  1. Matt gets an email. It's from Ri Yong-mu, vice chairman of the National Defence Commission of North Korea. It reads, crudely, "hi mat big fan can you make an animation of kim fighting robocop we'll pay u in exposure"

  15. @mrmattimation You know how in back to the future, one of the plot points was that the car would stall all the time? That was because the car would stall all the time.

  16. @mrmattimation Oh, and here's the music video in question if you're interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hji4gBuOvIQ

  17. @mrmattimation Hell, the title translates into "the morning" or "the tomorrow", which not only also falls into that archetype I mentioned but also evokes the passage of time and its effects, something implied visually from very early on in the video through the way the windmill turns clockwise. http://i.imgur.com/AKYrqTz.jpg The bottom line is really just to listen to the song and parse it to the best of your ability, then try and represent both what you think the song is trying to communicate to you and how it makes you as the listener feel. There's no set-in-stone method of making a "great" music though, but hopefully that'll give you some ideas and inspiration on how to go about tackling this next project of yours. Good luck too, I can't wait to see how things turn out!

  18. @mrmattimation I can actually give an example of a music video that I really like (that also happens to be animated, so it's even more appropriate for this discussion!) that works really well based on the metrics I've been describing, and it's the music video for El Mañana by Gorillaz. The palpable visual storyline of the video fits more into the wider chronological set of events in the Gorillaz universe, though the song itself works on a framework of more broad emotional and thematic touchstones, and it's the directing that links the two. Much of the song's lyrics work within the "death and rebirth" archetype, and that idea is clearly expressed through the fact that the music video's main story involves a giant windmill in the sky being violently destroyed. That duality is even expressed through numerous visual juxtapositions, like heavy red and blue contrasts http://i.imgur.com/CRa3ABi.png and dramatic, shadow-heavy lighting http://i.imgur.com/7KkM4IK.jpg being notable.

  19. @mrmattimation That's a tough question, because since music videos are already mixed media there are a ton of factors contributing to what makes them successful or not for a given person. Generally speaking (and this isn't some kind of universally applicable model and more of just some personal advice) the music videos that really work for me are the ones that expound on the ideas presented in the song, lyrically or otherwise (I mean this in the sense that a music video doesn't specifically have to tell the "story" of the song it's accompanying, it can also just be an interpretation of the specific prose the song is using or atmosphere the song is creating). Creating a music video is a lot like creating a regular short, but instead of a script you have music. A lot can still be told through visuals that is mere subtext of the music, and vice versa. The two can work in explicit tandem, but can also play off each other in the abstract as well.

  27. @tiffany A piece of software you use every time you power up your computer, whose primary purpose is to stop people from either robbing you or destroying your stuff? No, there's no reason you should want to pay for that.

  29. For those who doubt the power of Rainbow Horse Site. We had bronies with Red Enchilada. He captured the entire future of the Rainbow Horse Site. But then saying that an attack on Public was his greatest mistake. We had Matt. At that time, as My Little Brony for a few days has made Rainbow Horse Site a footman, the users for three years has brought MLB3 to surrender, and two Rainbow Horse Site boy ended the war, hanging a Rainbow Flag over the Popular Notices. We had the furries, which we are forced to capitulate. We are threatened with garbage and memes, while us enough to stop the flow of cheeky banter, as all will pray for forgiveness. And we do our best to supply banter to YouTube, where go the animators. And I tell you. Rainbow Horse Site is a peaceful site. But who will come to us with memes, that from his own nice meme and die.
