    Two ways. The paper was actually two pieces of paper with a piece of tin foil in between them so I could manipulate it and it would stay in place. The first way was to put strings in there with it, then balance everything out and suspend it between two points. The part where it does the loopity loop, however, is a piece of curved paper that was tacked onto a pane of glass. You can't see the edges though, so you can't tell that you're looking through glass.

    I liked it, but there's one thing I would have changed. I would have made it so that after the sequence with the rat, he finally snaps and smacks the rat, causing it to go into the tube. I think that would have been an improvement. Great video, though!

    Well that's a really awesome comment. Thank you! I really only set out to make something funny, but most funny things come from some kind of truth. So I'm sure there's probably a theme in there, just not something I was consciously thinking about. You're free to interpet it however you want.

    I would like to let you know that I really admire your work on this film. I was originally exposed to it several months ago, and it left an impression on me; it still crosses my mind from time to time. I'm not sure how intentional you were about theme, but this is what I've gathered as some sort of a controlling idea: problems/conflicts in our lives (certainly grotesque and unwanted) arrive unannounced, occupy our attention and disrupt our clean routine, but pass just as abruptly. Great work.

    Lights were 8 work lamps I bought at home depot.The paper was actually two pieces of paper with a piece of tin foil in between them so I could manipulate it and it would stay in place.

    Nice animation and small sketch. The premise is simple and the characters are very good looking. I see the rat is very ugly looking and exaggerated in terms of design and movement. Kind of glad as that thing went away since it looks hideous. Anyway, very good stop motion work.

  • @oweeeeendennis
    @oweeeeendennis  12 років тому +3

    No. I've never heard of it. I made this in 2008 (though the copyright says 2012 because I just released it). I thought of it one day when I got to work too early so I just sat in my car doodling. Since I almost always start drawing a circle first, this egg man was drawn and then it all kind of went off from there. At the time I was working as a QA videogame tester and it was a pretty boring job so I guess that inspired me or something.

  • @oweeeeendennis
    @oweeeeendennis  12 років тому +8

    Probably about two months of actual animation work and a month or so of set building and puppet making. The set was built in my bedroom so I'd basically wake up, start working, go to sleep, repeat for two months.
