My animation of the TMBG song "New York City", using only type, including the images. The timing was thrown off when I uploaded it to YouTube. This was done as part my grad program at the School of Visual Arts.

  • sadly, I had a synched version posted that I had figured out how to do later, and it was eventually pulled off.

  • the timing is off

  • yeah, i mentioned that already. blame youTube.

  • great song but doesn't have the charm of the original CUB version

  • WOW! I muted the vid and played the song separately. It's amazing when it's in sync :D That must have taken some real determination. I love it

  • If you get it slightly wrong and the video's ahead of the words, click pause/play twice quickly in Tab 1.

    If you get it slightly wrong and the video's behind the words, go to Tab 2 and click pause/play twice quickly. Return to Tab 1 to view.

  • How to view this synched:

    1. Open the video in two tabs/windows. Pause both at the beginning. We'll call them Tab 1 and Tab 2. Tab 1 will be providing the video and Tab 2 will be providing the sound.

    2. Mute Tab 1.

    3. Start Tab 1 playing until a few words are displayed on screen. Pause it.

    3. Start Tab 2 playing.

    4. Quickly switch to viewing Tab 1 and be ready to press play.

    5. Press play when the words you can hear match the words you can see.

    6. Enjoy the rest of the song synched!

  • I'm hearing this version for the first time (how did I not know about this?) and it's actually pretty great. Color me pleasantly surprised.

  • One of my favorite bands covering a song by one of my other favorite bands...does it get any better?

  • I am impressed.

  • Great song, and well done. Cub does it sexier though.
