    Something of interest. Momoko Ishikawa voices the Ghost Girl in the short. She's relatively knew to voice acting, and unless I'm mistaken this would technically be her third role. It's interesting that they choose to do a blend of Japanese and English voice actors for this short. While it's primarily english, still interesting none the less. The music was also composed by someone relatively knew, Tetsuya Takahashi. He composed the music to the second Appleseed Movie (EX) and Resident Evil: Degeneration. The director, Takashi Nakashima, is connected with Tatsunoko Productions in some way.

    The short is sweet! Also, it's a great short even for the people who don't know Sonic. I wished to it be longer, but it's one of the best shorts I've watched! I really wanting a Sonic Unleashed animated series like this now.

    Also interesting details about the staff ChibiGoku.

    This is actually pretty well done, if it is some sort of demo of what their ve animation studio can do, they definitively have potential to go for a more serious project (pixar-like film or things like that)
     
  4. I love the pixar-disney feel of it. Look at the credit style :argh:

    I'm wondering if the knight is a hint for a mini-episode of Sonic and the Black Knight?

    why else would they put it in there?


    I could be totally wrong still :p

    It's a "scary" house with ghosts, why not have it? =P

    Remember when the ghost were inside the knights armors? That's probably why it's there, but I'm hoping that you're right.

    How about, every creepy old cartoon house has them? Go watch an episode of Scoobie-Doo, and tell me if you see any.

    Heh, the two ghosts are in Sonic Unleashed. You can see them in the "Tag the Ghosts" mission in Spagonia.

    Are the Sega FTP files mirrored anywhere? I'm having issues connecting to the FTP, probably people trying to get the damn thing =P

    HD version, preferably.

    EDIT: I'd like said above HD version to keep. Just watched the film on Youtube - brilliant little clip. XD

    I just love the cartoony interpretation of Sonic in this. I adore how lighthearted and charming the short's atmosphere was. Same goes for Unleashed. Please, SEGA, continue this approach in future games and media - it is truly perfect.

    making cool music no one gives a shit about
    Yeah, I noticed that. Very Incredibles-y.

    But am I the only one who's reminded of Scratch and Grounder by those ghosts?

    Nope, you're not. They kinda reminded me of those two aswell.

    This wasn't the best thing I ever saw, but it probably was the best official thing I saw recently involving sonic. I wouldn't mind a short series like this, I always loved the way sonic cutscenes looked.

    I have uploaded various HD videos from Sega FTP in Vuze...

    here is the link...
    Sonic - Night of the Werehog
    (and I have ripped the video, so the quality is the same, but the filesize is around 400MB)

    EDIT: err.. the size is 400 MB... now I'm seeding...

    I hope they try this whole characters-don't-talk thing in a future game, which would be especially sweet if they coupled it with the old style character designs (perhaps using cel shading); kind of a "retro" game, or something.

    The video was absolutely adorable. I loved it. I wish they would do alot more of those.
