Rama Lama

we where inspired by the flash animation WITCH DOCTOR. this is Rama Lama, a song made in '57 - '58. it took us 3 days to make it and it has almost 1600 frames. the video have subliminal messages and it's the first tamisise's video.


Monoflauta and tamisise.


PS: Yeah random! XD

Random

The song is nice, the animations are very random and quite rough sometimes.

The drawing style is also very sloppy and the quality of the drawings a very different each picture. At one time we see some pretty good drawn angel-like characters, the next scene is two very badly drawn stick figures moving around in front of a flashing background.

You should try to put only drawings in this piece that offer the same quality, or else it looks just too weird.

Yes this is because we made small clips and then we added the sound and the clips together so, most of them are different on quality

Well i like it weird haha

Thanks for reviewing!

Well one thing I took away from this video is that you have a far more interesting real name than I do, ahahaha :P

This might have something to do with the fact it's about 6am here, but I found it kind of hard to follow...xD I mean, yes, it's random, it's meant to be pretty odd and out there in therms of cohesion, but given the sheer length of the song I think having your sections fit a little more, or tell more of a story would have helped a bit, because three minutesish of randomness can get a little excessive.

Drawingwise, there were some little clips that I really thought were drawn well, and a few others which were more simple/sketchy. Maybe focusing on fewer things, as Coop said, would have helped here just in terms of overall drawing quality (And as I said above, might've helped a little with the general progression of the video).

It's the same kind of story with the animation; some is good, some isn't as good. Which shows both that you've got the skill, but perhaps not the sheer perseverance to see it through every little scene; just getting everything on the same level, qualitywise, would have helped this a lot. All that pedantic stuff besides, I did find it quite funny for the first minute or so! ;D But more than that was a little much on the ol' sleep-deprived brain, lol xD
But you always succeed in making me laugh a little, which is never a bad thing. Keep it up man, nice to see the collab on this one. (:

All of them are simple and sketchy hahaha

Haha yes but yes the animation was bad itself...

Haha glad you laughed haha
thanks a lot for reviewing!

lol

I liked it, the animation was pretty cool Facundo... (Facundo, lol!!) It was very random, it only makes the animation way funnier, since the drawings weren't bad, they were funny, I laughed so much when I listened to this song, it's pretty funny...

The animation wasn't bad, as I said before, it was very fuuny and the style was pretty cool, it wasn't so original, since NG has a lot of animations like this one (not as funny as this), but, original or not, you guys made a nice job here, congrats!!

I liked your job Mono (lol, Facundo) and I think it's a pretty good submission, congratulations, guy and gal!! ;)

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahaha

lol, from where was this dialoge? :P hahaha

Random and silly

This actually wasn't that bad if you were looking for a laugh since it keeps going from one random thing to another random thing, nice.

Storyline: There is none, it's a very random music video.

Audio: Never heard the song but it was quite random and they speak fast when they sing, sounded laughable and nice.

Animation: Probably wasn't the best it could be but I don't think it was supposed to be, more of a showcasing of many very very short skits lined up with the song which is just as nice.

Overall: Decent effort pulled by two people to make a nice piece of work, good job.

Thanks for reviewing and yes, is very random :P
(Nice score thanks a lot :P)

Abstract

Well, it certainly gave me a an impression that you need better writers or writing skills to interpret pieces like this. Normally, throwing together random sorts of pictures and animating them in a round-about sort of way doesn't tend to get you anywhere (oh well, the practice is good, that's for sure), but there seems to be something in there that you've managed to get sorted.

With the way that this piece has been put together, I was not the most inspired by the imagery presented. However, some of the bits looked decent, so concentrate on those to develop them into better pieces.

I think that you've got a great sense of producing fine works, but not quite the ability to hold yourself to them, so the work doesn't get finished to the standards you set for yourself. Try using slightly fewer themes through the piece and work more on the better parts - lose the flashing backgrounds and focus on things like the couple of singing individuals. Make them more dynamic - more moving parts, get the lip sync right, that sort of thing and you'll be away.
