This photorealistic CG animation will show you a normal day of a Malaysian man. You will be impressed by the sets : the trees, the house, the water, ... all seems so real.

nice , the modeling and texturing is good. but the animation is bad.. have to improve a lot in animation. maybe you are interested in modeling and texturing . but you can get someone else to animate . or else you will have to improve a lot in animation.put more effort in animation.... GOOD LUCK

dia punya modelling mantap, tapi dia punya texture tak taulah sama ade dia gune photo sendiri atau ambik dari cd kat low yat.lagi satu dia punya character animation punyalah macam kayu..kau pakai basic fk ke ? pasal tak guna soft ik utk character rigging kau tu?apasal tak tunjuk cara org tua tu pegang barang , mimik muka?cuma dua bendalah aku kagum ....cloth simulation dan fluid dynamic.itu pun sebab aku tak reti nak buat.

CGI sepenuhnya untuk MF. Untuk projek seterusnya, bolehtak awak hasilkan satu movie yg digabungkan antara persekitaran dan watak manusia sebenar dgn kesan khas CGI sepertimana yg digunakan dlm filem-filem Hollywood spt LOTR ke, Spiderman2 ke...etc.

Booteefull mon! Nuff said.

Tahniah, walaupun dah lebih kurang 3 tahun animation ini dikeluarkan.Saya baru sahaja tenok,itu pun secara tak sengaja.Restecpa!Everything is GREAT EXCELLENT & AWESOME.Yes i am expecting "Malaysian Friday II".Eventhough the movement is a bit stiff as stated as one of the commenters earlier,he did also point that by using "motion capture" it could enhance the movement.I do believe so,but the thing is i wonder if that technology has reached here in Malaysia even after 2-3 years after the short movie was made.Even so the animation and sound/music narration still impress me.And btw could someone email me the new link for the official site , coz i dont think www.amalaysianfriday.cjb.net is working anymore.It linked me to this site.Again, Congratulations to the author,Tajino.

Really touching, your way of looking at daily life. You immediately enable a human sharing with your protagonist as if I was at his side (something that sci-fi stuff never does, because it aims at escaping from our lives).

Technically, ... well, a creation like yours gives me the feeling that it can be worthwhile to learn such techniques instead of painting with watercolors.

Yours, Tim (Germany)

I think your short animation is good and looking

For those who don't really know about 3D animation, or haven't really seen much of them, let me tell you that A malaysian Friday is just this good. Not the best or whatsoever. Just plenty of hardwork and time, then with some telent and luck, you got it.

The use of lighting (shadows) isn't really impressive. No gradient stuff at all and movement is a little out.

However, I do like the way the bathroom door closes! :)

Good luck...
Been waiting for the completion since year 2000
apai on 19 July 2002
nice 3d grafix --> Malaysian's Friday
best 3D film in malaysia now
but.....
-the water looks like glass
-the movement sometimes is very slow
-the sound like footsteps doesn't fit to
their movement.

that my comment. hope anoter 3d film will improve this spec and have more morality in that film.

good luck my friend.....cool...

tapi apa apa hal.... ko telah membuka mata kitorang bahawasanya malaysia bolehhhhhhh...

yehhhh.... good luck men....

I think what Jin Ho has done is amazing. The detailed texture really sets it apart - the rusty water pipe, the water pail, the mossy bits in the well; it all looks so real! Great lighting effects. Only someone who pays great attention to details can do this.

Regarding the character's stiff and floaty movement, I've heard from someone in the industry that the only way you can create realistic movement is by using "motion capture" where you actually attach sensors to a real person who moves, and transfer the data into the computer. This is what those Japanese games producer do. No doubt Tan Jin Ho knows about this and perhaps someday he'll have the chance to upgrade 'A Malaysian Friday'.

Way to go Jin Ho!


Zoink on 19 January 2002
Your animation is "wow" ... When is the full version coming out ..can't wait to see it. great job, cool graphics and great animation .
blurring_out on 7 December 2001

Kenshi_xii on 2 December 2001
TAHNIAH TaJiNo...
Awak telah buat sesutu pembaharuan dalam bidang Multimedia yang masih baru kat Malaysia ni...
terutamanya dalam bidang animasi 3D.
Tapi...tak semestinya sempurna...
Saya kurang jelas dengan mesej dalam animasi ringkas ini...dan
Saya nasihatkan awak supaya mengambil pandangan orang Islam terlebih dahulu sebab dalam animasi ini, ada yang tak betulnya seperti komen-komen yang telah anda terima.
Antaranya ialah waktu azan yang tidak betul dan laungan azan yang tidak habis..
walaupun pakcik itu telah masuk di dalam rumah,
tetapi takkan tak dengar langsung kut..
Saya harap awak menerima teguran ini sebagai teguran membina...
TAHNIAH sekali lagi...
sin on 18 November 2001
Good effort! Animation need to be improved especially character animation, avoid the common mistake by most of the 3d animators-->floatty or weightless, and also it would be nice to inject personality into him like.. is the old guy tired or...? Modelling of the old guy is okay, otherwise, nice establishing shot, textures, background, mood , reflection of lifestyle in malaysia village are excellent!
kery on 31 October 2001
Waaa lawa siiiiiioooooooottt...This is the best i have seen.Good job man!!!
Wey aku nak bikin macam ko gak laaa.Tapi stock lighwave takder lagi laaa.Ko cari untuk aku leh??Apa apa hal ko memang power..Conggratzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!
Esah-Gesto on 23 October 2001
tajino,
first time i tengok u nyer animation .. i ingatkan videoclip ke .. rupenye 3d animation .. perhhhh ... real say . perhh .... caya lah!
noaccessx on 10 October 2001
i think it would be the best if you can handle a forum where you trained people how to do it. i'm sure that there is another person who also have talent like you and maybe you two can link together. :)
skywalker on 5 October 2001
Jin-Ho,

You're really good....hopefully you will be the second Ahmad Shahril(this guy who created an effect in hollywood movie)
azools on 4 October 2001
The animation is outstanding...You are great Jin Ho. I noticed about your movie in one of local computer magazine and after I download it, undoubtly....you are superb !
abe on 3 October 2001
hello, last week i saw a preview at TV3, and i surf it and as i say,wooo...what can say, i'm speechless, as muslim, well...i say that's a great job u've done there and as malaysian i proud of it.It much more better than Final Fantasi X, 3D animated i've bought. I'm hoping you can keep up your good work and make it our malaysian 3D animated movies to the great future.

Manager Kemat MOE on 28 September 2001
well done!!!

cicak on 27 September 2001
Good Concept .. animation on motion should be improve.. like how the old man walks... your scenery looks like at 10 o'clock or something.. but what i know is azan should be in the afternoon.. good texture.. 8 out of 10. GOOD JOB. by the way.. cd pirate ker original.. hehehhe...
cowchickenz on 25 September 2001
hmm.. i didnt get it.. tuh org azan tuh masuk waktu apa.. nak kata subuh matahari dah tegak atas kepala.. tapi scene nampak cam waktu pagi.. tapi azan apa ekk.. nak kata azan zohor apsal org tua tuh tak bersiap-siap nak pegi solat jumaat, azan asar mungkin kott.. tapi apa sebenarnya yg dia nak tunjukkan dengan malaysian lifestyle on friday..thinx b4 get use to it..
awak on 25 September 2001
fuyooooo......
u memang bes laa..
I can appreciate the effort that went into making this, but I also think it's an excellent example of the problem with photo-realism in computer animation. The look of it is beautiful but the motion of the figure is very stiff and floaty. I think it's due to inconsistancy of small details in the figure's movement. We tend to overlook these in abstracted figures but there's no hiding it in photo-realism. Still, it was a nice effort!The opening was cool man! Setting looks really real. Man's a bit haggard stiff but still seem quite real. Mo sound pls? And oh, when's the continuation - I'll keep checking - but no pressure intended here. Bet you're gonna get better at this - share some tips, esp on the software you are using.

Probably you can furhter study
MSc or PhD on 3d animation or related. Look at CGI technology as in Final fantasy the spirit within.
Or probably you can go to Eurofine Sdn Bhd. which currently they are implementing
Multimedia on demand(MOD) application prototype somehwere at KL. to commercialise. MOD is
an Interactive Television. People use television to browse, watch any movie or any content at any time and interactive.
good luck.....
MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!

ayen on 25 September 2001
firstime aku tengok kat tv..aku ingat real movie..rupa2nya 3d animation...aku ingat mata aku dah rabun teruk pasal aku memang pakai cerminmata...fuhhh very real....tahniah dan juga terimakasih kerana memuatkan suara azan sebagai muzik latar. Aku suka dengar yang itu.
kepada saudara2 sekelian terutamanya VEVE...the music at the beginning itu ialah suara AZAN yang mengajak orang sembahyang/solat...antara maksudnya ialah..
ALLAH MAHA BESAR,
TIADA TUHAN YANG KUSEMBAH MELAINKAN ALLAH,
NABI MUHAMMAD ITU PESURUH ALLAH,
MARILAH SEMBAHYANG,
MARILAH MENUJU KEJAYAAN,
ALLAH MAHA BESAR,
TIADA TUHAN YANG KU SEMBAH MELAINKAN ALLAH

good luck Tajino
anda masih muda
semuga anda mendapat hidayah dan terus berjaya.

Salute to you...tajino
da' character, da' environment, da' architecture, da'prop, and da' background sound, semua kombinasi ini membuatkan 'A Malaysian Friday' look diffrence and perfect with a fully value of art. Kamu dah jumpa satu dari berjuta-juta permata dalam Islam. Maybe like Armstrong
Malaysian proud of you. Good job dan mungkin ia boleh dikomersialkan satu hari nanti.

Really great job, and by the way very motivating for me, THANKS !
Martial Law on 17 June 2001
The Visual is incredible. Very good shading. But, as almost all the "modeler/shading guys", the animation was very simple, strange, and very, very esquesite.
The man walking, walk like a sick mummy.

Improve the animation, and the movie will Rulez ! Push the animation to the level of your shading/texturing and modeling.

My 2 cents.

world's time on 3 June 2001
Excellent work.
Everything seems so real especially at the beginning of the show... the warm sun and the coconut tree --> WOW! so fantastic
The effects during the water being taken from the well is the very nice work.
3D animation movie produced and Malaysians are proud of you!!!

I must say it's a tremendous effort done! This could very much be a stepping stone for other talented animators thru out the country to produce world class animation of this kind!
keep up the good work, Taj.

fantastic, a work worthy of mention.
a true malaysian depicting a real event.

Well done!! And can be more better and smooth. Keep going on... Think to make 3D movie in Malaysia?
