Dan MacKenzie - Stop Motion Reel 2010

[dpgroesbeck]

This is amazing work and very inspiring! Are you working at Shadow Machine again? I was thinking of submitting a reel of mine to them. I have it on my channel along with a stop motion film. Can you look at them and see if I need improvements?

[beatnic67]

Great work Dan! Always knew you'd make some amazing art!

[superduane]

Nice work man!

By the way, what on earth is that campfire guy made out of? Looks like rice crispy treats :)

[thedrummingpianist]

@Mackmation you inspire me sooo much to just go out there and make a claymation. I really do love doing that but when I watch your videos it makes me love it more. Thank you.

[imagfilmsstudios]

YOU ARE THE BEST!!

[kikolounge]

Wow Im so impressed amazing.

[cannonfodder97]

omg you animated for Robot Chicken!

[fireisfunandawsome]

the banana had a condom on its's head. i was like WTF!!!

[kirbyisadog]

Oh my bad, i looked through the blog to check if i missed anything, and i saw the post saying it will be released. Nice claymations you got here btw :)

[kirbyisadog]

when is Campfire going to be done. i stopped seing progress on your blog, did you stop working on it? I know claymations like that take a long time(i make them too), im just wondering what happened. It's been almost a year.

[XanKumori]

Why did you put your number on the video? O_o

[faceofdoomness]

It's amazing to see how much you've progressed over the years. :D

I bet you're gonna become one of their lead animators in Robot Chicken!

Good luck with your senior film and great job with this reel. :)

[fingerminger]

How did you get the opportunity to do work for Robot Chicken?? We gotta collaborate sometime. You always use other people's music for your vids, did you ever think of mixing your own music??

[CadenTheGreat]

this is amazing!!! some of that is the best claymation I have EVER seen. Totally, absolutely INCREDIBLE.

[Shrankenhiemer]

Dude, nice work. It's great to see that you're getting out into the business!

[TheSapple]

what fps for the robot chicken?



[Mackmation]

@prammaven I edited the reel at 30 fps, so I didn't lose anything from the RC work. The 24fps work, like Campfire, just isn't perfectly smooth now, as it holds every few frames for 2 frames instead, but it's not too noticable.

[bleblebob]

Holy shit, you hooked a few vids to Robot Chicken, and I've seen those episodes!

[blobofblue]

You've come far

[ARandomProductionsTT]

[SpineSauce]

[watcharervideos]

[Chieftawsmcool]

Where do you buy the robot chicken doll figure like things?

[FlippytheMasterofPie]

@Chieftawsmcool They're just action figures... try Wal Mart. Or if not, Amazon.

[AnimationShorts1]

Great work! Did you work on some AdultSwim projects?

[Whatdaflink]

when did you get a job at Robot Chicken bro? I've been watching your videos forever but don't remember you ever mentioning that

[Mackmation]

@Whatdaflink I worked on the show for a few months in the summer and again in December, but wanted to finish school and make my senior film. I'll graduate in 3 months.
