First, I'm the /f/aggot always screaming about SwfH264. Now that that's out of the way...
I've been slogging away at this for a little over 3 months, and have about 1 minute out of the
4:30 completed. Sure, I have precious little free time to do this, but lately I can't even get
the joy boiling enough to open this project and continue. Real Flash is not the easiest thing to
shit out; it's a painstaking process doing animation of any sort, much less Flash.
I figured I'd drop a preview sample of the intro anyway. Maybe anon can give me the push to
either finish this, or dump it in the river under the boat.
Also open to inspirational ideas, or feedback on what anon wants to see in the /f/uture. (PLEASE
don't say "moar videoz")

>why do you have pepe pulling wojak and not the other way around
I honestly don't even know. I was bored? I'm not an expert on robot memeology.
Probably Wojak strikes me as effete and Pepe has ulterior motives for pulling.
Really, this is all just an experiment in Linklater-style rotoscoping.

I agree with this guy. Why'd you have to make it the facebook frog instead of a vector rendition
of the original video? I mean even the kind of quality that blackwhite.swf has would be
acceptable.

Looks good. It's ultimately your choice on whether this is worth spending your time on, but I
will say that the projects I regret aren't the ones that turned out poorly, it's the ones I

But... still no suggestions the remaining 3:30?
>>3262935
I wanted to experiment with rotoscoping, but not actually drawing the subjects - but rather,
superimposing other characters in their place. The original video in this case is simply an
onionskin reference for motion and scale.
I feel you though, I'm not particularly a Pepe-Wojak fan myself, but I know they'll be
recognized. It seems to induce a healthy dose of rage, so it's probably a good thing.

you can make you life easier by using cheap filler if you can make it work in an epic way dont
think you need ever millisecond a master work even if its how it looks so far. true filler only
enhances the real animation. also i want to have your babies.

lulz, this is amazing!
i think this is good enough mate. just make the audio loop seamlessly, remove the "sample" at the
end and try to sync the visuals repeating with the audio as well as you can. there's a triple a
flash loop right there
not sure if continuing would be worth the trouble, the singing and so forth wouldn't really add
many more keks other than what was already had
of course there's the girl singing that could be shoop-da-whoop or moot-cat or yotsuba or
something, maybe would add another layer to your creation.
i recommend wrapping it up here though, especially if you got tired working on it. better to
finish a project than let it die out uncomplete.

That's the original character's name. He was appropriated by merry memesters, to the dismay of

If you want to stay motivated try not to release anything until it's 100% completed, releasing
things in chunks or with previews almost always dissipates your motivation because the sweet
dopamine rush of people reacting to your content has already been experienced and even if you do
release the finished product it wont be as good as the first time. Previews/demos are generally
only good if you need funding or something like that
the flash itself is great, I hope you make more stuff in the future

haven't even noticed it's exactly the same thing with the same controls and the same source under

Great animation, it looks much more technically challenging other stuff getting made today, since
there is little reuse of character poses. But yeah if you want to abandon it don't hesitate, you
could be working on something that would be a better fit in a demo reel or portfolio.

Oh, we notice. You can't hide the formatting look-and-feel in sauce, besides, a quick peek on its
swfchan page gives it away immediately.
And yeah, 3 months of my spare time, totalling maybe 50 hours so far. I have a job and a landlord
