And thank you all for the kind words and feedback. It seems like the changes that need to be made are: a more random crackle, feathering or smoothing of the blade, the log scene (which I fixed right before I went to work), and some masking issues (which I think I also squashed most of those on my second pass through).
Yeah, That’s about right.
Here’s a frame by frame breakdown. (nitpicking at the highest level
