A new project I finished recently... All the frames are hand-drawn.
I made the animation in a minimalist way on purpose, It's meant
to be a simple illustration for my music. I created the music and
sound effects from A to Z using synths, my new Roland drum kit
and Ableton Live. I'll post another short animation soon (Walking
Lion) with more frames per second and I might start time-lapse
projects as well in the near future. Thanks for watching...
FYI, this is my SoundCloud page .
You can also see the above short film on You Tube at this link .

Very cool! I know animating can be a time consuming process(not that I animate myself, but I know people). I think you did such a fantastic job. But not gonna lie, it was hard to watch as I was about to go to bed because my eyes are bugging out. All the black and white movement probably didn't help. Haha, so I'll probably watch it again when I am more wide eyed and awake.

This is really cool. From an animation stand point I feel that it could use more inbetweens because it does look a little jumpy but really awesome.

The road's driving me crazy... so are the doors but the teddybear's just so cuuute
And the flowers seems as if they were glowing and how the butterfly turns into a gear-wheel... I liiike it
(the music's giving me kinda headache, but I think that just because I'm reallyreally tired)
-> amazing work

This is brilliant!
I like the music very much and the animation is quite impressive! The simplicity and monochrome look add to the overall feel I'd say. Stunning work!

I knew some parts looked familiar...but seeing something done by you is always a treat! It takes quite the imagination to create what you have here.

I wasn't sure whether I was tripping or not when I watched the video. Point is, very good. Maybe if you add more frames to it, it'd be more fluid. It's still good though. :3

When I first saw the little snippets, I wasn't expecting something like this. It was really amazing and fun to watch!

I don't know if it's because of my computer/internet, because of the size of this animation or if you slowed the frame rate to fit the music better. But it seemed to quite choppy. Which is odd because the gun part that you uploaded sepperately was smooth, but in this movie it seemed choppy. Same with the clock turning into a guy scene.
Nonetheless amazing work. Animating frame by frame takes a lot of time and effort, and making your own music on top of it all... is awesome. Great drawings in it and I liked the music, it really fit the movie as a whole. As always, I'm amazed how multi-talented you are.
Keep up the good work!

I think it's your computer or connection because it's at a similar speed than the excerpts posted previously

Yea, was what I suspected. I think it might be too large a file for my connection/computer. Because the other of your animations that are smaller, work just fine.
