Topic: Test Montage 3, Return of the Montage!

A collection of tests where I generally attempt to improve my animation and stuff.

Nice! I always love your animation style.


I just gotta ask - where can i get the music? I like it a lot.

Panning, Dolly, Malleting the alien (in my series that alien's name is Vrapp), Kipper flip, and of course, the momolith are my favorites.  Very lively animation!

Thanks for the feedback there!
@WoutStopmotion, I'm pleased you like it, I made it myself. I've been trying to improve my music making skills to give my films a bit more spazz. (that's not a word but you know what I mean). mini/wink

I swear, i just knew it! But then again, i had no idea who the Dumpy guy from the credits was so i thought i'd ask. mini/lol

Slightly off topic, how did you make the song? I honestly love it. I really like how you combined the harsh sounding electronic beat with a more natural sounding organ, and all those weird percussion-ish noises in the background. It gives a really unique atmosphere.

To get more on topic, i always really like your fast and cartoony animation style and the great sense of comedic timing you put into it together with loads of randomness. This montage is a great example of it mini/smile

The animation is great, as always, but the falling from a high height animations stand out as an especially great use of bricks to create a cartoon style effect. mini/smile

Love this, some great tests here

Again, thanks for the feedback SlothPaladin and Backyardlegos.

I have a really great synthesizer. I can pretty much generate any sound from a natural sounding organ to white noise. I also have an analogue drum machine which I got fairly recently. My usual technique is to fiddle around with the knobs until I find something I like! mini/lol

What drum machine & synth are you using?  (I am a synth player and have to know)

Haha, I used a Novation Mininova along with a Korg Volca Beats.

K-K00L!  One of my synths is a Novation K.  Nice piece of British hardware.
