childhood and your own favorite toy. All those times you thought about what it might do or say if it could talk. Good technique, not much more to say there. I liked the fact that the girl used a rolling pin instead of a traditional horror movie kitchen weapon like a knife or fork.
I liked the show.

It is so nice in the beginning when the little teddy gets a new home, it gets happy. But then it gets these fears that it's going to be left behind again and gets insane, the sadness comes and it's just amazing, how it changes and turns into this monster that it really seems to be. And the ending is very very exciting, you just want to look at it again and again!
You did a great job with the story, the choice of music made it all even more exciting and creepy. The hole thing was exciting (as I've sad a billion times now..) And it really caught your eyes.
It was perfect for (at least) my taste of story. Very well done!
