Yeah I also tried to find it in other places... with no result.
An idea would be to try and find the animators that created the movie and ask them.

I am just curious why you are so interested in this specific 3d animation?

Judging by the preview on their website it seems to be a really nice animation.

I don't know how are you going to find the animators, but here are the directors:

Cameron Hood
Kyle Jefferson

Cool.. how many animations do you already have in your collection?
How much does animation mentor cost at the moment?

I have 90 animations...dreamworks, pixar, bluesky/fox, blur studio, warner, walt disney, sony...some films in 1080p like Pixar, Futurama films and Simpsons. I give priority to big studios because the animation techniques is amazing.
Animation Mentor in America - $17,500
For me - R$31,850 -> Brasil
(Dollar)$1,00 = (Real)R$1,82

Wow $17,500!!! Yeah definitely not cheap considering the current economic situation.
But seeing the works of Animation Mentor students I would say that it is worth it.

I think that with your animation collection you just need to animate continuously while finding inspiration in the animations you like. If you didn't read the illusion of life I advice you do to so, and the rest is just practice, practice and once again practice... Smile

I agree
All animators students must have Illusion of Life and The Animator's Survival Kit.
I think Animation Mentor is the best because the mentors work in Pixar, Dreamworks. So, if you take it seriously, definitely you'll be a good animator.
I'm tired of spending money in others and always learn the same things.

Do you have any good animations done by you already?
