My first attempt at CG animation...

Although it's slightly off topic with regard to this blog, I decided to upload my first attempt at CG animation. It's a boot licking animation that I uploaded to YouTube in June 2012.

However, the YouTube 'powers that be' decided to delete it as 'inappropriate content' in April 2013, stating that it 'has been removed as a violation of YouTube`s policy on nudity or sexual content.'

Really? Given that you can easily find videos with much more visceral, dribbling, muddy boot licking on YouTube (try searching on 'boot licking'), I find that decision pretty arbitrary!

Anyway, see what you think.

For those interested in technical details. the CG program I used was Softimage.

Regarding my other videos, 'LLP Episode 1' was created with Anime Studio (a rather underestimated 2.5D animation software IMHO), and 'LLP Episode 2'  was created with Blender (an absolutely fantastic open source 3D creation suite). The short comic was created with Inkscape (a great open source vector graphics editor).

Cheers.
