I was wrong and it's amazing! I think that mirror ball thing that dude was holding records shadows of the location which they add to the models to make it seems more real. I've never seen it so well done though...

I have the fierce diety statue, mm manga volume, skull kid figures, n64 3ds and gamecube version. I was always so amazed with the majoras mask itself too. The colors and design always got my attention. Overall I just wanna say you guys did an amazing job capturing the moments better showing that skull kid was being controlled by the mask to showing that the happy mask salesman didn't die lol. I hope Nintendo contacts you guys or you guys contact them for a movie of this. Seeing this on the big screen would be amazing.

    Was recently driving from Seattle to Sonoma and passed through Humboldt and remember throughout a lot of the drive being reminded of Majoras Mask, which was probably partly cause I was playing Majoras Mask at the time, but just realized that his short film was filmed in Humboldt and is probably part of why I was thinking of Majoras Mask.

    I figured as much that you guys used IRL footage for the forest. Very nice! Damn good job with masking for the fairies and motion tracking. Zbrush was used for the mask I believe yeah? Very nice, loved seeing that amount of detail on the carving to really give it that wooden texture look. Those animation references were great and definitely emphasizes to viewers and upcoming animators how important it is to have that type of footage for the final cut. Enjoyed the short and hopefully gets some higher ups looking for ideas from you guys!

    At that one moment where Majora is possessing the Skull Kid, when he’s just on his knees screaming at the sky, the fog is just wrapping around him like a whirlwind. Like a tornado, or some kind of vortex. Idk if u intended that or not, but It’s a great addition. It really shows just how dark and powerful Majora is. I want to see this become a movie. Terrible Fate can be the trailer.
