Christmas Objects in 1984

Share Collapse

Sorry if the ornaments that had colored eyes can only be in 10 colors, the random color script just wouldn't work. Same with the color skin of the ornaments, as there are also only 10 colors they can be in. But a lot of them are different in someway, so I guess that's good news, right? Don't be too rough on this, this is my first commercial parody that I worked on, and some backgrounds were hard to make! Also, the ornaments that portray the Thought Police came from the Target REDCard Hero commercial since the snowman and owl (or whatever bird it is) is so cute and I wanted to borrow them in a cartoon!

I like how this is parody of the 1984 Apple Macintosh commercial! :D

For something well animated it felt like one of those commercials where you begin to hear about one thing and then it suddenly switches to speaking about something else entirely. So I am guessing that that what is shown beforehand is every object enjoying what they are before the tree destroys the monitor and we begin hearing Microsoft Windows 8 is being made?

The animation is solid and looks great. However, what was the point of showing rows of the ornaments twice in a row? Filler space? Could have shown one or two with defects for humor I suppose.

The story, as far as I can tell does not make much sense, since you being with ornaments... and then suddenly it is about Windows 8? Could give a better explanation of why that happens maybe.

The voice acting was terrific, sounds like they are truly selling their point across of putting some ideology into people's minds. The music was also nice and gave a feeling of kindness for the holidays.

Overall, great animation and voice acting. The story/commercial itself did not make as much sense.

I'm confused. What would windows have to do with christmas???

TheRealNat23 responds:

Nothing. In this commercial, it's Christmas objects recasting Big Brother, the heroine, proles and Thought Police.

For some reason, this cartoon made me extremely nervous. Also, I think you should focus on timing dialogue....

it Was Alright..But What Was With The Sound Effects?

TheRealNat23 responds:

Thanks for the review, and besides, there was sound effects in the original too!
