SHORTNESS / ONE-JOKE / JELLY-RELATED ALERT

This is an animation I made a few months ago while I was working on some school work. At the time, I saw a really weird Smucker's commercial on TV where a boy was asking his Dad what he should be when he grew up. The dad said something lame along the lines like, "Oh, we'll see one day, son." But my family, who was watching the ad, and I were like--"Oh ya'll KNOW his ass iz makin' sum jelleh!"

Throwdown!

So over the next two hours we peiced together this short for the heck of it, just to appreciate the moment. It's short, silly, and doesn't really make a lot of sense, especially if you've never seen the ad, but we had fun making it--and so I'm sharing it here with you. :D

Would you have married me if you saw it a 4th time?

I knew something like that had to of happened. How else would a brand of jelly acquired such a jacked up name. Feel sorry for the kid though, poor guy never had a chance at anything else.

Not much makes me laugh, maybe I'm simple -- I'd love this. I wish you could make that into one of the real commercials. I'd pay to see that on the tv. Good job man, nice humor. punchline was quick and hit hard.

"Success"

This could go anywhere, but here it is of particular significance due to the short length of the animation.

Something I have noticed about your movies is that dispite the high quality in nearly every aspect, what really brings them togeather is often the voice acting. I'm not sure where you got your people, but hang on to them like grim death. Case in point: this entire clip is made with just 5 words (now I wonder which ones THEY might be). The tone, the delivery, the pause leading up to it. Gold. And it seems so natural. On one hand it's often the case that a single line may have dozens of takes before an acceptable one is made, but on the other it's hard to imagine the line delivered any other way, because any other way just wouldn't work.

Course I may just be looking to hard into it, and I may be trying to attribute the overall feel these videos tend to give me to a single aspect undeservingly, but there is something to your work that is above the rest in many ways. Keep it up.

After I come up with the idea, getting the voices I need may take just a few days. TW is a great in that he has no shame, he's easy to contact, and he is always willing to help out--and he always gets really into it. We share the same kind of taste in humor and that really helps optimize the time in recording. Paco is really good at improvising too and can come up with some awesome scenarios. I also have a friend named Robin who has a great and natural talent for VA'ing too, she helped me voice Snow. I've got a bud named Emma who has a voice that's too cool for her own body, and she's helping me out on my next major project.

When all else fails, I voice the lines myself. But it's more motivating and fun getting my friends and family involved.
