Wikileaks cyberwar animation

Did this a couple of hours after PayPal was taken offline in the "operation: payback" anonymous cyber attacks in defence of Wikileaks.

Very quick and very basic ( <30 secs ).

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion on what those guys are doing. Personally, I'm all for it. This is just an exaggerated representation of what cyberwar may look like.

Very funny, but exaggerated indeed - there's way too many of them in that room together to be "cyberwar" losers. One is realistic. Two tops.

But an excellent job!

Funny!
How long did it take you to make this?
I like the fact that AS can be utilized for "quickie" animations like this.

I like it. I do not think that there are too many of them. I could see a bunch of them gathering at somebodies house for such an occasion.

Your art style is inspiring. Thanks.

My point was that the dweebs who would do this sort of thing wouldn't know "a bunch of somebodies." If they did, they wouldn't be doing that.

Maybe 3 hours all up.. can't really remember, I started it when I got home a bit drunk from dinner

The room was done in Photoshop probably in about 10 minutes. I had a couple of nerdy looking characters already, I just tweaked them a bit (different headshapes/clothing/hair).

That's right. They'd be drinking coke, eating skittles, and playing network games.

I checked out some of your other videos on youtube. I wanted to reemphasize that I really like your work.
