Description Wow it actually uploaded, after 4 tries. xD

The audio doesn't behave well when the animation plays sometimes. I'm not sure why. But in reality it is all in tune with the event, even if the movie behaves like an ass. ^^

Alright, so this is my biggest animation yet. I've been working on it since around a week before thanksgiving, and I just finished this Sunday. So roughly about, 2 months maybe. So yeah.

I animated the whole thing, with no help. >3 Everything I drew myself. My first step was making up the storyboard, so I followed my storyboard to draw this xD. Of course I couldn't animate every detail that was in my sketches, so I modified things a bit to save time. From the point where Zoom asks, "Are you drunk?" to the end, I animated that all last thursday-sunday. :3 Several times I just sat there looking at a frame because I didn't know how to animate a certain movement, but in the end I figured something out.

As for Audio, I really have to thank and laugh at my uncle for voicing his character. xD He did a great job. I discovered it was a whole lot easier to animate over the already made audio. > And yeah....I used my voice for Zoom, which didn't turn out too well, but heck. XD I tried, and my uncle's idea would have given him a lisp. The clips you hear in the back, some my uncle found for me because I was too busy animating to look, and some I found myself. Others I had to make myself. Those, were the glass sliding sounds, the box, the glass hitting the table, the money hitting the table, money shifting in the pocket, and the sipping noise. (I wanted to throw a box at my step dad's car to get the audio, but he wouldn't have liked it, so I hit a cardboard box filled with paper in my room.

I showed this animation to my mom yesterday, and she was laughing hysterically. If you knew my uncle's fun personality then you'd laugh pretty hard too. As my mom thinks, I really got my character Joe just as realistic as the actual guy. XD (You hear the things he says? Well now you see what I suffered through as a child. He would play that pilot or captain CRRR thing and make his car jump forward while making a giddy laugh. xP He is pretty silly and I love him for it. :3 Plus he is a web designer and computer nerd. xD and his cat's name really is Zoom, and Zoom is kinda blue-ish grey, dark grey nose, social, loves to fetch paper balls, rides in the car, and rides on my uncle's shoulder.
(My uncle loves his Mazda, so his cat's name is also related to it.)

The whole thing was made by me. The animation, the story, the characters, the idea, the dialogue, all. (except certain audio and music. xD)
I found it rather fun, to hear all the dialogue I had written down, and command my uncle to say it. a sense of control....is good. I guess I could upload both my sketched story board, and the dialogue portion, but only if people want to see it.

I have 2 versions of this animation. One with my real name, and the other my username. ^^

Yay accomplishment!

I would have expected the cat to live, since cats have "nine lives"
Otherwise that video didn't shock me. That what happens when people get drunk.
Why do they people get drunk when type of stuff like this happen.

What gets me even more is, who the heck can the people even like beer? It smells like crap

I'm glad people have enjoyed this animation. Kinda sad though everyone wants my charicature of my uncle dead. He's a really great guy and so is his cat.

Scyrel In reply to abzde [2009-02-07 18:34:24 +0000 UTC]

I didn't kill them off, if that makes it better. I just was running out of time and this was the best way to convey my point in drunk driving.

That's a relief. But if you ever have the time you should finish it the right way. It's just too sad the way it ends now~

I didn't kill him off, cause I like the cat too.

But I was on a time crunch and I had to end it quickly.

Poor Zoom. This taught me one thing; if your drunk, get your cat to drive instead.

I have it on youtube. You can try there. It is a little harder to see the details, but the general idea and sounds are still there.

Zoom the cat (Drunk Driving) is the title.

Heh, we watched this with our cat.
She freaked out when the glass clinked, but not when Zoom screeched
Go figure.
Hah, this is an awesome animation.^^

Love that tattoo. XD
And the doubloons.
You think he'd go off in a pirate ship rather than a car.

Do you use the tablet too? Or do you use the mouse to draw your animation.

Scyrel In reply to ASAL86 [2008-01-26 08:38:49 +0000 UTC]

I use my laptop mouse to use the line tool. I do have a tablet, but I do not like those budlgy painyted lines you see in some animations. It looks too messy. I use the tablet for photoshop related things, not flash.

DarthKiwibird [2008-01-25 04:22:07 +0000 UTC]

Nice animation. I really like your style. Also to fix your sound syncing problems click the first frame of the sound being played and set the Properties to "Stream". That setting keeps the sound to sync when you export it. If you have any other problems just let me know. Keep animating!

When my teacher played it on her computer, the sound went just fine. oO Maybe because I was switching between 2 different computers with it. But thanks.

my friend is with me and she wants to leave a comment out fot you:

blood angel: I feel sorry for the cat but it was quite funny; not to mention it teaches you about drinking.

dark angel: I quite enjoyed that; and I have to agree with my friend, I feel sorry for Zoom.
