Apparently the Iclone 3 iAvatar file is faulty - I have advised our web guy but in the meantime, you can download a zip file here.

First Project Clip "Where is Pinhead", by Peter Martin (Allpoint) Posted,. www.pinheadhq.com First "View Clips" (there are now 2).

Great Clip Peter:) You've beaten both Alley & Dennis (who are usually the first to Post), to the draw!

It's amazing what you iC3 Pros can do with Pinhead - So life-like.

Don't want to give the game-away, suffice to say, it's about time Pinhead got his end-away;). Maybe his new middled-aged paunch indicates wealth, attracting the ladies;)

By Alley - 17 Years Ago
Excellent work Peter!!! I thoroughly enjoyed that.  Pinhead has had many relationships over the years...I sure hope he can make this one stick.:P

By Alley - 17 Years Ago
Well, I can't believe I beat Colour in announcing a clip!!:P

The "Lover's Reunion" by Dulci is now posted and is an excellent clip.  We seem to have a theme going here....must be Valentines day coming up. :D

Great job Dulci!!!:)

Lovely Clip Colleen.:) I agree with Liz's Post in the Video Friends Forum - Great facial animations, especially Pinhead's. (I've got a lot of work to do!;))

As a veteran of all 4 Pinhead projects, it's nice to see new participants joining-in the fun:)

By Raven2angel - 17 Years Ago
Good one Dulci :D
I enjoyed watching :):)

Something I forgot to mention.  If anyone needs some Pinhead voice files, send me a PM with the lines and your email address and I'll do them for you. :)

New Clip Posted: "Mission Pinhead" by Joe (Loosecanon).
Joe, that video was tops in entertainment. It's fantastic how you pull everything together. I only wish that I had a thimble of your talent.

Kudos, oh great wizard! Kudos!
Ditto from me JoeBig Smile

But, poor Pinhead. After having such a rotten time last year, he did ask that everyone should be nice to him this yearIndifferent  
By Rainman - 17 Years Ago
Nice Pinhead videos Peter, Joe and Dulci!!! Poor Pinhead....always getting himself into a variety of situations :)

Cool how after watching Peter's clip then followed by Dulci's how the stories could've been blended together! Pinhead dumped by golddigger on yacht and returns to his honey back home.....

Cool intro I-Iclone Orb Peter!
By colour - 17 Years Ago
New Clip Posted: "The Delivery", by Roger Read. 
WOW - Grrrrrreat Clip Roger, in the best PH 2D tradition a la Project one: Hollgo & Ingolf.Big Smile I'll PM them, to see if I can reignite their interest.

ADDED - Just had time to watch it properly again. HA HA HA Big SmileBig SmileBig Smile.  That ranks amongst the best 2D Cartoons I've ever seen!

Great animation, music, script & humo(u)r.

It's the participation  as well as the clips, that makes PH the BEST Video Project on the Net. Maybe Pete Barratta's reading the PH ThreadsWinkWink

By Wolfzone Digital - 17 Years Ago
Great clips everyone. I'll have an Iclone Pinhead adventure up in a week and a half or so once I return from Disney with the kids to get the creative juices flowing. Pinhead is a fun character to mess around with. Story lines are limitless

Not an entry, just a bit of fun while practicing with light and particles etc..

Pinheads War

Man oh man. Pinhead is a bad a#@

Peter Martin (3/3/2009)
Not an entry, just a bit of fun while practicing with light and particles etc..

Pinheads War

Yes. You can have a lot of fun using Pinhead, whilst practising iC Effects.:)

Why not Upload your clip as a Pinhead "Fun" Clip Peter. Then I can advertise it in Studio & Video Friends Forums, as well.

There are Users on those Forums who have iC2.5 & possibly 3 are currently doing PH Proj 4 Clips, in iC. Apart from that, the 2D Editors on those Forums, also enjoy watching Pinhead iC Clips.

In fact watching those, encouraged one former 2D Editor to purchase CrazyTalk & iC2.5. He's one of the 3.    

By Alley - 17 Years Ago
Oh man, when Pinhead comes home, "NO MORE XBOX!!!" :P

I just want to remind everyone on the Iclone front that there are two grand prizes of 25,000 Backstage points.  That is a $250 value and that's a lot of content. :D

There is lots of time to the deadline of April 17 (and we might extend this by a couple of weeks).  Also, one prize will be awarded via a draw from all the entries received.  1 name per draw (multiple entries do not give extra chances).

There is no particular time limit or any limit to the number of entries.

I hope many of you will join in. :)

By Wolfzone Digital - 17 Years Ago
A bit of fun as the adventures of Pinhead continue.  He really gets around this Pinhead does.

New Pinhead Adventure Here

                                                       NEW CLIP POSTED

"Pinhead Found" by Liz aka Spielberg-Wanna-be

(Phew! - I wish she'd  change her Username to something a bit shorterWink)

Nicely done Clip, LizBig Smile - Pinhead has added dog training, to his repertoire.Wink

I know you didn't have the use of your usual PC, with your other Video Editing Progs, but it's a good example of what can be done, just using pics & Pinhead. So come-on you 2D Editors - Get those Pics out & put Pinhead in the frame. 

By Alley - 17 Years Ago
Excellent job Lizzie - a totally different approach and very effective.  I know your PC is under the weather at the moment, but this entry created with your laptop was extremely creative.  Now, were those dogs really training for the olympics?

Liz is a fairly new Iclone owner, winner of 2.5 in last Pinhead contest.:D  She's also the voice of Nurse Tiptoe with the significant assets in my Private Eye movie.:P 

By Alley - 17 Years Ago

The animation of Pinhead walking was all done by him by splitting Pinhead apart in pieces - it was not done done with an animation program. Great song too. smile.gif

A "Classic" Pinhead Clip a la 2D mould, but done in 3D - Great Pinhead facial expressions & Pinhead script, with Pinhead's "Dead-Pan" voice, really brought him to life.

Pinhead's relationship with the Committee, made it even more enjoyable & funnyBig SmileBig SmileBig Smile

I just watched this vid. Great production value. Some serious time and care went into this and the story was great. Fantastic job all around aT. Extremely well done
By duchess110 - 17 Years Ago
Lots of detail even the number plate or tag whatever you call it in your part of the world.

Loved the facial expressions.

Well done

By aknzrdude - 17 Years Ago
wow afterthought this is very very impressive!
By afterThought - 17 Years Ago
Thanks so much for the compliments! It means a lot coming from you guys! :blush:
By colour - 17 Years Ago
Brilliantly executed:) (but not Pinhead, I hope;))

I too, loved Pinhead's facial expressions:)

There were brilliant 2D Clips in Project 1, but limited to single Images of Pinhead looking happy, sad & saying "oh". The more artistic, would produce their own, in an Image Editing Prog. It was those changes in expression that made Pinhead so endearing.

But we now have iC3, with unlimited expressions:) (hmmmmm.....for those who have the ability;)) The stakes have risen to new heights in your Clip, for aspiring Pinhead iC3 Animators;)

New iClone Clip just Posted: "Into The Wild Blue Yonder" by mrjrm.

BRILLIANT!!:)

A few years-ago, I produced a Spitfire documentry. I thought it would be a good idea to get a 2D Pinhead flying it, as a "Fun" Clip. But no go.

Not going to give anymore away here, but to repeat: "BRILLIANT":):)
