Funny! Each one better than the last, IMO.

The timing of the funny at the end of the first one was a little off, I thought. But it was still good. A great first effort, if one doesn't critique the animation very much.

I loved seeing the ball from the Moho tutorial in your second movie. And the bobble head was super. And the voice acting. Lots of good stuff in this one.

You did your 3rd movie in 48 hours or less? Whoa. Funniest and weirdest of the bunch, though I like how the 2nd movie ended a bit better.

Good stuff!

Thanks.

Hehehe I had forgotten about that ball from the Moho tutorial. Actually, each one of these cartoons was made in less than 48 hours. And when we got to the scene at the beach, nobody was lucid enough to draw a beach ball.

Those are great! Original music, montages, animation, cheesy effects, what more could you ask?

This kind of humor really appeals to me. I guess I would describe it as "Monty Python's Flying Circus" if I had to give it a label.

Very nice!

I tried, but somehow I can't watch it. What compression was used?

Sorry, I meant to put that it was QuickTime 7. I don't know of anyone experiencing problems with the Windows Public Preview. Maybe there's another media player out there that can handle the h.264 codec. I'm really not too knowledgable in this area. I thought about encoding these videos under an older codec, but the quality of h.264 is leaps and bounds above anything else at a similar file size.

We just finished the Fall 2005 scramble, and will be posting the new movie to the website some time after the film screening (November 9th or later).

It's a new low in ridiculousness.
