New Movie in the Portal - Aw Snap

Posted by BiffTheTimid - August 4th, 2009


Hey guys, just submitted Crotchless Chaps to the portal. It's been a bumpy ride with that one, which you can read about now if you'd like.


It started when I visited the NG Office a few months back. I was talking with members of the staff, and brought up how lip syncing sucked, and took forever. Stamper brought up how he just punched in the numbers to change the mouths, and I had no idea what he was talking about. When I looked into it further, I figured out that I had been lip syncing like a fucking idiot all this time, and there was a 100x faster/easier way. I won't even tell you how I used to do it because it'll make me look like a full blown idiot.


Anyways, after that discovery, I wanted to try it out, so I threw this script together, and started animating thinking it was going to take a couple weeks. Triple that, and that's about how long it took to make. Add another week of working out all the bugs, and it's finally finished. After all the bullshit I went through to make this work, I might seriously consider never using flash again. Not even kidding. Thanks a lot to my buddies MindChamber, JohnnyUtah, and Mike for taking time out of their day to help me out.


Anyways, hope you like it. Now its back to my other "real" projects. Shit.



Comments

everyone has the same bored expression on their faces

I don't know if you mean in the entire movie, or the picture.

As we all know, slicing bread is an esteemed profession and without it society would collapse as everybody would have to eat whole loaves and not slices of it, making the process of food consumption both lengthy and tiresome. I feel that we should pay our respects to the time-old tradition of bread slicing by whipping out a loaf in each of our separate homes and slicing it into fine pieces on Friday the 7th of August, 2009. Thank you for your attention, have a nice bread slicing day!

Guess who's not celebrating that.

The lip syncing was super smooth, so Stamper apparently has the right idea.

I'm surprised at the Lady Gaga joke also, because I was having the exact same conversation in the car. Does this movie relate to the rumors of her having a penis?

I'm surprised to get a comment from the guy who thinks my movies suck and said I shouldn't do comedy. No rumor relation, but I'm pretty sure everyone has had the conversation about Lady Gaga at some point in their life.

I thought it was pretty funny vid
It was really good IMO

Thanks man. You're a cool guy.

It's good. But it's not outlaw :P

Cheer up little emo, guess what movie is coming out next?????

I was mainly in a sour mood, so sorry to stir up controversy. I did like the whole Queen Latifah gag though.

That guy is wearing an angry faic shirt.

you sir, are correct

That was awesome man! You should do more like that.

Perhaps I will, but I've got a few other more serious projects on my plate. Liked your review dawg.

single frame graphics with a different mouth pose on each frame?

as opposed to... lemme guess

redrawing each mouth every frame?

Nah, not that ridiculous. I would just have to click and drack the mouth syllable from the library, delete the old one, and line it up with where the last mouth used to be. Man.....

lady gagas funeral......if only

Some day.... some day..... Just dannnceee, gonna be OK, do do do doooo just dance...... just...... dance.....

That was some pretty funny shit, my compliments.

Thanks dude.

Also, I never said your movies suck. No offense, but just because I left a review that wasn't exactly the nicest review ever, it doesn't automatically mean I hate your guts. I just hope the whole fiasco can blow over because I really don't like eDrama (well, being in it, that is).

hahah, it's cool man. Don't worry about it.

I loved it. At first I thought it would just be one of them ''some guys that are also roommates hang out and do stuff together'' , but it turned out to be rather unique and original.

One thing though, you might want to find some voice actors...especially for the female parts. I know a very talented voice actress that hasn't even been properly discovered by anyone yet.

The only problem with getting other actors is that you have to A) tell them what to do and B) wait for them to do it. I just cut out the middle-men, and saved some time. Also, who wants to voice act about dick cleavage?

Glad you liked it man. Let me know who that actress is.

You're ok by me Biff... Dedicated projects like these are what seperate the men from the boys... I've seen that you were a decent artist but nothing really popped out to me but this thought-out piece has put you on my to watch list.

I'm glad I'm starting to pop man. Much appreciated.

Her boobs simply just aren't big enough.

Are they ever? Before you try and answer that - no, they are not.

lol, i really enjoy your graph, but please, study more the expresion of the face
, thanks for make a new tween movie

I'm not really sure if your "thanks" is genuine, but if it is, you're welcome. Make a new fight movie. They're cool.

You made Florida a cock, good job. also cockless chaps is an amazing idea but they wouldn't work for me since I wear my dick facing up not down.

hahah, well then you can show off your balls more. Maybe put a rub-off tatoo on there.

WHY DO YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES WHEN WE MAKE LOVE!!!!

FG FTW

Yeah I know about that numbers method.. I started using it recently.. Very useful. You can apply it to other symbols to, which is neat.

Yeah, I'm going to start doing that a lot now with things other than just mouths. It's infinitely easier than using "swap symbol", since for some reason it'll change dimensions of the graphic/MC every now and then.

The numbers method? Is that the one where you put a different mouth shape on a different keyframe within a movieclip and change the number of the frame on the main timeline?

I'm not even exactly sure of what I just said so..
What did Stamper teach you?

Stamper didn't teach me anything, he just brought up using numbers in a conversation, and I looked into it further. But yeah, everything you said is prettymuch exactly how its done, except I used graphics insted of MC's (for the mouth).
