You'll find a 60 meg quicktime file showing the progess of the lead animator for Scratte from Ice Age for a complex shot of the two, Scratte and Scrat interacting as they begin to dance while fighting for the nut.
The video shows the progress over each day, blocking, splining, cleaning up, etc. And intersting things like extra work just to make sure the motion blurs look right for the fast actions. And near the end, you'll see how distorted they can make the figures move for that toon like motion.
Really cool stuff, something you never really get to see from any DVD extras. Near the end you'll see how just complex it gets.
