Volta

Posted by chillyphilly - March 12th, 2008


Okay, I haven't made a post on my userpage in a while but there's some stuff I'm pretty keen on setting up.

First of all, because this band is so awesome and their music rocks, I've really been wanting to set up a collab to one of The Mars Volta's songs from their new album, The Bedlam in Goliath.
I've already sent out a few PMs for expressions of interest to few awesome animators and so far everyone's been pretty cool with the idea.
Although, there's the problem that most of their brilliant songs are pretty lengthy going over 6 minutes, which can turn some animators off the project and become a large task. If I was to split up the song into like 20 parts then not everyone would be co-authored. So I'm in a bit of a pickle here :/

I'm just chucking this out there, if anyone's interested just drop me a comment :P

But yeah anyway, gotta love the Volta.

I think it would be great to see a flash made out of Agadez. Or maybe Ouroboros...or Metatron..maybe Aberinkula.

Fuck, every song on that album is amazing.

Hehe, that's what I mean! It's too hard to choose which song to do, they all fucking rock.

But I really wanna do Goliath. Just not too sure about it 'cause its like over 7 minutes long.

where the fuck was my pm bro?

I told you on MSN maaaaan! :P
Sif I'd forget you ;)

Keep me in the loop with that mars volta collab. I'd love to do it.

No probs man. Cheers for the interest.
Any suggestions on the song?

Well, if you ever need more people, drop me a PM or something, I'd probably be willing to help out with a part of the song, depending on my schedule.

(My animation is much better now that it is on any of my shit on NG.)

Awesome man, I'll keep in touch.

The album's pretty fucking sick. I just acquired it. Still waiting on that PM.

Damn right!
Love the Volta ;P

The explosion cycle was nice. Have fun.

Heh, thanks dude :P

Australia fuckin rocks!

Woooooo

Oh yeah, gotta love the Volta :) It's too bad their songs go on for so long, when I made Asilos Magdalena I found a good spot to fade out, so no one notices, but that won't be possible for most of their songs. I'd love to know what song you're animating to. Let me know how it shapes up :)

ahah yeah, that's the problem :<
At first i was pretty keen on animating to goliath. It's an awesome song, but was a little too long. I tried editing a bit, but there's too much awesomeness in it to cut out parts!
But! After many days of contemplation, BlueHippo suggested their last song on the Bedlam album, Conjugal Burns. We edited it a tad and bam sounds pretty good.
We think it's a pretty good song choice, since its the last song of the album, but is also important to the whole albums story. That, and the song is just plain rad and isn't a little repetitive like a few other songs.

This collab is a great idea.

yes!

hey. i'd like to join the collab as long as i can animate the lyric that goes like this

"i got a pain inside that'll rip the very fabric of time"

my msn is anigenUS@hotmail.com

add me of you're interested in actual work/art/animation samples, because i don't have a lot on my ng (unless my avatar is enough to go on)

Added :)
Though BlueHippo has already chosen that part dude. Though, if you join, I'll have to cut down the length of the parts and so there might be a chance u can have that part. Just gotta see how it all works out?
First I gotta I'll talk to ya on msn so I can see some of your work/skillz :p
But why are you always sleeping!?

do tourniquet man instead please

Tourniquet Man is the worst song on the album :/
The rest are fucking awesome ;D

I am good at making fucked up movies so I guess I could help if you'd like.

And about the 20part coauthor thing, just put down the top 9 as coauthors and the rest right in the summary

I'm sure I can come up with some stuff.

I am here to say that I agree 100% on that review you did on that Hentai gallery shit...

You are awesome bro, that review was the truth...

TMV kicks ass. I saw them in concert a while ago. I would love to participate in anything involving their music...

Come and join THE BIG MORPHING ORGASM!
