Topic: Community Project concept: Albuquerque

OK, so we were talking on Skype about how awesome Weird Al's Albuquerque is and then Seán said "Hey, someone should make a music video to that." And I said "Nooo, it's ten minutes long!" and then he said:
"It would make an awesome community project."
And I agreed.

So, as if we didn't have enough community projects going already, here's the idea. The song is split up into various scenes, which we could assign to a certain animator. At the end, all the bits of song are pieced together to make one long music video.

So, approve? Disprove? Postpone? Whaddya think?

I approve. But wait for Boom Di Yata, I think. Then, we shall rise.

Well, I actually said, "Eleven minutes twenty, actually." mini/tongue

(And then that stuff about a community project.)

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, I'll join the project.

Edit: I'd really like to do the part with the one-nostriled man.

Well, let's see. The flash movie is split up into nine different scenes: Box Under the Stairs, A Magical Far Away Place, Airplane, Albuquerque Holiday Inn (One nostril man), Zelda, The Sizzler, Another Amusing Anecdote and the Final Chorus. Each one lasts from about a minute to minute and a half.

If we do make this, we should send it to Weird Al. He has a page on his website for fan made music vids (and one of them is a brickfilm mini/smile).

Re: Community Project concept: Albuquerque

I will gladly participate i this. One minute of animation is cake, and it's a good motivator to tackle some of my bigger projects. I'll keep my eyes posted here...

Okaaay...it was just a sad attempt at an in-joke....I'm fully aware I didn't write it first; it was just an idea I was toying with it. Thankfully Hazzat suggested it; I don't think I have the initiative or the leadership skills to go through with leading a CP. mini/XD

And you don't like my dancing Rabbid? O_O Travesty!
