Two people duke it out over a five-dollar bill. Hilarity ensues.

This is originally a commercial for an online forum, MoneyMakerGroup.com. Stop-motion photography (or slow-motion, in this case) was used to shoot this. Where the shooting only took an hour, the processing time - including Photoshop enhancement, animation and sound effects implementation - took over 8 hours. This commercial also gives a taste of what to expect for my upcoming 5-minute Flash film, Warriors of Aidoios.

You can watch a higher resolution of this commercial over at zerom3.com, as well as find out a little bit more about my film project. Hope you'll enjoy this!

"Great style"

date: September 6, 2006

I love your style. It's pretty snazzy. It reminds me of one scene in "The Life Aquatic" where Steve is smoking. Keep this up and you will definitely be going places.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your stuff soon.

"short but sweet"

date: May 26, 2006

i thought it would be longer when you said how much time went into it,
i wanted to see more, it ended tooo sooon.
other than that it was good

Author's Response:

Well it's a commercial after all. Not many commercials you see go longer than 30 seconds. Warriors of Aidoios will be around 5 minutes though when it releases this summer, so watch out for it! ;)

"pretty good"

date: May 25, 2006

i kinda liked it. the stop motion with the chick in the air must have been hard, unless it was photoshopped.

the sound was a bit repetitive.

overall it was pretty good.

Author's Response:

No, it was all shot via slow-motion photography. My photographer shot it as the girl jump-kicked me. xD

I must admit I could've used a bit more variations on the footsteps sound effect, but given that I already used 14 different sound effects I would have to watch my filesize problem. ;)
