as a thought for the back of your mind: lately I'm seeing a LOT of conspiracy theory stuff about aliens and Roswell and even theories that the government is planning a misinformation campaign like the famous WAR OF THE WORLDS radio broadcast that threw the nation into a panic years ago...

there is so much junk out there that it would be a shame to let all that momentum go to waste. Read up on the conspiracy theories, then put your own spin on it. There's a lot of potential way beyond the coyote/roadrunner model.

brainstorming ideas:

1) what would happen if the late show had a grey alien as guest? What would the host ask him? What kind of crazy @$$ replies would the alien come back with?

2) there's an obvious parallel between the illegal alien problem with insecure southern border and illegal interplanetary aliens... I think that would yield some great scenes if you presented space aliens in that paradigm

3) then there's the Twilight Zone model, like the "HOW TO SERVE HUMANS" episode, in which the plot throws us a curve in which we start out thinking the aliens are here to serve us socially, and end up realizing the title is for a cook book, and they're here to eat us

4) and of course there's the tried and true "fish out of water" plot in which an alien character is confronted by scenarios we take for granted (like dating protocol, dining protocol etc) and he gets it wrong because frankly, the way we do everything is counter-intuitive

5) another tried and true plot model is the "odd couple" in which you have a team (in this case maybe a human and an alien working together) and they rub each other the wrong way because they think so differently about everything

Or not. You have some great ideas, and I'm just piling on. Feel free to use or discard anything I say.]]> Wed, 04 May 2016 18:29:29 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from clayster2012 Mon, 02 May 2016 20:16:58 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from artpen at the moment because I'm busy with my 2D stuff that I need to do.
But I'll be back with a pilot episode for a new comedy that I've got planned, don't know when but sometime!!

Yeah, I'll help out with some voices, let me know when you have some script.

Great video clayster! Really great movie making.

I really liked the way you chose the music for the characters, it worked a treat, very nice staging and timing.

Yes, a lovely homage to the Loony Tunes era.

That was really fun to watch. I know as a kid I would love it, and as a kid who never really grew up (at least I tried not to give up on that fun mindset), I really enjoyed your Alien Grey (Cow Abduction). The colors were well chosen for the cartoon atmosphere, and a lot of your props reminded me of Legos and now I want to use Legos in an animation for some models. I bet someone already has or will get there before I do.

Others have commented on the sound effects, and I agree with what has been said so far. I can not even begin to imagine how you created everything you did here. It makes me want to quit work, and just play. However then I would not have a home or electricity so I will give up on that idea for now.

I look forward to more Alien Grey. Never Give Up is one of my favorite sayings. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Rocque, you really touched me, yes never give up, how much I believe in that, and you just made me want to continue Alien Grey, thank you for the encouragement.]]> Mon, 02 May 2016 06:24:27 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from Rocque

my thoughts exactly! You are doing some really cool stuff here Clayster! and in a bunch of different directions at the same time! Your models are very good, and your use of key framing is absolutely ground-breaking!

I liked the way you paid homage to Snoopy by having the dog lie on the top of his dog house

I also liked the way you made the alien peek out from behind things. Something about that is inherently funny!

And your turnaround time is very fast, which is one of my goals too... in the past few months, you've probably posted more clips than anybody.. and they've all been good! I identify strongly with your approach to story telling, so your works serves as a good model for me to emulate!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks PatMarrNC, Snoopy was one of my all time favorites as a kid and still is, and the Road Runner cartoons was also a favorite to, I wanted to do something that would bring back that old school feel by using all the same tricks that they used, sitting their watching them when I was growing up was my after school kill time, and man I miss those days, so what better way to experiment with the Key Frame by mimicking those tricks with models, so the next Alien Grey will have more tricks and gadgets.]]> Mon, 02 May 2016 04:13:04 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from PatMarrNC mysto wrote:

Nice job on recreating a cartoon, the keyframing really does allow a lot of freedom, don't it?

The fun you can have... I liked the UFO taking off and exploding, nice shot. I would've used depth of field throughout though - mind you, I say that to everyone, but you should try using it more, it can really enhance shots like these, soften up the horizons and stuff. Just my opinion, not criticising.

It's ok criticising is just medicine to make it better]]> Sun, 01 May 2016 20:43:50 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from clayster2012 mysto wrote:

Now - all that said: as you originally posted - the key framing feature in Muvizu really is a quantum leap forward in many ways too.

So many inventive and creative ideas.

Of course an alien spaceship MUST have a red carpet LOL...

Also the nicely fitting music...

And so many well made objects - perfectly fitting the Muvizu style.
Did you make them all by yourself? or is there a store where such goodies can be bought ? (The corn plants etc. ?)

I really hope that the last words ”No worries, you can try again tomorrow” mean that we will see a Number 2 also ?]]> Sun, 01 May 2016 15:07:21 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5673-alien-grey-cow-abduction.aspx Message from clayster2012 Other then muvizu is after effects and movie maker and Audacity.

Are you using any other software in addition to Muvizu?
How did you manage to get such a good voice over and everything associated with it?
Brilliant stuff.
