A short abstract animation I made for the Hypertrance Artweek 1 (main theme: "the clearest blue") event hosted by <a href="https://nuphory.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@nuphory</a>.The musical piece was also made by me for the sake of this video.

Animated music video for my animation class. Let me know what you think! :)

Enjoy some chill vibes with Shiver and Frostbite! ❄️ Here's an animated music video I made as a final project for my abstract animation class. Inspired by films like Jordan Belson's "Samadhi" and "Allures", and John Whitney's "Catalog". This is also my first full length song, so let me know what you think! :) Music and characters by me! :D(Background visuals are found footage)

Shiver and Frostbite - Chill Vibes

Ever wonder where some of our common phrases such as by and large and taken aback come from? By and large refers to how a ship would handle both sailing with and against the wind. Over time this has come to mean general or overall. Taken aback refers to a dangerous situation in which a ship would be sailing directly against the wind, sudden gusts from the wind could cause damage to the ship, as the sails and rigging to backward.

The Naval Origin of 'By and Large' and 'Taken Aback' - Naval History Animated.

The villainous Dr. Robotnik confronts Sonic about his frustrations.

v1.0 — Initial release. Used chroma key to separate animation from backgrounds.v.1.1 — Used alpha channel instead of chroma key. Green line art artifacts removed.v1.2 — Added SWF version. Fixed minor color mistakes for SWF version only. <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eZM3_aK-9eM#ngq:1154:649#ngq:1154:649#ngq:1154:649#ngq:1154:649#ngq:1154:649" width="1154" height="649" data-smart-scale="1154,649"></iframe> COMMENTARYI started this project thinking, “Oh, yeah, I know exactly how to draw AoStH Robotnik; I don’t need to use reference!” And then every frame looked like shit. So, I went online and referred to the show itself and these two pieces of concept art by character designer Milton Knight. A good lesson in humility. <img src="https://uploads.ungrounded.net/tmp/img/397000/iu_397394_4226168.webp" width="764" height="317" alt="iu_397394_4226168.webp" data-smart-scale="764,317"> I accomplished a good chunk of animation on a livestream, but the stream was struck down because I played episodes of Adventures of Sonic for my friends to watch thinking nothing would come of it. Maybe I should stream on Twitch or Picarto, accounts where I don’t really care whether they live or die. It’s a darn shame because that stream was a lot of fun! DoodleDemon and I started calling each other “blithering buckets of bolts” and watched Robotnik do a Nazi salute and that was absolutely hilarious. <img src="https://uploads.ungrounded.net/tmp/img/397000/iu_397346_4226168.png" width="446" height="708" alt="iu_397346_4226168.png" data-smart-scale="446,708"> The show itself is a lot of fun. It’s stupid fun. Every moment Robotnik is on screen is a good time. Scratch and Grounder are great, as well. The team that worked on it—including Milton Knight, the voice actor Long John Baldry (1940–2005 R.I.P.), and the storyboard artists (including Scott Shaw! From the early Archie Sonic comics)—did a fantastic job given the limitations they worked with. Overall, I definitely prefer SatAM over AoStH, but they are both very different genres of animation. While I was working on this project, Milton Knight leaked on Facebook that Diskotech would be doing an Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog complete series release on Blu-ray and that it would contain new interviews with him. I had hoped that the release would be in HD given that it is Blu-ray and not DVD, but it was very unlikely whoever owned the rights to the show kept the film masters and only kept the master tapes, which inherently have a lower resolution. Later that year, Diskotech officially announced the complete series on Twitter. I am absolutely going to pre-order it. It comes out February 2022. If they ever release the SatAM complete series on Blu-ray (in full HD, knock on wood), I will die a happy man. Now that I think about it, I’m known by all my friends for being a huge Sonic fan, so it’s weird that it took until now for me to make a proper Sonic cartoon. This project started as a gift for MatterBoar. I felt bad that <a href="https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/771051">the previous animation I made for him</a> was released in November 2020, 13 months ago, and I hadn’t made any new ones in that time. So I secretly started this one and originally intended to give it to him for free. He asked me if I was available for new animation work and I told him about this side project and he said he’d buy it! The deadline was Christmas Day. The night before, I promised myself I would work on this cartoon until it is 100% ready to release. I thought it would take maybe three hours. It ended up taking 22 hours straight. I only took three hour-long breaks to rest my hands and get a half-hour of sleep. A single cup of hot chocolate coffee got me through it! The thing that took the longest in this particular long stretch was the shot of Robotnik running in place. That took forever! I probably could have done this quicker, but I wanted to make sure each and every frame was cleaned up. I do not envy the animators of the original show. Despite how simple Robotnik’s character design looks, animating him takes a long time, especially compared to Sonic. Robotnik’s mustache and yellow jumpsuit straps in particular were very troublesome, as well as layering the different body parts. The most frustrating thing with Sonic was doing his baby blue highlights. Thankfully, Sonic hardly moves in this cartoon. (That’s kinda uncharacteristic of Sonic, but hey I’m not complaining!) I wanted to add some traditional paint-like motion blur to some of the snappier movements, but due to the deadline—and me just wanting to move on to something new—I could not do it in time. The tight shot of Robotnik’s face at the end was also supposed to be painterly, similar to the gross-out shots in SpongeBob and Ren and Stimpy, but after I took a crack at it in Clip Studio Paint, I couldn’t do it. Also, I felt that a rendered painting of a character wouldn’t fit a parody that tried to match the art style of the original show. Pre-production began in August 2021 and post-production ended on Saturday, December 25th. Normally, a 26-second-long cartoon wouldn’t take that long, but due to a myriad of continuous financial problems and setbacks, it took four months to complete. It probably would have had a better start if I had started by making storyboards. I run-and-gunned this whole cartoon and I definitely regret it. I ended up making last-minute changes to the character poses, facial expressions, etc., which isn’t something you really want to be doing a lot with deadlines involved. You want to make confident decisions in the beginning so that the changes later on will hopefully be few in number. Ordinarily, I would not do this slapdash approach with a commission. But this started out as a gift and turned into a commission later. Regardless, even quick, shoddy storyboards would have gone a long way! Lesson learned. Originally, I was going to commission my friend Dyoudi Mitimasa (<a href="https://epicfunnyhahajokelol.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@epicfunnyhahajokelol</a>) do the background art. He is a natural at this kind of sharp, abstract art style. However, I did not have the money to commission an artist, especially at the time. So instead, I leave you with a huge recommendation to go check out Dyoudi’s art! He’s a wonderful artist and a wonderful person! Additionally, Milton Knight is still an active artist and has a Patreon! <a href="https://www.patreon.com/miltonknight/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Go support him, too!</a> I made this background art by referencing two screenshots from the show, shown in the timelapse video. At first, I was very happy with this art, especially since it was my first real attempt at abstract art. The reference really helped! But once I put it in the cartoon, something was wrong. Robotnik’s design is mostly warm colors. The background is mostly warm colors. I feel this leads to a lot of Robotnik’s movements being less readable than they should. Sonic is fine since he’s blue, orange’s complement. If I had to do the background art again, I would divide the composition into two sections: a cool section for Robotnik and a warm section for Sonic. <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HgFCB4l9Vv8#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649#ngq:865:649" width="865" height="649" data-smart-scale="865,649"></iframe> CLIENT<a href="https://youtube.com/c/matterboar" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MatterBoar</a> ANIMATION / BACKGROUND ART / EDITINGAlexander Emenheiser <a href="https://ade-syndicate.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@ade-syndicate</a> BACKGROUND MUSICDr. Robotnik's ThemeComposed by Reed Robbins and Mark SimonCover by <a href="https://youtu.be/j9GpekZhhkI" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Turret 3471</a> Main Title ThemeComposed by Clark GassmanIncludes motifs fromSonic 2 Title Theme and Emerald Hill Zone composed by Masato Nakamura,In the Hall of the Mountain King composed by Edvard Grieg,and Flight of the Bumblebee composed by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov AUDIO TAKEN FROM<a href="https://youtu.be/1kCWA4gwOT0?t=1391" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">OneyPlays Sonic Robo Blast 2 - FINALE</a>with <a href="https://oney.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@Oney</a>, <a href="https://patreon.com/wanwangames" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ding Dong, and Julian</a>Edited by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/DexTheSwede" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Dex the Swede</a> FONTSPedro SPECIAL THANKS AND PATREON SUPPORTERSAnimation stream viewers,including <a href="https://twitter.com/doodledemon_art" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DoodleDemon</a>, for keeping me company<a href="https://www.patreon.com/miltonknight" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Milton Knight</a> for being nice when I talked to him :)<a href="https://suprdee2.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@SuprDee2</a> for being supportiveand giving me a new version of Toon BoomDyoudi Mitimasa <a href="https://epicfunnyhahajokelol.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@epicfunnyhahajokelol</a> PATREON &amp; KO-FI SUPPORTERSAleahAshleyFroggyDuwudeViktor Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog © SEGA, DIC Entertainment 1993 P.S. — I’m working on a new project right now!

Pearl Jam - Do The Evolution - ReAnimated - Scene #56

Abstract project I did for my Foundations of Animation class

For my foundations of animation class we had to animated over a 30 second clip from a classical song that we were each assigned. In the end, we would then stitch everyone's pieces together to make a 15 minute long abstract video. I really liked experimenting with this, so here's my part of the piece!

Abstract Animation Piece

The Motion Graphics Animation for my ASMR brand channel of my Tuxedo Cat Mascot Logo

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4Y75LTOAD2xNrm690vKR8Q?view_as=subscriber" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Oppressed By Purple</a> Logo/Mascot Branding Motion Graphics Animation Titles for my ASMR brand channel.She's a spoiled Tuxedo Cat, Lila. NO STORY HERE, so I KNOW that ALL of NewGrounds will HATE THIS! The brand content is non-narrative video content with Ambient &amp; ASMR audio which is meant as background sound for relaxation, meditation, or whatever else you want to do with it. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4Y75LTOAD2xNrm690vKR8Q" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">My channel</a> is more on the secular end of the spectrum, and doesn't push any religious agendas. I wanted my brand to slightly stand out in a different way rather than pushing "chakra alignment" or "raise your vibration" or any other abstract verbage. Since we live in a time when relaxation and rest is viewed as laziness, or even a luxury to dream about, even tho' it's completely natural n something we OUGHT to be doing regularly, I wanted it to to be a sort of cheeky humor. So,if u look at brands like "Urban Decay" (which is just makeup) or "Liquid Death" (which is just mountain water in a can) which market every day products as tho it's something decadent or high end and "I should want this, but I do! It's so indulgent!" But, this brand is just relaxation content which is just meant to be played in the background at the dentist, doing work, or relaxing, and isn't meant to actually stand out so much, but to be mood inducing and intentionally forgettable. And, I just really get a kick out of cats and cat memes &amp; cartoons because cats are so unapologetic about doing whatever they want indulgently.The Cat is meant as a kind of instructional visual that viewer would associate with being OK with enjoying relaxing, but its also humorous. Like this spoiled cat is so pampered that it's life is so rough being so spoiled... I'm so oppressed by my indulgent decadence... But also the Color PURPLE is associated not only with so-called "Spirituality" but also Avarice &amp; Luxury because the original dye called "Tyrian" in ancient times was so expensive and difficult to produce that ONLY the wealthy and the clergy classes could ever afford it. I had to create a new channel for this content because it clashes with my main channel's content on YouTube. <img src="https://uploads.ungrounded.net/tmp/img/165000/iu_165214_955185.jpg" width="764" height="430" alt="iu_165214_955185.jpg" data-smart-scale="764,430">

Mega64 TV Bumper - Tetris

A tale of a fallen spirit and a fallen kingdom.

Just something I made for a month-long school project. It was made over the course of a week, with on and off progress being made one slow day at a time, since I had other things on my plate at the time, as well. Basically, the movie centers around an unnamed "dwarf" (I use quotation marks because the dwarves look more human than dwarven, since I'm a shit artist), whose final days within the dwarven fortress "Koganusan" (dwarven for 'Boatmurdered', google it) are numbered. The meaning of the film, deeper than the jist of it, is for you to decide. This was my first attempt at creating something somewhat abstract, with different interpretations and the likes, and I'm not very satisfied with the end result. That's why I ask of you to please be critical in your comments so that I may improve myself. Don't feel forced to do so, though. A simple rating will suffice. :-) The film was very much inspired by "Dwarf Fortress", an A+ video game, as well as "Boatmurdered", an online "let's play" of sorts related to the video game at hand. Artistry credits go to both myself and the much more talented folks at the now-defunct Raven software, producers of "Hexen" and "Heretic", from which I shamefully traced most of the drawings in the second half of the film. The wonderful music credits go to Tarn Adams, the creator of Dwarf Fortress, and an all-around excellent composer. Please try to enjoy regardless of the atrocious quality of the visuals.

The Fall of Koganusan

Featuring the tune Vibra Fun by Roger Roger

My first submission to newgrounds, kind of a cliche way to start out huh? Anyway, this is my abstract music video, set to the colorful music of Roger Roger (pronounced as Ro-Zhay Ro-Zhay) accompanied by my colorful animation.

Vibra Fun

even one of them, so I blended them together, made some music for it and now here you see the most abstract

CGI Mix

compilation of composition, kinetical typography, coloristics and other words unknown :)

Music video for Agemixer theme "DA SHIT" yes, I've changed the title. 
It contrasts with all the violent stuff I've made before and looks kind of positive also it's more abstract and assosiative than other movies here, but if you'll look deeper it even has a plot. Also I don't know what else should I write here... yesh, it contains fullbody samurays, 3d vector moving forms, some funny cute characters and, yeah... sticks... Enjoy seeing this. =Edit= 
somethings a little wrong with the preloading line, so wait till 5,8 mb will be downloaded (pease)

DASH it!

An abstract shadowy song with abstract and shadowy graphics

This is a music video of an original tune, written and sung by me. I was attempting to make it like a shadow - smooth at some points, jerky at others, fleeting and altogether abstract. Woo :D Before you ask, no, isn't just random stuff, there is a bucketload of symbolism in it, but I won't tell you what it is so you can interpret yourself. Phew! Finally finished! This took me so long, from writing the song, planning the animation and then actually making it. Ugh. I'm all frame-by-frame-ed out. P.s. Go easy on crit of the song - I'm only a dabbler and haven't had a music lesson in my life

Shadow Play

A computerized journey of packets of data.

I am really sorry I haven't responded to everyone here. I haven't check up on this video in a long time and I am absolutely touched that so many of you like it so much! Thank you all! Especially you networking geeks! That's exactly what I was aiming for! The 'story' of this Flash is an abstract imagining of how data gets from your fingertips to the printer. Obviously it's missing a couple steps, but hey, it's not supposed to be totally educational! Here's some background on this Flash. At the time I was a networking student and I had been really into computers for a long time. I also enjoy drawing, animation, and programming, so this is sort of a combination of it all. I think I could do better at this if I re-did but I won't. I was thinking about making another Flash here soon, as I sort of miss doing it. Perhaps I'll make something along the lines of this, it's been a great learning experience! Thank you all again! ----------------

I'm back and with something a little different. It's not Contra Insanity, although the pixel people from CI7 are in there, and it's certainly different. Dot Matrix is a techno music video in a computer world. Many of the little jokes or ideas may not be seen or understood by someone who is not computer experienced. If you like the movie Tron, I think you'll like this one. Music is by DJ Markski "Concentrate" I would like to thank all who supported me while I made this video.

Dot Matrix: Concentrate

What do the NBA, Dick Cheney, and the Iraqi insurgents have in common? The Sovereignty Gam

Dear Newgrounds.com Members, While reading over some of the Baghdad Basketball comments, one individual – Roninmeow -- wrote an interesting review and asked if we’d explain why we made such a “controversial flash and what we meant by it”. We hesitate to respond because we generally feel that art should truly represent the interpretation of the beholder. In our opinion when an artist intervenes the magic is lost. It’s like conquering a video game without going online and acquiring cheat codes, or figuring out how to open a puzzle box without your friend showing you how to do it. The basic concept is sometimes sadly elusive, it requires one to think. We digress a bit, let's get back on point; we believe that more abstract art may require interpretative insights from the creator, but normally we here at NBX want the audience to critically think and “figure it out”. Having said that, we can understand how some people may be misinterpreting Baghdad basketball, but those are the folks that unfortunately took the flash purely at face value. So in order to bring a small semblance of direction to the fiery emotions embodied in the negative reviews, perhaps it might be helpful if we provided a few clues to help frame the creative thinking that went into the making of Baghdad Basketball. We are avid readers of politics and have very strong views of the current administration. The WAR, oh wait, let us be politically fucking correct, the “occupation” in Iraq is beyond reprehensible. Who is to answer for the devastating, inconsolable, needless loss of life, and the escalating body count? Take another look at the flash, listen carefully to the words of the characters, study the graphics and our guess is that you will start to figure it out. --NBX Team

Uh...this was a project I was assigned in school, I thought it was fairly cool so I decided to submit it here, enjoy if you will.

Abstract Music Video

I used a song from the band Gorguts, so in a way its a music video, but more of a story.
