You know it's funny to read some of the comments and people really have nothing better to do with themselves and think so lowly of themselves they have to find SOMETHING to criticize..job well done...if there are sync issues I missed them...and his fingers don't move bc HE"S NOT A REAL PERSON!!
I know all drummers think that Neil Peart WALKS on water. I guess I didn't realize he could PLAY DRUMS on it, too! (Q: How many drummers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: Only one. But the rest of them argue about how much better Neil Peart could've done it.)
I've LOVED this song for 30-plus years. This animated video has been around for a while, but I really appreciate the attention to detail. It took a lot of work and it REALLY paid off. Great job.
@LaughingPeanutStudio too simple??? did you know he has but a mere 7 piece in his basement? as the age old adage goes.... it's not the size... lol a good player can make a bad instrument sound good but a good instrument still make a bad player sound bad hahaha
Truly a stellar production, but disappointed that the poster did not allow iPad playback. While I respect that decision, I am not clear on the reasoning behind it.
YYZ is the code for Toronto international airport. i've been listening to this album since i bought Moving pictures 30 years ago on vinyl, and just realized what YYZ meant looking at my suitcase one day about 2 years ago...
Oh My God! I first was like, What the hell is this shit? but when I started looking all the details, I was amazed! this is Super Awesome! =D Sick Video! xD
I'm a huge Rush fan, and into 3D as well. This is amzing work. I love the intro as I know YYZ is the call letters (or whatever they are called) for the Airport there. Another cool fact, the guitar rift (starts on a triangle? for first few measures) at the very beginning is YYZ in morse code. Great modeling and timing your keyframes, must have taken forever.
This video is incredible. It takes a good drummer to be able to put this together, correct? Seeing this CG dude play almost makes the whole tune seem deceptively easy - like each fill is programmed into his hands and feet without the chance of messing up. But I appreciate that when there was a serious fill, the camera angle went TO the appropriate drums and not away from. A lesser animator might have cheated by showing the plane during the tricky parts. Was there a video reference to use?
Im currently drawing storyboards and working directly with Bobby Standridge (creator/animator of this GENIUS video)on a new computer animation starring ALOT of different drummers ( STAY TUNED TO HAVE YOUR MIND BLOWN FOLKS!!)... The guy is AWESOME to work with.
matthew, bt sayin that, i know you are not a neil peart fan. its cool tho, just know that a lot of ppl find this one of the most amazing things in the world.
what an awesome video! it must have taken forever to make that. this has to be one of the coolest vids i've ever seen. i never really thought much about this song, but when it's played with this video it now seems like a really cool song to me.
