    Default Watch: DreamWorks Animator Makes Kid's Home Videos Truly Epic

    Plenty of kids have their parents posting adorable videos of their kids all over Facebook, whether they're singing, being funny, reading, or doing something amazing that everyone has to see. But DreamWorks Animation animator Daniel Hashimoto wanted to give his kid something to remember, so he's taken some really short videos of his son playing around at home and at the toy store, and turned them into mini-action movies. His son James is like an adorably clueless superhero, shooting big guns and waving around lightsabers all willy-nilly. I wish my parents were animators to make videos of me doing this now.

    Here's Daniel Hashimoto's videos of his son James, or as he's known online, Action Movie Kid:

    You can see more at Daniel Hashimoto's YouTube channel ActionMovieKid. This is just awesome. It's like a kid's imagination come to life. There's something to be said about the potential for a movie where a kid's imagination comes to life. At the very least, at least James has one of the coolest parents around. Cool?

    That kid is going to have some cool memories when he is older. Best dad in the world...

    I did some messing around a couple of years ago with motion tracking and cg effects. It's time consuming and you have to use a number of tools to do it well but eventually I got the hand of it. These videos are good though and I think his experience working in the movie industry has seriously helped. Very cool
