Stupid Pet Tricks

"Stupid Pet Tricks" music video by The Dinosaurs Remember.


The song itself is much like the video- fast, intentionally simple and occasionally jarring. Juxtaposing the mundane with the impossible, "Stupid Pet Tricks" ricochets and rambles while animals fight, clouds dance, and dinosaurs wear business suits.


This is the first major Flash project I've ever undertaken, started approx. 3 days after I first got the program. Over 3000 frames and a month later, I definitely had more respect then I ever imagined I would have for the incredible work ethic of animators.


The song is the shortest track on the album "Bite Harder", which is coming out in May on our website.


Hope you guys enjoy. :)

Good.

My only problem being that it loops, and I watched it three times before I realized that.

Nice but disturbing

I really liked it, its really entartaining... and the rithm is kind of catchy
The way you aniamted people was great too

my only compain is that you didnt included any rabbit on it, hahahahaha

TheDinosaursRemember responds:

Doh, a rabbit would've been good. I could've made loop bounce to the beat!

Oh well. Maybe someday we'll make a remix? :)

Well Done!

The song is not "of my taste" but the song itself was okay, the video is amazing. Did you doy all of it FBF or was they some program you used to make the people look so real? Either way bravo, the fact youy made it line up with the song so good, only shows even more, how much effort you put into this, great job!

TheDinosaursRemember responds:

For any parts with me or my band mate, we recorded ourselves with really terribile webcams and I drew over each frame manually. If you've ever seen the movie Waking Life, it's essentially the same technique.

Fluid, and well choreographed animation.

I have to say, choice of song and the way you animated your flash to express the song is very well done. I can tell you put some time into the animation, even without looking at the comments you make on your own videos.

What I especially enjoyed about "Stupid Pet Tricks" Is that the song in itself is sudden, jarring and abrupt, just like your epiliptic animation. The song in itself is worth hearing for people like me, but it is hard to enjoy properly without 'DVD features' such as Play, Pause, fastforward, etc.

Though this may be one of the first major flash project you took, I believe you did very, very well on it. I give it a thumbs up.

wow

i personally didn't enjoy this but it doesnt take away from the fact that it is a well done flash, good animation and it flowed nicely > D
