I have been working on this for 3 years. So many challenges, including a computer crash that lost most of what I had done in 2011. Laid it down again last year because I couldn't get my movie making software to render it clear. That problem was solved a few months ago and I jumped back in to finish it. It was all done in DS...still some little mistakes in there but I just left them in. Hope it makes you smile!

I am really impressed to see this splendid realization!
Mimics, the gestural, cutting and the assembly, the music, all ingredients of a gold palm!
Congratulations!
My hat off to you. Very well put together and entertaining. Which is the point after all.
laughing so hard - super job
hope to see many more :-)
Wonderfully done!
That was very well done. What a great Christmas memory! Hope it gets tons of views for you on Youtube, It gives a good example of what is possible with software and a bit of creativity and hard work.
super job.. very well done .. I really enjoyed watching it :)
Happy Holidays
Very nice, better than most holiday videos I've seen. I think the variety of scenes was the most impressive part. I noticed your tip of the hat to DAZ, Renderosity and RDNA, the same places I hang out on a daily basis. Judging by the number of props you used, your collection must be as big as mine.
:wow:
I bought my first Poser 4 in 2000 and signed on to Renderosity to make my first purchase. My purchases from there alone since then are around $8,000 (I added them up about a year ago). I didn't even add Daz or dna and purchases from independent websites....then I won't even start on the freebies offered by those sites! Yes, I have a lot but now I see myself as movie producer. My runtimes are my warehouses and when I am putting a scene/set together, I want to have what I need. I love the everyday stuff and am a stickler for the little details...perhaps that nobody would see put me. I changed over to Daz studio in 2008, right when DS3 was coming on. I really love it! I have a lot more music videos to do but they will be of a more serious nature. I am also a musician and will be being doing a bunch of videos to cover songs I have arranged.
I agree 100%, and see myself in the same way.
I once read a novel about a soldier who went on a drinking binge, putting a toothpick in his pocket for each pint. When he woke up the next afternoon with a flaming hangover, he thought there must be a half dozen toothpicks in his pocket. He pulled out several handfuls.
I just got done backing up the purchases I made during all the holiday sales at DAZ, Renderosity, RDNA, Cornucopia3D, etc. Four full DVD's, several hundred items.
:-S
(In my defence, many of these were ~$1! Who can resist?)
I know, I'm the same way! And don't forget Content Paradise!!

I agree, I spent a lot this season too.
Plus the upgrade price to Poser last month .. I spent a wade on stuff I back my stuff up on a 4 gig HHD drive and use it as a cloud.
Though i like the CD Idea evenhough I'd have to have a awful lot of CD's..lol
Is funny...most women are spending their money on clothes, shoes and makeup. I buy my stuff at Walmart and Goodwill and spend the majority of my excess income on electronic upgrades, software and 3d content. I think that officially qualifies me as a geek-girl!
I probably overdo the backups. The main 3D animation machine has two internal hard drives, and I use Casper to back up the working drive to the second drive (bootable) every week or two. All the 3D elements are on an external hard drive (terabytes), ready to load, and also backed up on a second, larger external drive (compressed, as downloaded). When the newest items on the backup drive reach a DVD worth (4+ GB), I copy them to a DVD. Over the holidays, I got a little behind, the new items reached 12+GB and I had to burn four DVD's.
On top of that I have an entire second computer that can run Carrara just as well (both are Core i7 with good video cards), which also has two internal hard drives with Casper. Plus flash drives scattered all over the place.
Once you get used to it, its just automatic to copy new purchases to the two external hard drives and not worry about it.

I am telling you don't count on those DVD backup = had some go .
I use flash or hard ( I have never lost one - just the power for it - which I fixed for $15 ) - gave up on CD and DVD .
Yes, I always do one burn to a full DVD then put the DVD in storage (climate controlled, not the attic). I've read about quality problems, and have stopped buying the sale DVD's, going with this that gets good reviews (100+ reviews, 4.4 out of 5 stars):

So with two hard drives, a DVD and cloud backup at the vendor (e.g. DAZ) ... I'll still probably lose something.
:coolsmirk:
I find the Memorex brand to be very reliable for DVD-R s and then I do an additional backup onto an external hard-drive for safety sake.
We are a bunch of A Types are we not? But I prefer safe before sorry. I never expect content to still be available the next time I wish to do a Clean install or a full PC move with a Fresh content folder. Some sites do not offer on demand Downloads so... Burn those files to multi places I say.
I played this for our Christmas group today, they loved it. A few of them knew all the lyrics, and were dancing around and laughing with the animation (there was wine). Turns out the song is by a ten year old girl from Ponca City, Okla., my home state. Good music from OK, Roger Miller, Woody Guthrie, ...
How wonderful! I am glad everyone enjoyed it! I have never been to OK but my father's family was one of its founders during the great land rush. I read an article about them in an OK History newsletter a few years ago when I was working up a family tree.
My sister's in-laws were long time Oklahoma residents. When the mother-in-law died, they sent out copies of her obituary from the Oklahoma City Times. It gave her place of birth as "Duncan, IT". I was pretty sure she was born in Okla., and I couldn't figure out what state is abreviated "IT". Then it hit me, she was born in 1905 in Duncan, Indian Territory. Oklahoma became a state in 1907.
Very nice work...enjoyed it thoroughly. Lots of time and effort!!! I loved the massage sequence.
