You know what I just realized talking to prime? No one will know who the guy playing maracas is.

It's none other than MediaMan! :D

I killed myself laughing!!!!!

OMG...I'm dead. That is just way too good. I loved Snuffie on the trumpet. That made me spit my coke all over the screen....well...maybe not...but most of it came out my nose.

Media "maracas" man

That would help... attending any of Prime's gatherings ensures you a spot in the "anals" of Short-Media-ness. Prof will never be forgotten. Many years (20 or 30 or 40) from now when Prof dies, his SMx Rig will be named "Prof's Red Rocket" ;D

Awesome job! I love it. What a great way to start a morning. :)

For whoever was wondering, the song is called Tank! and it's by Yoko Kanno.

Thanks for the kinds words. :cheers:

i feel so left out of that video... maybe i should try attending one of the annual lans eh?Actually, one big factor was whether you had a pic in the Yearbook thread in the pub. 90% of the pics were from there. I also went by facial expression and whether it was a clear head shot or had a hand, etc in the way or was too small. I also couldn't get everyone in due to time constraints - every person was another 20 minutes of Photoshop and drawing. :-/

Yoko Kanno wrote the songs for the anime of 7 OVAs, 13 TV series and 10 movies, and this is one of them. That flash video was totally cool as well.

I saw this just after joining the forums and didn't appreciate it nearly as much as I do now that I can put a name and personality to the faces.

Keebs that is just pure genius. Must say....Snuffie definitely steals the show :D

My daughter (Tonks here at S-M) sent me this email after seeing the video yesterday. Since she's too <s>stubborn</s> shy to post it herself, I'll do it for her:

That was nerdy. You're a nerd. You're such a nerd that you and your nerd friends should run a site where you help aspiring nerds become nerdier by answering their nerd questions. And then when your nerd site has its two year anniversary, you should make a nerdy video where you paste pictures of you and your nerd friends' heads over comically simplified people playing instruments.

Wait. You already do all those things.

...Carry on.

(It was cute, really.)

You seriously think there won't be a new one? ;) It's the only chance I ever get any more to work on my Flash skillz :ninja:

Thanks Winga & Zuntar :)
