This piece was created over a 2 week span with all source material created in Blender, and some post processing and masking done in After Effects.

That was good! Very artistic usage of Blender! I like seeing someone using Blender to render such an illustrative style. Was the Freestyle rendering engine used to achieve that illustrative effect?
Very suitable song choice, since the song is about sex.
Nice style with the graphics. Very well done.
unusual use of Blender. Please share how the sketchy appearance was made. thanks.
Nice work, thank you Chris :o)

i love it...
as usual the tool is just a tool and the soul is the soul!
Great Work!
Thank you very much!
Merry Christmas!
I'm not a believer in christian fairy tales like the nativity. But this was very nicely done, very smooth.
WOW. I like it.
Very nice!
Not to lessen your good job, but with that music ... it's cheating! The music is so wonderful that you get into a "make me dream" attitude automatically!
Happy holidays!
simplement beautiful
Very Amazing!
Very inspired piece!
Merry Christmas to all of you!
:D :)
late to the party as usual. i enjoyed the style. i think vignetting is getting to be a bit old however. it's like photoshopping lens flares or something, and i don't think necessarily fits with this theme or feeling.
for being a story, however, i couldn't find any. a guy being watched by sheep. bunch of guys waiting for the camels to move, and then two guys looking at a box in a sheep paddock. all of which is fine, i was just disappointed i spent 3 minutes watching camera animation within a still life of nothing happening and no story. wow that sounds harsh, but i can't say it any other way. the style was refreshing, i just wish it had been put to an effective use.
i think that this is what what was meant to be: a Christmas crib with no animation
this way there is more Christmas feeling
of course with a lot of time can be found an animation fit to this fact, but i like so much the idea!
