Talk:And the Winner Is.../@comment-4910024-20120513024352

I would just like to nerdgasm about two things that particularly impressed me this episode:

1. I noticed how much "camera movement" there was, and in particular there were several shots that "panned" around a focal point (Amon, the probending arena, the Ferrets) as if someone were actually filming it instead of drawing it. Do you have any idea how hard that is to do?! To not only animate moving objects and characters, but also a moving background, and make it look precisely the same as in the frame before but from a sliiiiightly different angle?! When most cartoons try that, the background ends up looking weird and distorted. But this time it was flawless. Studio Mir, I applaud your hard work.

2. The music. Holy cats, the music. So beautiful and so perfectly suited to the situation onscreen. Sifu Jeremy and Sifu Ben, I bow before you. Teach me your wondrous ways.

These are by no means the only two fantastic things in this episode (DAT FIGHT SCENE), but I felt that these people deserved some credit. Please, keep it coming!
