This is my final for my college Final Major. There has been a fair few weeks of effort put into this and like many animators/artists i'm not incredibly happy with the turn out. It'll be shot up on the big projector at the show so i'm hoping the feedback from both the show and your Ng'ers will be positive.

The main reason i animated this story was for the fact that i knew many people had heard about the actual "Slow and steady wins the race" moral but not actualy sure where it came from, this is what i wanted to show people and i think i achieved it. albiet in a roundabout way.

Anyway enjoy =].

#2 Late edit upon submitting i've realised it's a little glitchy that will be changed in the next 5 minutes so for current viewers i appologise.

"A few problems"

date: June 22, 2008

The scene where the Hare is running over the hills in the start, when he runs by and we get a glimpse of him, not just smoke clouds, his legs didn't move. I hope you weren't just lazy and that theres a glitch. Also, very nice work with text scenes, like an old cartoon. I personally think you should have done black and white to fit that mood. Few spelling errors, and I also caught on too how dumb the Hare looked. Overall, it was a nice retelling of the story. Good job, and good luck too you.

"Hopefully helpful"

date: June 22, 2008

Hallo,
That was a nice little flash with a nice animation style. My one quim concerns the movement (which one reviewer has already mentionen). It seemed a bit repetitive or - for a complete lack of a better word - "loopish". For example the tortoise's cheering in the trophy seemed to be the same movement looped over and over again.
I hope that you get a good mark for this and the best of luck.
