This is the best one yet Elliot, on all levels. It's the best story. It's the best story for the style. And the style in this one is really resolved. There are moments in some of the others where some of the animation feels a little too good for the raw stuff around it. In this one the depth of field, and cut out style-but with squash and stretch, have become something all it's own.

I look forward to the next one!

I hope you're not suggesting that anything I do is less than perfect!!!!!

Boris Hiestand said...

everything you do is less than perfect. That's also what makes it all so interesting.
I also think this is the best one, it has a much better tempo to it than the others. Probably has a lot to do with the choice of music this time... it helps

I love this one, it's brillant!!
A lot of nice graphic shapes and the music works very well with the animation.

Bravo! clap! clap! clap!

I really like this one- they are getting better and better.

However, I would now like a short film from you on oral sex.

Elliot Cowan said...

I have that one I made with you and Boris last year...

Matthew Cruickshank said...

Oh yes I remember. I was the cameraman.

Elliot Cowan said...

Yes, you were the "cameraman" and Boris was "the tripod".

Desiree said...

HAH!! Brilliant Stuff! The animal animation goes so well with their design.
See ya round!

Elliot Cowan said...

Thank you Desiree.
You raise an interesting point actually.
There is not a lot of thought into the designs (or anything I draw actually).
I try and arrange a situation whereby there's one "big" movement they can make - something expressive.

The song was a very good choice for this adventure.

Very much enjoyed.

Elliot, another great adventure. Good to hear EELS, they are a fantastic band and it works really well with this. The saucy women are kinda sexy too... Blog lookin' good as always.

HAZAAAAAAH

PS. It is NOT billy bragg on my reel, just a kinda good impression, he would not work on monkey dust, he had a thing about working with 'the man' or something...

Bellísimo, increiblemente simple y fantástico. good work!

Elliot Cowan said...

Rich - Eels are the best. They'll be here in July I believe (by here I mean the UK, not in my bedroom).

Gooby - Thanks man. Flitty is a very good way to describe this type of animation.

Javoc - Thank you very much.
