How did you make this

[FatalInstinct3]

This guy deserves to get well known.

[ankoku37]

The only thing I can think of is that the video for the chorus could have been a bit more creative. But other that that, great!

[Edwardlover15]

This was pretty amazing, not gonna lie!!

[jhonavon]

Great job.

Is that red stapler a Swingline, by any chance?

[AshrakMurgo]

@ebwarg "they took my stapler"

[pennyvanni]

Wow! Love this video, been a fan of the song for awhile but I am very impressed with the animation in this one.

[ding0josh]

What program was used to create this?

[Rabidus123]

Picture of a Mandelbrot fraction could be a nod to Mandelbrot Set

[flashcat7777]

@Rabidus123 You're kidding, really?

[AllAroundBang]

Thats damn good, I bet it took a long ass time to render...

[sevsquad]

@AllAroundBang if it didn't I will eat my hat

[chaosalbedo]

@sevsquad ive rendered bigger and longer >_> took 3 days to render for one thing i did when screwing around a while back

[SweetLaura286]

This is my favorite video for this song. Great job! The amount of work to accomplish this... wow.

[Vrathal]

Also, one of the pictures on the wall is of a monkey/pony stuffed animal, a nod to JoCo's "Skullcrusher Mountain" song.

[steelie11]

I cant believe that a fail animation with no color beat this masterpiece

You, sir have my sorrow.

[randomcrackers]

code monkey singing? 3:10 fritos mtn dew

[Fluffishy]

this makes living alone seem....fun?

[Shadras9]

Beige bears on the wall, too.

[JonnyBoy1000000]

There's also a Mandlerot Set on the wall

[JonnyBoy1000000]

Code Monkey reference! Awesome!

[schwagcast]

Great music by Jonathan Coulton!

[flipjester]

[Dakrockson]

HAHA he had Fritos and Mountain Dew on his desk, Reference to Codemonkeys by Jon Coulton

[CommunityRiot]

Hah, I loved the inclusion of Fritos and Mountain Dew, nice cross reference with code monkey!

[Flasimbufasa]

@CommunityRiot And I am tasting some pills right now. And I check my messages, but I don't have any messages.

[sevinPackage]

Well done! I particularly enjoy the addition of other drugs (Cutzies is hilarious - why not just pay the other people in line?). Good video!

[EralForgan]

I like the solution as to why the date never showed, lol.

I love this song, I can listen to it all day... when I take my Song-sounds-awesome pill.

[Demotipper]

[mynx76]

[Nemitta]

Ohh very cool I loved it and the whole messageX thing was an awesome touch!

[RoramBenjimouse]

what did you use to make this?

[moviescout]

this son has sick lyrics, but it still rocks!!!

[doodoo120]

Ahh, this is definitely competition material.

[Umbramancer]

Haha! This is pretty good

[sx07]

Mountain Dew and Fritos. Lol. If you dont get the reference listen to Code Monkey, another JoCo song.

[jodeln1]

[aranyria]

[zagreus987]

Only one word for this fantastic

[Tjac]

nice touch by the way with the fritos and the mountain dew

[Tjac]

heh "Still no messages"

[wowhelpme1]

how did you make that?!??!?!?!

[amandaatheGREAT]

haha im commenting again im sorry for then kinda mean comment im like that i didnt know people on youtube were so sensative [:

[gir5947]

not bad. you should have made it a bit faster paced to match the song better. other than that well done. ^.^

[amandaatheGREAT]

the other vidoes were better no offence

[demetrius3d]

No offense taken. People have different tastes.

[holymarine1]

realy give me some steak tastes better pills

[Cypresswhisker2]

that is really cool!

[CallMeMrSexy]

i want some "steak tastes better" pills

[Shaviv]

Probably amphetamines 'd do that for you.

[Selkiematt]

Pretty good, did you make it from scratch? I liked some of it, but not all of it. My favorite is the one by blackcatbonifide, check his out. XD

[Sp613g]

Don't you mean (Her's)

Lol ^_^

[Selkiematt]

Didn't know her gender

[mykasoda]

Wow, this video is great. Love the song and you really do it justice! great job.

[oakemsmagir]

Amazing animation altho i still had to watch this one on mute (sorry but if people can't hit the notes i can't listen to it). Which program was used and did you do it yourself?

[langerCAN]

this should have won and the blackcat won is my second fav i think

[0psid3d]

hell i love this song:P

[Paradox244]

PopSci takes odd ads. Every issue I check the add section in the back. You wouldn't believe the pseudoscientific crap that they advertise back there. Anti gravity, mind reading, crystal healing, the works. They run good articles though.

[L70EliteOrcHunter]

porn at work O.o (1:14)

[KaraConga]

Pause at 1:14 and look at the computer xD

[theominousthey]

Haha. Fritos and Mountain Dew. I see what you did there...

[Taighax]

2 words: code monkey?

[MissWonkoCoyote]

For Some Reason the Floating Objects remind me of How the VeggieTales Characters pick up stuff...

[Tchyrizel]

Hey dude your not wrong, I actually think that too! :S weird huh?

[LinkzWorLD]

you guys taking the pills too? haha.. Veggie Tales rocks. O.o

[Tchyrizel]

haha! lol nice. Man its been ages since Iv seen Veggie Tales. Should go rent em or something =D

[toxiqua]

LMAO so true!

[demetrius3d]

It *is* very "Veggie Tales". Big Idea used to abide by what the "no arms can't pick stuff up" rule.

(Bob the Tomato) "...Play this."

(Larry the Cucumber) "Bob! I don't have any hands!"

But, they have completely abandoned that lately. There's no way I was going to be able to do decent character animation in just a week. So, I decided to just omit the actual characters and do a POV.

[dietcokemygod]

Rather watch the dwarf fly around then watch clouds lol

[belzburd]

tripy man

[sweetheart202292]

i luv this song

[luc500500]

Wow! It's great!

[Zeetermin]

nice effects

[TeKnObYtE391]

WOW, OMG thats AMAZING!!!

[demetrius3d]

I uploaded a tweaked and re-rendered version of this. Image quality is still bad after it gets re-compressed by YouTube. But... there's not much that can be done about that.

[BucketHatBobby]

I find it kindof ridiculous that this came secnd to a stick animation. I mean, it was good, but doesn't compete with this.

Great job.

[wolfmama1]

Hard for me not to be biased as the creator of *this* video is the father of my two "cubs", but I thought the winning video was pretty clever storytelling. I imagine a number of things were taken into consideration in choosing a winner--the animation being just one of them.

Of course, I'm happy that people have nice things to say about my husband's entry. (Almost as happy as I was to hear that he was finally *done* working on said animation!)

[spiffworld]

Holy cow! Great entry for the contest. Good luck.

[demetrius3d]

Thanks. It didn't win. But, second place is (pretty much by definition) the next best thing... Right? I didn't have time to render it at a better quality setting before the deadline. So, I'm going to upload a new file. Some of the jokes were lost in the low-res haze.

[anniekate76]

Nice usage of Fritos and Mountain Dew, too. :)

[demetrius3d]

:) There's lots of extra little jokes and references in there. This was a fun project!

[anniekate76]

Cool effects! What program did you make this in?

[demetrius3d]

Thanks! Everything was modelled and rendered in Lightwave 3D. And, I did what little editing was needed in Adobe After Effects.
