Toy Soldier
When I was a kid I loved to play with army men. The following scene is tribute to my army men days.
The scene starts in a city. Context clues of green and tan army men show that there is some sort of battle in the city. The camera follows behind a tank as it goes up a street. The camera looks around the city at the varying soldiers. As it looks around a plane flies by overhead with a loud roar. Once the tank approaches a soldier near the end of the animation, a car comes rolling around a corner to a stop. The soldiers depicted throughout the scene are animated to turn and look at the incoming tank.
As the tank comes to a halt, the camera zooms out to reveal that the city was actually just a set up in a room on a desk. All of the tanks, cars, planes, and soldiers are plastic figures. The buildings are toy blocks.

The above animation includes all modeling done by myself. However, I decided to also include a new version where most models used are higher polygon, more detailed models that were free from the web. The remastered version of above is shown below.

The tank rolls down the middle of the street and soldiers are staged on the outsides looking in.

Both the car and jet travel in arcs throughout the animation. The camera also shoots the video and is animated through the use of arcs.
