did it work ?

yes, it does work, more or less, now that i know what it is.  i probably didn't get it the first time because it's moving in a perfectly straight line (the red line in the attached pic), whereas i'd guess that in real physics the trajectory should have a slight downwards curve (blue line).  it might also look better if you had a few more stones - if there's gravel on the road, then it's likely that more than one stone would be kicked up - but it's prob. best to perfect the first one before adding any more, as it'll only make more work if you do it the other way round.

i'm still liking the contrast between the powerful-car imagery and the gentle classical soundtrack, there's definitely something good going there :)

Stinky:
Thanks alot colclough...
yeh i know the trajectory would be parablolic but i was hoping to give the effect that it was being flicked out very quickly.
  But I think you're right. It might have a bigger impact on the viewers if it followed a smaller parabolic trajectory.

Thanks again

so time-consuming....

Tanzim:
Nice for a first video!
I liked the rims, also, unlike thecolclough, I think that if that video was a car ad, then it would go perfectly, but only for European cars (I'm sure that's the stereotype)
You might like to know: saying that "this is my first video" or giving credits at the end of a video that doesn't even go for (longer than) 5 minutes makes you look really stupid (though you didn't do the latter), that is my personal opinion.

Dosser:
yeah, not bad. I'm Australian, and my first thought was that it was a car ad too: they seem pretty standard with rotating /panning shots of a car and that sort of background music.

One criticism, not directed at you particularly, but there just seem to be a lot of anim8or animations shot in slow-motion. I know in your case it was the effect you were going for, but there's just so many that are a little too slow (about 1.2 times slower, just enough to be annoying). As said earlier, the super slow-mo made the 'car starting' effect look a little weird. On that note, perhaps change the colour of the pebble, or make lots of them going slightly faster to make it stand out more.

But on the whole it was a good movie: the model itself was great. How low-poly is it? Regardless, it definitely has a look of an excellent low-poly model. The tyre close-up looked good too.

I agree with everything Dosser said, the tyres looked very good
