Hermione Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 OK so this is pretty much the best thing I've ever seen . The animation is brilliant, all the Green Day references are awesome, and it looks so cute, but at the same time it's getting across a much darker point, reflecting everything the song is about perfectly. I really hope Green Day see this, it's a masterpiece.
MarisaX Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Do you have a vote link, and if you do, what is it? * Never mind, I found it! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
GDM Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Fantastic work. PM if you would be interested in some sketch and/or animation work. The person who made this video should really follow up on this.
Sandi509 Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Love this video - posted it on my own FB earlier this week (or maybe it was last week?)... Great job - and so many Green Day references
tammy_cool Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 That really is an awesome video, definatly the best of the entries. Congrats, you should be really proud of that creation.
Flitzpiepe Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 How amazing is that?! It made me laugh so hard. I love the satiric touch of the video and the end. Just. Wow. PS: Billies pirouette, great job!
CocaColaX Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 Great video, I loved it (even though I'm not much of an animation fan) - this has to be played on an actual music chanel on tv, hope it wins !!
dangreenday Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 seen it a few times now its soooo goooooood !! how long did it take to make ? (if anyone knows - or if the guy/girl who made it is on here)
lizziebix Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 seen it a few times now its soooo goooooood !! how long did it take to make ? (if anyone knows - or if the guy/girl who made it is on here)Looks like they've only posted twice (in this thread) so I don't know if they are planning on returning or not. Sure would hope so so they can see all the great comments and likes. And to answer a few questions.btw...when are we suppose to find out the winner? Anyone know?
belinda jane Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Hoooly crap. WHY did it take me SO long to watch this?! It's seriously the CUTEST thing I have ever seen. I had such a big smile on my face the entire time. AMAZING!
Caractériel Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I've watched this so many times. I love this video. It's so creative, it's funny, it fits perfectly with the meaning of the song, it's just perfect. If I ever get back in to playing in bands, I want to hire this guy to make us a video Excellent job. The other videos in the contest don't even come close to this. Looks like they've only posted twice (in this thread) so I don't know if they are planning on returning or not. Sure would hope so so they can see all the great comments and likes. And to answer a few questions. btw...when are we suppose to find out the winner? Anyone know? The winner is announced on the 26th. Kyle was leading when votes closed, so I'd be majorly surprised if the band don't pick his entry.
Godspeeding Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 This video should actually be releases by Green Day
kuper064 Posted June 26, 2013 Author Posted June 26, 2013 Thank you for all the great comments and votes! It was announced today that my video won both the people's choice and Green Day's choice! For those of you wondering how long it took - I spent the majority of my waking hours for the month of May animating this thing... it was pretty rough, but it was worth it! And I'll definitely make more.
lizziebix Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! Your very hard work paid off BIG TIME!!!!
Iva Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Congratulations. This is more than just winning a contest. Six years ago, this band whom I no longer follow because my favourite musician is no longer with them; had a similar contest. A bunch of fans worked their asses off, solely to be beaten by a cousin of the Cohen brothers who couldn't even spell the band's name right and who was picking on some corny references, not even knowing how some of the band members looked like. In another contest, they pretty much awarded a trip to Paris to a non-existent person who posted some creepy crappy photo found on the Internet, while a lot of fans and designers were struggling to make a baseball cap design. It was horrible. And saddening. I doubt the band even cared, it was their entourage pulling pranks and taking the award(s) for themselves. Corruption. This is the very opposite of that: somebody who clearly knows and loves the band made a video with so many witty and clever references, worked hard and the band obviously saw it and liked it as much as we did. My faith in humanity has been restored. And, as I said on YouTube: use this opportunity and make a fan page on Facebook for your graphic work and animation! You're in the spotlight, you deserve it, take everything that comes to you!
Tubbie Head Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Yay Congratulations! I'm so happy you won!!! It's the best video ever! You rock! And, as I said on YouTube: use this opportunity and make a fan page on Facebook for your graphic work and animation! You're in the spotlight, you deserve it, take everything that comes to you!

It consists mostly of webcomics but I'll be posting more animations and other artwork I've done as well. You can check it out here... http://thedreamblock.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheDreamBlock

Thanks.
RokketQueen Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Excellent video. I loved it! Even my kid, who doesn't care for Green Day thought it was awesome. Congrats on your win
