Hi Kevin,

Many thanks for the update on this project 

WOow, that new video is *amazing*  I really the way to mix "hand draws" and CGI (the Q*Bert scene by example) 
I love the general ambiance of the movie... like Space Ace, with a lot of rhythm regarding the action and the music 
As usual, great job Kev'

Awesome ! I really love it ! The concept is perfect. It allows to explore the universe of video games 
Q*Bert, Tron, Berzek 'Intruder Alert'... the sounds are great (except one, at 1m48 on the youtube video... where you can hear kids like in a playground  ), and the mix between 2D and 3D graphic is great : the 3D rotation of the Q*Bert level, or when the ships take off (is it the ship of Terminator2?).
The general soundtrack is great, and well chosen 
How did you do this... looks like a mix between real drawn, 2D & 3D CG... video montage / sound recording (except the video games  samples) ... a lot of stuff for this trailer ! Very Impressive 

Congratulation!

Actually, thats supposed to be the cheering of all those game characters for Nikki...

Nope!
Original 3D design...

Thanks!
I have a pal that does the 3D stuff (Pacman maze, Q*bert Cubes, etc) and then I do the 2D hand drawn animation to put 'on top'....look for playable animatic sequences on my site hopefully soon...thanks for the kind words and support!
