Reviews for Stupid Day Job

Great!

I really enjoyed this, kind of reminds me of something Weird Al might have concocted (please take that as a compliment :)

I think it did carry on a bit around the mid point, but it seemed to get a second wind, so it wasn't really tedious at all. The song was inspired, really great. The animation was awesome as well. The lack of sync with the voice (especially in the ambulance) kind of threw me off a bit, but wasn't that big of a deal.

Thanks for making it, another treasure for the NG vault!

Synching was a headache, what looked right in the editing environment turned out different in .swf and .mov formats... I'll see what I can do.

I've described Wally as a hybrid between Weird Al and a folk singer, so I think you're on point there.

Length isnt bad.. good job :)

I dont understand why people complain about it. Honestly i think the length was fine. for the quality of the animation it was great. seems like you put allot of work. in my opinion people should be appreciative it was that long because that takes time and creativity.

-loved the ideas you implemented with the song. it was funny as well as witty.
-character was bright and seemed to fit quite well with the voice
-it was vibrant! dull animations tend to make you lose focus far to quickly
-it wasn't extremely long. length of an average song which is good
-it wasnt in just one scene! you jumped all over from his home to the street and
then the work place.
- YOU CAN RELATE TO IT! thats most likely the best quality. its easy to find the humor in something you can relate to

9/10 5/5

Stupid day job

I thoroughly enjoyed this cartoon because everyone can associate with having a bad job. It's still not that suiting for me because I have been looking for a job for the longest time. In fact, I am actually going to be starting next week. I still enjoyed this a lot because of how awesome the animation was. I don't know why, but it seemed like the characters were kind of flat in that they looked like pieces of paper. This is not an insult, as this worked really well.

Maybe when I am working for minimum wage I can enjoy this more. Congradulations on getting permission from Wally Pleasant to make this cartoon! Most people wouldn't care about doing something like that. I liked how there were so many visual gags going on. It was especially cool to stand up for people like janitors!

Lucky for you Stupid Day Job People...

The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts based on recent decline, that office jobs will decline by 30%.

Maybe thats not lucky... I dunno.
