I don't care. I was origionaly going to use the one in your sig, but I didn't for the same reason lol
You're welcome.
And thanks, someone from another forum made it for me. She is quite good, actually she made the other two animations in my sig too.
Awesome job, i love your work as well.
I can try one if you want
and there is NO rush at all... im just bored at work and i keep thinking about that part of the video and i just randomly start laughing b/c of it....
sally=the greatest
That whole vid is laugh out loud funny. Damian looks like a totally different person and Dan has hair.
I always stare at Ira Glass though, cuz it's like, omg, there's Ira Glass...pretending to be in a backup band. I was obsessed with This American Life long before I heard of Ok Go, so seeing him all crazy was a ttl shock.
katie=the bestest
and you're right... the entire video i'm laughing hysterically... i love andy's can opener dance. damian has a mullet ...like what's with the cutoff, dudebro? doesn't matter. it's pure genius.
and forgive me for being uncultured... but i don't even know who ira glass is...
Ira Glass is the host of This American Life, a program on NPR (well, technically it's a PRI program, which is NPR's rival public broadcasting station or something, but NPR plays it). Both NPR and PRI are affiliated with PBS, if that helps. NPR usually airs BBC news and boring stuff like that so This American Life is a hidden gem. It's basically an hour of true stories about things like getting a job, embarrassing moments, childhood- everything and anything in American life. In between segments, music plays for a few seconds; the music relates in someway to the story. It turns out that Ok Go actually got their start on This American Life. Damian used to work for NPR, doing some behind-the-scene thing, and that's how he met Ira Glass. Then, Ok Go became the house band for This American Life and went on tour with them (which is where Cinnamon Lips debuted). On air too, Ok Go was played in the few seconds between segments on This American Life. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Jorge, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore, Whom I Adore, our lovely admin on this forum, actually still works for This American Life. I didn't post it at the time, but about 2 weeks ago I heard his name in the credits again at the end of This American Life. A few months ago, Ok Go played again for the This American Life tour in California- just like old times. Damian mentioned in an interview that he played in a basketball game for the NPR team against the PRI team, I think. There's also a podcast where Tim and Damian chat with Johnathan Goldstein, a huge This American Life personality (it's been said on this forum that they also did a podcast with Ira, but that hasn't been released or something). So, yeah, Ira Glass is in the Cinnamon Lips music video- and that lady in the black dress is a big NPR reporter and in fact, all the "backup band" are actually Ok Go's famous NPR friends, pretending to play instruments.
I love how Ok Go is connected to NPR because it's like, they're a band from the ultimate nerd place who became the ultimate rockstars.
(I admit, however, that even though I heard episodes of This American Life with Ok Go in them, I don't really pay all that much attention to the music and didn't know who Ok Go was until HIGA on youtube)
sorry to ask you to describe again, but I didn't wanna give you the wrong thing- did you want just Tim shaking his hips or Damian in there too?
edit: it was really hard to make it fit avatar size. I kept chopping off bits of his legs, and by the time the height got to 90 pixels, the hip movement just wasn't the same as when you could see his legs. I did try to resize the whole thing altogether, but that made the image kind of blurry when it was forced that small. (and this was Tim by himself, not with Damian). I'm gonna try to focus on just the hips and see if that looks better.
we have NPR here
and now, what I came up with for that Cinnamon Lips one, Katie:
avas:
(more in next post)
sigs:
let me know if you want anything changed
and Katie- pshaw, you could do awesome stuff. Did you get the PowerDVD to work?
Oh. Oh my. Sally, you're my hero.
You're the bestest and I love you too, hehe
I'm glad you like them! If you want anything changed, anything at all, let me know- I'm always bored and lookin for stuff to do.
And Rachel, you're my hero too
