I am currently working on making a DVD for the musical "Who Wants Candy?",
produced by my church. I decided to make an animation of falling snow
becoming falling candy for the DVD menu. It's pretty simple. I didn't spend
much time on it, but it's a fun effect, so I decided to share it. The
snowflakes are blatantly stolen from:

And the candy canes are also taken from a post that I can't seem to find
now... :-( The rest of the candy is my own, though.

Sorry for the large download size. It's about 11 MB total, so I'm linking to
my own server rather than uploading. Format is XviD MPEG-4 compressed AVI.

Interesting

The background seems a bit too white... maybe it would
look better if it was darker, and perhaps a little bluish?
Or use a gradient  so that it looks less flat.

Also, I see that you've made it so that as time passes more
and more candy replace the flakes. You could make this
process a bit shorter so that it's more interesting. Unless,
of course, you have a fixed time where the progression
must take place (such as a soundtrack to sync to).
