Back when i watched Blamformers, you know that MASSIVE collab tom and the gang put together, my favorite part was one without audio of some 'chibi' transformers battling it out through slaps. What got me laughing out loud was the fact that most of the submissions consisted of very loud and energetic jokes with that very snazzy transformers logo popping out in between each clip. All of a sudden though, in the middle of this bursting collection of submission, this awkward, silent, 5 second video appeared. And just before i could process what just happened, the very sudden transformers graphic between each clip burst out. i was in tears of laughter.
Basically with this piece i wanted to create a similar effect except make it so bizarre you might think there's a statement behind it, but in reality it's just plain and simply what it literally is. It ended up not being accepted, probably because i didn't explain that the joke would only work best within the context of the collab setup, but most likely because it is absolute shit.
whatever the case might be, after lots of thought, i decided to just submit a simple looping cartoon of it. i only wish it made it in to see how it would have played out in the middle of the back to back gags of the collab. i can only dream of such things...
