OK So a reverse this time. With Dick Ikon you put humans in a CGI world and here you've put a CGI character into a human world.

Whilst this is as good an example as I've ever seen from amateur filmmakers, it wasn't as convincing for me as the other way around. I guess this is because we live in the real world and have fixed ideas of exactly how things should move and interact with their environment. Te character worked OK on its own - it was really detailed and the way limbs moved in relation to each other were "realistic", but in terms of moving around the house it wasn't quite right for me - in particular I'm thinking of when he moves across the landing towards Maria.

Other than that, I liked the colour grading used for the twilight shots outside at the beginning.

It started with a good selection of shots from different angles BUTI didn't like the wide shots of Maria running/skipping arIt started with ound the tree. There wasn't enough head room with the result that in many shots the top of her head was chopped off.

Music and sound were sound!

I look forward to seeing more of your material.
