Enough of Frank...For Now

Right, although I haven't finished with Frank yet, I decided to shelve him for a short while in order to concentrate my efforts on a new idea, which I must pass on the credit to my girlfriend for. I have long been trying to come up with a really great and original idea for my showreel that will make it stand out from everyone else's. Today Sian came up with the answer with irritating ease! I don't want to share it here until it's complete as I'm worried about someone pinching the idea!

So for now, here is an updated and rendered version of Frank. I spent some time yesterday trawling through the tangled spaghetti of an animation graph for him, removing redundant keys and smoothing those that remained. I think the result is more flowing than my last update.

On a seperate note, I read on the net that the new Disney Goofy short entitled "How to Hook Up Your Home Theatre" was released on the front of the movie "National Treasure 2". I have been trying to establish if this is true of the UK release, as I want to go see it. I have no interest in watching the movie, but will gladly go if Goofy is there! Can anyone answer my question?
