Vortex Studios - Gates of Hell
Production no. 2
We had a lot of fun doing this... over... and over... and over again.
Especially because we weren't in hurry this time :-). Only thing that bugs
us still is that we designed this animation according to preliminary
rules, which allowed five minutes long animations. Later during the spring
of 2000 Assembly Organization reduced that time back to three minutes and
we had to compress our production to meet the rules, and that shows.
Well, whining is futile. We sincerely hope you liked the "mutilated"
version of GoH despite all the inconsistencies and sorta empty feeling it
leaves at the end. We did our best.
We also hope that we could make up for this cockup in the future. Our goal
is to produce yet another animation for Assembly of 2001, if such is going
to be organized. But one thing we promise: if ASM Organization decides to
stick with 3-minute-animations we're outta here. It has become too
constraining for us despite the fact we did quite a clever work for ASM'99.
That said it's time to bring up the end titles.
