Artist's Comments

Recently, my flashes have gotten next to no favourite and no comments. I'm beginning to get real angry with my watchers, AM I GETTING CRAPPER AT FLASH?? WHAT AM I NOT DOING THAT I SHOULD BE DOING?? WHAT DO I DO TO GET MOAR COMMENTS AND FAVS?????
Well I thought and thought, and remembered that fan flashes get heaps of comments. Eddsworld fan flash, deviant christmas, frz fan flash, etc. dominate my animation's comments.

This is, put simply a pathetic attempt to get people to view my shit.

Hope it works c:

In all seriousness, I'll tell you the whole story.

Liek roughly a year ago, when I finished animating Xare Yare Zukai (It's in my scraps now), I realised how bad my frame by frame was. Even though I was tracing the hare hare yukai thing from whatever the anime is called, it was unsmooth sketchy, and basically, shithouse.

So shortly after, I decided to lower the frame rate to 18 frames per second, so I could actually animate every single frame. Aight so I was very determined, what, for the first 2 frames? That's when I gave up. Too big a project, too crappy flash skills, impossible.

After about 7 months of using flash later (and thanks to a few tutorials on shiftlimits about easing, THANKS THOSE TUTS ARE AWESOME), I found the fla for my 2 frame animation. I began to continue on this animation, however, only drawing the keyframes. At the same time, I composed a dance song for the animation to synchronise to. Oh, btw I shouldn't forget to mention I rotoscoped the keyframes of a youtube video and did the easing trick from those shiftlimits tutorials ([link]). So I finished about 60% of rotoscoping meow meow's dance loop and gave up again.

And 3 weeks back from today, I continued animating this. It was really tedious and annoying, but I finished it. I guess the most annoying part, AND I MEAN THE MOST ANNOYING PART, was the last bit, the DDR mockup. Jesus Christ DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD THAT IS TO SYNC PROPERLY, ARGH I DON'T EVEN WANT TO TRY TO FIX IT, ARGH!!!

So yes. This is properly the smoothest and longest animation I have ever done that is worthwhile watching. Seriously. I am actually proud of this, so comment and fav pl0x.

REAL SMOOTH WITH THE MEOW MEOW

We don't love "because", but "despite".

This is why there is no such thing as perfect. A flawless beauty would be blank without any appeal nor character. Its scars are what defines it and what inspires emotion... from that moment, it becomes art.
Yeah..getting no comments sucks..

..

Good job though lol It was really entertaining hah. Maybe I should do fanart >_>

*Feels kind of bad*

I always look at your work but never comment or fav most of the time. I'm just to lazy.

I like the DDR part. He stopped just like a real BG dancer when steps are still on screen.

In this world everything changes except good deeds and bad deeds; these follow you as the shadow follows the body.
This kicks soo much ass you dont understand!!

I flushed out the feeling of me being the shit
cause I was leaving skid marks on everywhere I sit.
nice video entertaining :D,

just putting my 2 cents dont know if u care, but imo ppl. like ur animations when they are funny/messed up themes like the 4 chan memes and stuff, at least i know i do, the most random and funny stuff u pack the more ppl. will like them, in a way its sad 'cause quality is losing to quantity nowdays but such is life, so imo if u wanna get huge amounts of views, do stuff like b4, meow meow and 4 chan battles or whatever else that comes out /b/ and /m/ its entertaining and newbs like me like it
THIS IS EPIC (not Sparta)

Faved.

xDDD
Some great animating there, but you can't necessarily base judgement on how good your work is by how many favs or comments you get.
