    The squad of pigeons marching across the screen then simultaneously looking at the viewer brought 'Be Prepared' from 'The Lion King' to mind, where the hyenas are marching across. This might be the best Tech Diff animation you've done yet. My favourite part of the episode was Gary singing 'Happy Birthday'.

    • @CamstonIsland
      @CamstonIsland  9 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you very much! The 'Be Prepared' analogy was very much intentional, and I tried making a more direct parody at 2:18, but the green filter wasn't working quite right, so I went with just red. I'll probably end up animating the 'Happy Birthday' section as well, perhaps as a Short or something.

      And thus we delve deeper into the simulacra!
      Chilean Government Program -> Wikipedia article on Project Cybersyn -> Technical Difficulties episode using that article as a source -> an animatic based on that episode -> a viewer reimagining the animatic with original imagery and dialogue...

    • @CamstonIsland
      @CamstonIsland  9 месяцев назад +1

      Sometimes they get so insistent on a tangent that, thinking about animating it, I struggle to find a way to actually connect it to the core topic 'written on the blackboard'. In such situations, like the Tartar Sauce Rustling, it won't take place at the classroom- not even a semblance of coherence to be had!
