Haha, cool
![]() Good vid that, better knowing it was done in D-Paint. fiath, why do you doubt? All looks perfectly doable in D-Paint... pixel animation is always labour intensive. Here at work the artists use ProMotion to do their graphics/animations, which is basically D-Paint for Windows. |

(I thought they would use some "helper" software. i.e. instead of drawing frames, they say "this object will go from A to B over these frames" or "bend and rotate object 34 degrees". But maybe not ![]() ProMotion, nice! I will have a look at that ![]() |

Incredible funny stuff!
The video is amazing! Very cool!!! I also have some doubt about using DPaint. For a such animation, you need a lot of time, AND a LOT of memory, if they were using an Amiga they are cool but really crazy! If they are using DPaint under an emulator... well, they are crazy... and nothing else! ![]() |

I have contacted Shynola asking for more info. My theory is this: they have created a bunch of animations in DPaint and post-processed them later in AfterEffects or something. The part I think IS hard to do is when it fades from one to the other (there's a part where there's an anim of J&S dancing, fades to SENIOR, fades back to dancing, and fades to JUNIOR). That would be fucking hard to do.
As for the rest I think it's perfectly doable in DPaint by experts like these. the guys are huge. If they made the fade by hand, they are frigging gods. Think that the resolution for this is small, it could have been handled by an amiga with 128MB of RAM. And we don't know if they used Deluxe Paint Animation on the PC. I'm awaiting more info from them. Still a cool job. These guys use top-of-the-line tools for making their videos, why did they chose DPaint to make this one? Food for thought for those who say DP can be replaced easily. I say it can't. |

However, I read a while ago that they used WinUAE, so that idea goes out the window. |

Yeah, the transitions between each clip and arrangement to fit the music are surely done in some video editing software like Adobe Premiere. Memory shouldn't be a problem as each little bit would be a seperate animation.

Anyway, you heard they used winUAE? What a pity. That means they still had to cope with PC's shitty mouse operations. If they used PCs they could have as well opted to use Deluxe paint Animation. I'm waiting for their reply ![]() |

I doubt Jr/Sr made Shynola use Deluxe Paint. They approached shynola because of the kind of concepts they handle and how the ycommunicate it, and Shynola makes the proposition in exchange for a load of cash. It's not like I go to some guys who make videos and tell them "Here's 100.000 dollars, make me a videoclip using Atari basic" |

It sure looks like DPaint animations merged with some image processing software to me. The font at the end looks exactly like the basic Dpaint-6 style. I spent some time when I first got a clone PC looking for something like Dpaint 5 on the Amiga but couldn't find anything that I liked as much.
I wonder how long it took (and how many people were involved?) I've done long & small scale animations like that (not as good or smooth of course) and it takes a suprisingly long time. It's a pitty no-one bothered putting much effort into the music ![]() |

Shynola consists of 5 or 6 guys, no more. Developments time in this industry use to be shortt, so something between 15 and 30 days, I'd say.
