Just silly.

I made this video in my first year of film.  We were presented with the "Knock Off" project in our intro to Time-Based media course or "Final Cut 101".   Art School loves this concept: choose an artwork which exists in the world and create work inspired by that piece.  Sometimes you get work that is "inspired", but a lot of the time, you get work that is...well...ripped off.

I decided to try my hand at stop motion and would animate the "Puttin' On The Ritz" scene from Young Frankenstein.  I love claymation and I figured this approach would distance the work enough from the original although the soundtrack is direct from the film.  

It's just a silly thing and I had lots of fun making it on my mom's coffee table.
