The greatest dayDreamer

 

It is a 3D animated short about a boy who meets his dead father again one night and sees the heavenly place his father spent his afterlife. It is done as my graduation project on year 2000. It has bagged me a few awards and some good comments since then. Finally I am able to put up a few webpages about it. Very glad. I will try to update the Behind Scenes section gradually.
