ANIMUSIC 2

Great! "The music is good. It's cool how the graphics go along with the music. I love all the blinking lights." "I can think of a five other friends who would like it." "I liked the Robots best." "It made me want to build some cool robot things of my own." Boys liked the changing colors that corresponded to the changing music and the sound effects such as the popping of popcorn in one and the pipe organs in another.

Unique, incredible music-driven computer animation. Clean, polished, outstanding rendering, original electronic music, fascinating imagery. Great combination of computer animation and electronic music, both of which are captivating and exquisitely executed on fictional, fanciful instruments. Many instruments appear to be robotic or play themselves. Images are very provoking and inviting. Great close up shots, different angles and the a 3-D feeling of being in outer space. Very cutting edge, 21st century! Each selection is about 4-5 minutes long, each played on different instruments. Very lively, very original. Shows a level of respect for children as thinking people.
