You might regret saying that Eddie... I'm already thinking up a bunch of goofy songs for the showcase that have no redeeming value whatsoever except to provide the basis for a dumb@$$ animated music video.

My guess is it's a paradigm that will grow old quickly. But I'm doin' it anyway because I'm one of those people who has to learn the hard way. ;-)


On a different note: I'm struck by the contrast between your avatar picture and your tag line picture. Do they represent dirty Eddie and good Eddie? I can imagine each of them standing on someone's shoulders, one trying to sway the person into a life of crime, while the other one extols a more virtuous path...

I like the way you think, Mike!

Eddie is such an interesting guy, he'd certainly make a good focal point for an animated series. I hear there's already been a song or two written about him...

Some would argue that there IS no Good Eddie...

Know know what might be extremely cool Pat? Pick one or two songs and create videos of you performing them with the drummer and bass player and players playing all the backing parts you get from BIAB. Just not with YOU. Pick up a used projector and project them up onto a wall or screen behind you where you are playing live with the cartoon band around you. That would be flippin' AWESOME to see!!!

well DANG, Eddie... you revealed the intricacies of my super-secret project! (but it's kinda good to know that the person who thinks like me has an IQ of 160-plus... that puts me in good company!)

the cool thing is, the projector isn't necessary. I don't even need green screen chroma key... I can just start with a video of somebody playing a song, then use that as the background for an animated scene. Which is already in process, by the way. I just finished creating all the characters... which will be cats.

I figure if its basically a cat video, there's a higher likelihood that it will go viral. Which, of course, is what I want.

Hey, here's a better idea... how about if YOU send me a video of YOU singing one of YOUR songs, and I'll put the characters in YOUR video? Doesn't have to be a cat song. I'll make appropriate characters to go with the song.

Deal?

I could do that!! I should tell you though that someone once told me upon hearing my songs that she is glad she doesn't own a barn because they were so sad she would be tempted to throw a rope over a beam and hang herself....

My reply was "These are songs about having my heart broken. That is a sad subject. When I write about someone adopting a basket of puppies, it will be happy."

I'll send you one that is happy with a wry twist in the lyric.

This is actually the second time this has come around. There was a big wave of these cartoon type videos that people made poking fun of musicians (especially bass players for some reason - discuss) and in particular, bands that didn't play Brown Eyed Girl. They were really funny.

edit to add: The series was called "xtranormal" and they went around in about 2010-2011. If you look up xtranormal on youtube you will find a bunch. Compared to yours it is very primitive.

Yeah, xtranormal is what got me interested in this. It was a web-based animation system that worked from a text script.

It was free, but the output of video is rather large, and they were hosting all the stored video (which cost them money)

Can you see what might go wrong with the business model? And of course, it did. The original free site went down, and they are now reinventing the idea, but this time it won't be free.

my all-time favorite xtranormal video:

Not mock...imitate! She's got the hand motions for the drama segment and the look over the glasses down pat (damn awful pun)!
