When Murdoc hit 2D with a shoe, he caused all the color to be drained from the animatic. I imagine this is why certain people are colorblind, Murdoc just hits them in the head with a shoe.
I was perfectly fine up until I read "I love you" in the newspaper comic, because right afterwards Murdoc hits him and 2D looks so sad. Now I kind of just want to cry. Poor 2D :(
Funnily enough, this song was sponsored by Converse as a kind of project thing, and the shoe that Murdoc hits 2D with was one of Converse's new shoes from the Gorillaz line.
zack snack it's like the one song that hasn't been shoved in my face cuz of how popular it was, and that I liked every bit of the song. even the rap was a good breakdown. I felt it when I saw the music video, so I knew this was a top 5 list for me
In the actual video, you can see that he's in a moody hangover. In the storyboards, he looms like he was traumatized or something and the only thing he could do about it is hit someone with a shoe.
Did they run out of budget for Plastic Beach videos or what? They used a lot of 3D stuff and they couldn't animate Rhinestone Eyes. I wish they did more traditional animation.
+LuPe Plastic Beach was originally supposed to be a 3 part deal, eventually ending in the apocalypse, although the budget was cut and we were only left with the original first part. That's why the Plastic Beach game on the website ends like it does without a second chapter. There was supposed to be much more.
Good news! Some guy by the name of Richard van as (I think) animated Rhinestone eyes! It's amazing!!!! Just search it up, it should be the first thing that pops up. Gorillaz themselves noticed it even!
is it bad that i think noodle and rus look adorable in this? i mean, just look at 1:33! also, this video reminds me of some kind of problematic family. probably because they are but.....
"So, Harv, what do you think about the amount of leg on 2-D when he wakes up?" *sound of Harv slapping Tom across the globe* " "he's 70% leg not actual human proportions!"
Yooo I just realized that Russel is wearing pink socks and mom jeans in this video just like 2D is in the majority of phase 4??? It probably doesn't mean anything I just think it's cool lol
Every single one of those storyboards is so much better than the finished 3D animations. Oh Jamie, do you really have no more time to draw full videos?? Also, this clip really reminds me of the first episode of "The Young Ones". Four messy people in very messy, bizarre house, mindless violence and a letter of eviction at the end.
+Zimzamsters the guy specifically said "storyboards" you cretin. also, to that guy above, jamie isn't an animator, he has a whole animation team for that.
If this was animated like this, Murdoc would be so much creepier. In the 3-D style he just looks bitter and grumpy. Here, he’s got this blank stare all the way through. Weird stuff
I can't help but think about that comic above 2D and Murdoc's one. There's this tall, square headed character, being all joyful but spitting on the other characters's head and that shorter one with the hat looking all sad/disappointed and exiting the frame.
What intrigues me most is the fact that Murdoc ain't green in the storyboard. It probably means nothing lore-wise, but maybe tells us something about how Jamie views these characters. Idk, thought it was interesting tho.
Arnold and the Kennedy's are thrilled we stayed up for them too' so we all in da boat together now. so. share cuz we got king of media watching everything!~'
