The sequel to the 'Marriage Proposal': The Invitation.

A sequel to last year's "Love Letters." This time Natasha is the star as she tries to come up with the perfect wedding invitation.

"We burned this animation onto DVD's and sent it out as our actual wedding invitation. It took nine months to complete, and was produced entirely as part of a group project class at the Art Institute of California - San Francisco where I'm an instructor of animation."

"The Perfect Marriage Proposal."

This amazing student film does have a bit of war-like content. I hope nobody will object as the style and effects are compelling.

Japanese Human Art!

Check out the ping pong version too.
