The Magic Hat

Author Comments

I wanted to get some practice animating without the pressure of having to redraw, trace, and scan like I usually do with The Brass Seal, or create some semblance of a story. So my roommate and I each put 8 words into a ball cap. They had to be nouns, and the idea was I would draw morphs between one object to the next. Also, I wasn't allowed to spend more than a day on any one part of the animation, and the art styles had to change as well . I got kinda carried away with some more than others and ended up doing only 7 because I work full time and it became hard to motivate myself to finish this. Below is the order I pulled the words from the hat.

1) The Great Gatsby's car (Which looks like a dong if you've read the book.)
2) Mac Tonight the McDonalds spokesperson of the 80's.
3) Cocaine substitute (Ended up being Magic coffee that turns into blow.)
4) A Taco
5) A tree raining apples
6) The girl from "The Ring"
7) ******* (I won't spoil the ending)

I really want to thank all the people who put their audio work on Newgrounds. This animation would have been OK to watch, but the music I found here really pulled it together and made it a solid animation. Thanks for sharing your skills that I don't have.

Enjoy!

This is the most random thing I have seen

There is one thing... no two things wrong

The hat is in the authors comments. I pulled the subject matter out of a hat and animated it in that order.

grrr

what the hell is wrong with you. dont put freaking random ass clowns in shit like that. you have to give people some warning. you can seriously hurt someone ike that.

punbeard81 responds:

Oh my god, random stuff on New Grounds that has never happend. Also it's not random because it's listed in the order about and tells you the process. Thanks for the 1, I'll keep it on my mantle next to my, "Most seizures given to a single class room" trophy.

LOL nice

This was a great flash and i like how you used all the songs
My favrite was Into the pit [unfinished] by mrpibbs1

Fantabular.

That was actually one of the best things I've seen on Newgrounds in a while. Good job. It was great how you connected all of the "themes" in an entertaining way.

Fantabular, is a great word. In return for me using it I offer you awesolishious. Thanks for the comment.
