a Music video of The Big Surprise
by a grungy and smokin' band called
Smokesuit.

The visual side is a mix of cartoonish
animation and interpolated rotoscoping.
It might be a bit hard on slow comps.

I hope you all enjoy this!

"Ah, Smokesuit"

date: July 24, 2008

Smokesuit, my favourite band. It's kinds funny to see it here too, even it's not one of most famous bands on earth.

Film is so dark and gave me strange feeling. I don't know what it is. I wish there would be more flashes of their songs. Perhaps The Dance and These City Lights?

I can't give less than full points to this. It was well made, good song and most important it has something that most music videos don't have.

p.s I saw their drummer at gas station once:D I almost went to speak, but didn't dare:/

"Very Impressive"

date: May 1, 2008

You can tell that a film has had a great effect on you if you feel shivers go down your spine throughout, and it makes you think, long after it has ended. Well I have to say that this is one of these films and is a definite favourite for me. The music you picked went very well with your style of animation which is surprisingly hard to achieve. Two things I loved were the boxes of the band playing and black vine effect. The only thing I wished was that there was slightly more of the band playing. However, this is one great film with a great feeling and character.

When you move somebody with your art its probably the best thing that can happen! Thanks! Yeah and some people didnt like the band at all. They thought it was too mainstream. Well, I guess I did a good balance between them and the rest of the video seeing as they dont really have anything to do with the storyline. The band members were really hard to animate though, and I am very proud of this one!

"Very impressive music video"

by: YoinK

It started off slow and as it got going it got interesting. I really liked how you animated those black vines or whatever they were. The girl was animated very well. You have some excellent frame by frame animating skills. All the backgrounds were drawn extremely well. I really liked how you showed boxes that had animation inside that were motion tweened accross the screen. Nice job of showing a band playing to the song as well. Very cool music vid overall! :)
