This was for a college project. I animated the song "Space Oddity", by David Bowie. This took quite a long time to make, so I hope you enjoy it.

For some reason the song goes ever so slightly out of sync with the animation towards the end, sorry about that.

EDIT: Wow, front page. I don't have time to respond to all your reviews, but a huge to thankyou everyone for the feedback.

"Great Song, Decent Flash"

by: Turgor
date: February 4, 2008

I remember being more impressed by this flash when i first saw it in 2005, it doesn't really withstand the test of time. But the pacing is still pretty good, matches the feel of the music.

I also want to reply to Pitiful-Joy below me, you seem to put a lot of importance on the wrong part of the metaphor. Sure, the song was about loosing yourself to drugs as much as space travel, but I think that this song will go down in music history as a song that tells an aspect of the story of human perception of itself at the beginning of the age where man went into space. The mindblowing expanses of the universe seemed to open up to us, what better analogy for people to understand both the elation and desperation of drugs than this new (final?) frontier.

"Eh."

date: February 2, 2008

It's very well-thought-out, but this is a song referencing heroin use. When Major Tom gets disconnected and lost in space, he's really losing himself to a drug habit.

That being said, once I got past it, this was a good video.

I used to listen to it a lot, and then it'd get stuck in my head xD

But anyways, great job. And I love the sound quality
