Hey guys This is a mixture of animation and video taken with the EX3. A UFO discovers something strange and goes in to investigate.

The clip with the sparks floating around the tree took my computer 3 hours to render. :)

Thanks guys, I figured it was better to try and make a story rather than just taking video of the tree this year. Oh and you can never go wrong with the score from Edward Scissorhands during the holidays. :)

For the track shot around the christmas tree, I put the EX3 on a towel, propped it up with a pillow, and slid it on the smooth tile of our floor. Lucky we had tile or it might not of worked. :)

Thanks for watching guys!
