Butterflies in the Rain

[OzzieJohnFerguson]

A delightful video, many thanks.

[hardrocker2110]

if its raining hard enough to push the keys in from a leak, i wouldnt wanna stand outside

[Zoooooooooooooooook]

Soooo this is what happens when you piss on your piano.....

[MozartJunior22]

If this is what happens when the roof is leaking over the piano, i'll make my roof leak.

[xoxAshh137]

[KawhackitaRag]

AWESOME!

[GoonieGirl1]

hahaha!!!! Could you imagine that fish swimming in mercury? :)

[xoxAshh137]

that water has some crazy velocity to be able to push down those piano keys

[Crystalheart1212]

So cool!

[Bandicoot803]

I somehow have to think of an episode of "Three's Company" where the following question occured:

"How do you call a musical Fish?"

-"A piano tuna!"

[tigercubgurlie]

LOL

[Reservoirdogg89]

haha the fish got bored so he made his own little tune haha love it

[HawkeHound]

Wow! :-D

[Karcasstic]

You'd think the fish would have squirted all the water out from his bowl.

[7thFleetFilmFest]

Yay! Absolutely loved it :D

[Screwtape07]

Cute!

[markbark94]

that is some heavy rain lol

wish i had a fish that could do that heh

[AsakiSun]

I love when the butterfly goes into the piano, it's always so awesome to watch the hammers hit the harp. =3 Sometimes I like to take the front panel off my piano to watch the hammers while I play. XD;;;

[Gummybear4444]

Me to. It's fun because you can see all the little hammers going up and dwon.

[Edragon3000100]

Wow great job. good piano sync.

[cadinhocarvalho]

This is a Kurzweil piano sound!!!

[cc213t]

You're right! We used a Kurzweil MicroPiano, which had only been out a few years when the film was made.

[Gossamer89]

I'm surprised one of the water droplets didn't take out the butterfly XD i like how you had the butterfly go inside the piano too. 4 stars!

[ciccarone]

This is one of my favorite songs, and i love the animation. Great job, pixar here we come. What made you pick this song? No one except no one knows it.

[psyquack]

Genious!

[MadameFendi]

Belissimo! Beautiful! I love the butterflies and the gorgeous piano composition. Thanks for posting this!

[fraisejuteuz]

the end is fun with the fish !!

[TheHazeyQ]

Gorgeous!!! I'm going to embed it in my (Hazel Quinn's)Ultimate Piano Blog! Yummy!

[NatureGirl118]

Haha!It was a fish!:)

[thunderdome1982]

Very very good job. I love it. Congratulations.

[138lunchbox]

cute

[twosweethounds]

My son says:

the animation is really nice... i just think "butterflies in the rain" would maybe have somewhat of a sadder tune to its title... or at least thats what i would do. but whatever. its your animation, im not the boss of you.

[maellerosanne]

Thats so cool ! I LOVE IT ! OMG ! wow ! XD

[jhonea66]

Excellent animation dude, you rock!!

[safeteyline]

Excellent work on this man, i can't believe how creative you are, Thank You for the entertainment!

[astralrock]

Amazing!

[teresahan1991]

the fish could die after that, ahaha.

[Morahman7vnNo2]

Ha! That Would Have To Be Some Really Heavy Water.

[TecForce2008]

or very sensitive keys

[Morahman7vnNo2]

For The Key To Be So Sensitive, It Would Have To Have Super Light Hammers.

[Love00Mother00Earth]

Or maybe the raindrops are super-heavy. Who cares, its an animation. Speaking of which, I loved it.

[cc213t]

This film is available on the DVD "Computer Animation Extravaganza" which was released in 2000.

[KikiKingr]

HA the goldfish at the end..

[shawlom77]

A great video. Continue producing!!!

[escher677]

Outstanding. Thank you for sharing ;O)

[elisan693]

That was FANTASTIC animation! I also love the music! Beautiful job, CC213!

[gnamp]

This must be another meaning of the expression 'heavy rain' ;)

[amerikaisdeath]

Jesus that would take forever but very nice job..

[zeramino]

amazing, was that on the Art Of Illusion program AoI??????

[Rainalot]

It looks like it takes place in a dance studio.

[MrRandomPerson]

Very well animated. Love the piece as well. Where can I get the sheet music?

[orgelbear]

I have an original copy of the music and would be willing to share it with you.

[MrRandomPerson]

sweet! you going to upload it somewhere or something?

[SeanGray]

Bravo. I imagine the procedural part derived from the player piano roll is what determines which keys are depressed/hammers are struck, and where the drops fall? Really great.

[bigcity233]

Facinating video. This recording by Frank Milne was also available in Duo-Art format. I think this piece was recorded by Milne after the 1930 merger of Duo-Art and Ampico and thus available in both formats. It's a great a little tune beautifully arranged by Milne who headed up the popular music recording depts. of Aeolian Duo-Art and Ampico.

[Emaan]

That was at once strangely entertaining and very nice. I really liked that tune, it took me back to the 20's.

[EsliYoshi]

Simples e Criativo... e antigo tbm... legall...

[roninelwood]

kool...when I was real little raindrops splashing on the sidewalk reminded me of butterflies...strange, huh?

[Druaga1]

very nice video. i liked the fish at the end :)
