Pre-finals critique -- time for finishing touches... the final vignette should be very near completion today, including sound. This is a firm deadline and is part of your grade. We will review and make any final suggestions.
All final projects have to include sound and be presented professionally, i.e. make it look nice (title, credits).

Did not draw spring form because spring form is a bit higher, I would like the cake pop up..... higher than the container's edge.

Earth one is  also in process, the movement done in PS is almost the same, so I did not export them.
