special effects in a hungrymother video... it's a beautiful day :) This is the best entry I've seen from you guys. Everyone keeps getting better, good to see.

I'm speechless, but for all the wrong reasons.

Pirates are better than ninjas

That's what she said.

I feel like little health bars need to appear in the upper corners when Wes and Cody start fighting. Haiduken!

Interesting submission guys! I agree with @killerrobotninja that you're videos keep getting better with each round. I loved the old school Ghost Busters cartoon high-five at the end!

Hey...was that pirates and ninjas quote a direct slam on KRN? Hahah!

Also, I need to know...did Robert Applecroft ever end up getting that bubble bath?

7/3/2008 at 10:15 a.m. by hungrymother

I was wanting to tie the "Production Meeting" by HungryFungus into the the video somehow. So that whats going on at the end.

@KBJ Thanks I have no idea how to use After Effects. So I used Final Cut and LiveType to come up with so ok effects.

@ThatsWhatSheSaid I'm sorry I took your words away...here you can have them back.

Of course Robert took the bubble bath, we just figured Kevin might not want people to see that part of his dream! Right Kevin?

Sorry, I forgot to say thanks to FungusRidden, we were hoping someone would catch the Street Fighter reference. We actually had a shot where he shouted Haiduken, but in the end we thought maybe that was to obvious, plus we don't know the copyright rules on that!

@ Erik I wouldn't say slam it was just something I thought would be funny. I was going to but a sound effect of a bathtub filling up at the end. However it sounded like someone was taking a leak so I decided against it.

We shot a video for the last chapter and Robert was taking a bubble bath in it. The video was all shot on a green screen and we did not light it evenly. So I could not key out the green and it looked really weird thats why it never made it up.

7/3/2008 at 10:51 a.m. by FungusRidden

Better to be safe than sorry; you still get props for that shot, whether we can see it or not. ;)

Sorry about the green screen, though. :< I know what that's like, trying to key it out later and realizing the lighting is causing a chroma-fiasco. Talk about a headache. x_X

Hey guys! I want to make a jaytaylorthe1 style treaty. Not against promotion. Promote the crap out of your video. Friends, family, neighbors, strangers, classmates, church folk, gamers, circus freaks, prison inmates... get everyone you can to vote, of course.

I want us to all agree to play fair though. One vote per human being. I'm not throwing any accusations out there. It's just that there is no money in this round, and I see a lot of irony in cheating to meet Michael Moore, as he is so obsessed with justice and equality.

So can we all agree not to make up email addresses and vote for ourselves, and if any of us already have those accounts in our back pockets, not to use them? agreed?

7/3/2008 at 3:37 p.m. by defenestrationproductions

Yes sir, right away sir. I was almost in tears that KRN hated me, then I saw the comment on the other video as well. I know Hungrymother would agree, but as I am not him and can not speak for him, I will let him put that up on his own.

7/3/2008 at 3:41 p.m. by thisisnotdavidmoon

What do you mean? Who would dare to create multiple accounts - that's cheating.

7/3/2008 at 3:45 p.m. by davidmoon

@ thisisnotdavidmoon

You're so smart! I agree!

Holy cow, I have to give it up to you HungryMother, your submission isn't the worst one this week. I still think that your storylines need work (they all do this round), but the look and production value of your entry is greatly improved over previous ones. Keep up the good work, I am seeing some potential here. I won't lie and say I voted for you, but it was actually close and I haven't been a fan of yours before. I think that you may be a force to reckon with this round and in the future rootclip competitions.

I just hope that we don't see the last minute surge in voting that have become synonomous (sp?) with your past submissions. It may be legit, but it just looks really bad and you all deserve better than that, especially this round.

By the way, I apologize for any past posts that may have been a little unfair to you. You finally have mean leaning toward your bandwagon.

7/4/2008 at 1:22 a.m. by shark

Okay, I just read my post back and it kind of sounds like a backhanded compliment. I didn't mean it that way though, I honestly think that you guys did some pretty good work this round.

7/4/2008 at 9:40 p.m. by SakuraHakusho

ganbatte! I love the fighting. So reminds me of Dragon Ball Z! love it

7/5/2008 at 11:57 a.m. by hungrymother

@ KRN I agree to your jaytaylorthe1 style treaty.

7/5/2008 at 12:16 p.m. by killerrobotninja

shakes hands cool deal hungrymother, I'm feeling the love in these groups. May the best video win.

7/7/2008 at 10:09 a.m. by rains_g

Hey guys, nice clip. I think this is probably your best entry to date. Good Luck!

7/7/2008 at 11:23 a.m. by FungusRidden

Congratulations on setting a personal best with this entry! It looks almost up to the Rootclip original, visually!

That said, I think I was actually more interested with The Chase. The special effects aren't bad, but they don't hold tension quite like an old-fashioned chase scene. Nice nod to HungryFungus's boardroom short. :P
