My nominee for Father Of the Year

A guy who's an animator at DreamWorks likes to take home movies of his 3-year-old being a normal toddler.
And then, his day job kicks in, and he...enhances them. Just a bit.

By all means, see for yourself.
There's about a dozen so far, each about a fifteen seconds long.

Besides hoping the guy partners with YouTube to get paid for views, if DreamWorks ever cans him, he's got these as a resume reel and should have a new job in about 3 seconds, just based on this work alone.

Considering he's in the same general area, he should see about "rolling with the Wong Gang" ;)

There has to be a FailArmy Special Mention Award for when you make a YouTube video that gets more views than the general release movie that it's based on. :D

It's posts like this that inspire me to do something cool. Must put on my thinking cap...

Hmmmm. I'm not that original. But at the very least I can learn to solder properly, I can get some mileage out of that.

I was just thinking of something fun with explosives. I can't do anything like the guy in the link, either.

Soooo you're saying that with kids and photoshop and/or Video Copilot, I can get a job at Dreamworks?

...

I've been doing it wrong. Seriously, it has to be harder than "create new layer" and ctrl+p to make it into the big leagues. It has to be.
