The official music video for "The Faster the Treadmill" by I Fight Dragons!
The quality got crunched a bit, but you can see an HD version if you go to my profile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Commentary:
I began work on this shortly after completing Grumatorium, and it was a pretty intense project. The band utilizes a lot of game controllers and NES era material into their music and performances so I approached this video from a similar perspective, starting by designing and animating gameplay from a fictional 8-bit game that the video would take place in.
The result was "the Adventures of Puddlenaut," in which a shark-armed diver hero does battle with deep sea creatures in order to mine mystical power crystals that are abundant in the underwater kingdom. The main grunt enemies, one of which is the protagonist of the video, were modeled after drowned fetuses since I couldn't find any deep sea creatures to fit the image I was looking for. Thus I ended up calling the main character "Fetusaur" throughout production.
Check out the song on I Fight Dragons debut EP "Cool is Just a Number!" More information at: http://www.ifightdragons.

this is such a great moive !!! i love it!!!!!
i really love this movie..... i cant help to think this is a summrey of my life........ fetusaur (the main charactor) wishes for something more in life and he doesent fit in. he wishes to be the oppasite of what he is suppose to be but everyone tells him that he has to be what he is...... but in the end he finally has the chance to be what he whats to be. the music goes perficly with the moive. iv watched this at least 7 times today. if only i could choose what i wanted...........
