Transformers movie test footage...sorta

[Raph's Girl]

Check this out folks! Somebody did some awesome "test" footage and stuck the ILM name on it. :lol:

It's fake tho...but for something that's fake (Don Murphy confirmed it as being fake) it's really good! :o

Here's the footage:

Makes you wonder, though.

Someone had to put a lot of effort into that animation; why would they not want to take credit for it?

Did they really think the "joke" would be that funny?

Regardless, it's good work for some dude in his basement.

Maybe the animator will claim credit for his/her work later. But it is pretty amazing. Although one thing bugged me, the autobot who transforms takes a few steps back after transforming. Wouldn't the transformers be constructed to be in perfect balance after transforming?

I may be wrong, but it looks like he is stepping back onto his own feet. have you seen the alternator figures? most of them have the feet flip down like that.
