Amazing!
Who plays the music?

There is a much better quality version of the film up on Newgrounds:

…where it was, unfortunately, totally ignored, winning no awards. Things like this aren’t hip enough for today’s kids.

The interesting thing is that at first sight it seems to be a very random thing. But it’s not just random stuff like most Newgrounds collabs; there are mini-plotlines and certain themes in there.

I highly recommend checking out the other works by the three artists which have Newgrounds accounts. Particularly:

“Los Dias Sin Dias� and “The White, the Black� by scarydoll (Andrei Bakhurin):

“Selva� by Art-hur:

“Hanged Man’s Elegy� and “Smile� by sarcazm (Aleksandr Wasilewski):

All three of them are animation artists of considerable talent.

Terrific! I have a feeling this was as much fun to make as it was to watch. Russian animation has always been top notch and really inventive.

hurray… I dig it. animation for the sake of madness with a kick arse tune… just as god intended

loved it! thanks for posting jerry

Haha, I love this. I like how in some of the scenes, the humor is in the loop itself.

Inspiring!! Reminds me of why I got into animation in the first place… it’s fun!

Very enjoyable! Animation’s greatest appeal for me, is just seeing inert drawings spring to life. Like a flipbook, sometimes the lo-tech approach has the greatest capacity to amaze and amuse.

Thanks, Sal, and Jerry! (and Niffiwan —for the update)

Lo tech eternally oozes integrity. The late animator/director George Dunning (”Yellow Submarine”) once did similar stuff, deliberately showing the entire camera platen while his animated cartoon played on a post-it sized note, a few years before the invention of the 3-M Post-It Note.

This is fantastic — I wanna make my own now! I love the use of desks and the like as backdrops… Amazing what you can do with a pack of post-its and a little elbow grease!

Norman McLaren would feel very proud :-)

Thad G. says: “George Dunning (â€?Yellow Submarineâ€?) once did similar stuff”. I agree these shorts reminded me of that film, “Damon the Mower”. I wish I could find a copy of it, it’s a classic. As Damon moves around the frame the paper moves to keep him in the center of the frame.

Really great!

There are some wonderful little gems in there… beautiful!
:)

Fantastic! Thank you Jerry! And it also reminds me of George Griffin’s flip-book films, which I loved so. And yes, I agree with Zee- definitely reminds me of why I wanted to be an animator in the first place! Bravo to the filmmakers. What fun…

OK, THAT was impressive!
