Epic Animation Created Entirely in Google Docs
- codejoust 16y agoSounds like three people have way too much time on their hands. That, or they are fascinated with the rich set of corroborative tools, (as rudimentary they may be4 for animation) in Google Docs.
- btucker 16y agoI think it's more that they're just one of the many teams competing in http://demoslam.com/ http://demoslam.com/
- Umalu 16y agoI think it's art, and applaud them for it. Reminds me of Brian Eno's (supposed) definition of originality: do something that's so time consuming or difficult that no one else would ever bother.
- anigbrowl 16y agoThey're going to be very handsomely rewarded for that in 2011. A firm that suddenly discovered it needed a new marketing campaign at short notice would need to spend $20k to get this level of quality at short notice, perhaps more. These guys should start looking for an office rental.
- micmcg 16y agoMaybe, but it has very little to do with the fact that they did it in google docs and everything to do with being skilled animators. If they are skilled with motion graphics, why wouldn't they also charge the $20k market rate that you are quoting? Being talented != explosive startup
- anigbrowl 16y agoOh, that's what I meant - but a million a year will do a few hard-working guys nice to get started with. Tortoise, hare etc. - explosive growth isn't the only viable strategy.
- techiferous 16y ago> people have way too much time on their hands I love those kinds of people. Like this guy: http://www.tomscott.com/ http://www.tomscott.com/
- SandB0x 16y agoIf you don't get it (took me a while), look at the slide counter ticking away in the bottom-left corner from around the 40 second mark...
- Groxx 16y agoBrute-force powerpoint animation. Nice.
- sliverstorm 16y agowas the music part of the powerpoint?
- keyle 16y agos/Epic/Okay
- ChRoss 16y agoWhen I download the slide, it's 413 slides, not 450.
- tertius 16y agoStop calling it powerpoint!
- olalonde 16y agoGoogle Docs couldn't have hoped for better publicity.
- IamNoMad 16y agoI am asking to learn. The www.demoslam.com is very nice. Would anyone please tell me what the front end / User interface was developed in? Thanks.
