BACKGROUND:
This is the last Divine Comedy video I made that I really enjoyed making. It's the opening to one of their headliner skits from Winter 2007. It received a great response from the audience. It's Paul Jefferies' concept, with Brian Havig as Indy and Jono Decker making a brief experience as the guide.

It was a very cold day when we shot this, and the camera we were using was acting up quite a bit due to the weather. We originally had a lot more footage with Jono in it. I think we even showed his demise somehow. But when I went to capture what we'd shot, I found that most of Jono's parts were unwatchable due to the camera's inability to perform at times in the coldness. However, it was probably for the better, as the addition of Jono's parts would have made the video a little too long.

CRITIQUE:
When I animated the "boulder" rolling after Indy, I neglected to make it so that it would roll behind the objects that Indy runs behind (i.e. the trees and light pole). This was mostly due to my tight deadline I had to meet. I didn't have time to be that detailed.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
-This skit was pretty funny, too. One of their better headliners.
