They seem to have fixed the Flash Preview glitch.

Its a dance video tribute to Bonus Stage; my favorite webtoon on the net. What is Bonus Stage? If you dont know, head over to [link]
I'm going to revise my comments and try to summarize:
This is version 2. Not much longer. I think I learned all I could from it.
I added a few things. Wait after the end credits, and theres a big mural of all the characters dancing/posing. But afterwards, it just shows that until the song is over. I'm not too sure how well that will work on slower computers, or on the internet in general, but it plays fine on my computer. So comments on that please.
This is my first animation in which I used techniques such as motion blur, and stretch & squash. So bear with me if parts seem a bit odd. I'd like some comments on how that turned out too.
A Closing Statement:
I hand drew every frame seen here, no tracing. Even the mouth movements and the head shapes. Though I did use some references, so as not to fudge things up. Also, I am not affiliated with Couch Slave Studios in any way.
Version Info:
Version 1 took 4, 14 hour days in a row to make. Version 2, I updated sporadically over a span of 2 and a half weeks. It feels a bit rushed, to me. I actually liked the flow better of the original. Oh well.

Hey, not bad. But now I must know (since it's been bothering me since I first heard it), you say the music is done by Paul Sumpter, what's the name of the song!? I've been looking for it for a very long time, sorry.
In other news, great flash, and a fitting homage to the series.

I want to say "New Orleans Funk," but don't quote me on that. Just give it a search, you might get results. Oh, and thank you.

Nah, I don't think it is, cos I've tried that and come up with some other stuff. Good stuff, but not what I was looking for.
Oh, and you're welcome.

I am not the creator of bonus stage nor am I affiliated with him. Its stated in the comment clearly. Not to mention the credits show "Animated by James Orth" and "Characters by Matt Wilson."
And Bonus Stage is over. There will be no more episodes.

Where are all you people comming from? I submitted this months ago, and in just the past two weeks, like 10 more people favorited this.
I'm not trying to seclude anyone, or make offense.. Just a bit curious.
And thanks for the comment

Well, I found your video through someone else's favorites.

Ah I see. Well that explains that.
Maybe its just a huge series of coincidences.

Treelor, God of Christmas, is a pretty interesting character.
This is my favorite series. Though the creator seems to have went dead for quite a few months now.

I won't be a dick. I guess it was okay, my only gripes, far too short and I had no idea what June said there.
This is a grace period. Get goin' or I will spam your ass. Sexually.

"Shockwave sucks, Vacuum" A witty BS come back I must say...I think she said that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, its "shockwavesounds.com".
Its the poor quality of the audio tag they throw on there. I was gonna have flashing text say it, but that looked kind of trashy, and distracted from the June. Which the lipsynching was one of the harder parts.

Wow...the place change.
Anyway. NOOOOOOOO why did it end?!?!??! you must finish this. Ya the most used line when flashs are only done or its a demo. Anyway it rocked...but.ya Keep Elly alive man [BS fourms]. In anycase...I had to sneak and log in to just tell you this. Laters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, I've just finished the second half. Its not very eventful, but I added about... oh.. 4 more characters?
Also, Elly's not dead. She just died. In the Bonus Stage world, these things are very different.

The movements were so clean and smooth. It must have been so hard to get everything on frame. Good work

Thanks. It was quite an effort. But thanks to Onion Skinning, it was a bit easier. I love that feature, and dont know what I'd do without it.

Waitaminute... What's "Onion Skinning"

Theres a good description. Its mighty handy. Its quit similar to tracing paper, or flipping between pages in a flip book.

and uh SWEET DANCE..DR

Awesome. THe animations are smooth and so are the moves

Hehe, thanks. I really want more people to know about this. I worked 4 FULL days on this. From the time I woke up, to the time I went to sleep. Only breaking for bathroom and soda. More than 14 hour work days. Of my own free will though.
I guess I feel like this Flash is worth more than its getting. I dont know. I'll have to do more work, and spread the word I guess.

yeah! totally, it shows too! i think its a great animation and did you think of those dance moves yourself? I love the break dancing! Ive faved this, and im sure more people would!
