LOVE the tiny bit of forced perspective on the elements moving through the shot!
Have a question if you ever have time to respond: how do you track/plan all of the STUFF in these shots? Do you use like an X/Dope sheet? (I only have trad animation to compare it to). I'd lose track! And they loop!
Working on the full break down right now! I blocked out the primary movement of me/camera/police chair, but all of the stuff moving through frame was all improvised. I just moved it two floor boards every frame and brought in something new when it felt right
Oh
Dang
I can’t read.
Well it’s still cool.
These kind of photo montages are typically taken across years or feature some kind of radical shift in the environment, so just filled in the blank with the other [time] word
Congrats on being the first animated short film in 2025 I'll download and keep.
The furniture to show forward motion was brilliant, but having the camera move to show swerving motion was [chef's kiss]. Well done "banging the lightbulb".
This is absolutely incredible. The stop motion itself is fantastic already, but you change camera angles, the floor moves, your hair and face are blown back, the smoke trails, the police lights. Just absolutely immaculate work, I'm blown away.
Wow!
When I was in a three-year Animation program back when in the early 80s, we watched NFB films, particularly those of Norman McLaren (“Neighbours”). The stop motion effects really got us going and we played ed around with it. So fun. So much work too. 🙂
phenomenal work. my favorite part is this bit at 0:07 where your head lags behind the rest of you. i thought it had to be photomanipulated, but no, you just did that with your body. such incredible animation principles put into real life photography
This is so completely random, but I was listening to the song “Medication” by David Wimbish & The Collection when I came across this video, and it just fit so well with it, like it was meant to be a music video. Anyway, this was awesome, man.
Very cool. Can’t imagine how you nailed the continuity so well. I keep rewatching and am amazed at how the overall effect makes it irrelevant that the back wall doesn’t consistently recede. 10 days well spent!
Nice job. I assume an air ventilator was used to enhance the chair speed acceleration effect. Not too much, though just enough and very well synchronized, not syncopating the flow. Well done.😉👍
Forwards _and_ backwards (at least the original short was shown that way at conventions, until the perforations on the 16mm film started to show excessive wear).

(Looks cooler side-by-side with original but Bluesky seems to crop vertical videos)

Why is it TikTok vertical aspect ratio
Just askin

How many times did you pretend to do this with your arm rest before thinking, "Hey, there's an animation project here..."?
What a crack !
I will always appreciate the time and effort that goes into stop motion.
Reminds me of something...

Congrats!
This is amazing.
Bonkers.....but brilliant
I didn't know he had a Bluesky
And like Count said, he has a YouTube channel full of these kinds of content
seriously kickass work!!

This is a technical marvel, by the way. Absolutely killer.
😹
It be so epic!
So well done!

amazing
a full blown action chase scene involving office chairs :D
the director stuffed the movie with subliminal messages about the movie industry screwing over indiependent movie makers.
it might have been cheesy but its still a great movie.
