Pantomime!

Had a pretty rough time with this. Didn't really have the time to get the movement well. But I am pretty pleased with the acting. Probably will patch it up during the winter break.

11 sec club may contest

Completely forgot about posting this. I came 19th place on this first try at the contest with my 2nd lip-sync.  Should have exaggerated the phoneme shapes more. Nevertheless, content with the body language.
