HEY HEY WE'RE THE MONKEYS!!

Animation is the imagination laid bare for all to see, our own personal constructed realities shared with others, story telling in it's purest form, or just a bunch of funny shit drawn for people to laugh their arses off to. It's all good.

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MONKEYS!!

Posted by TheBoogley - August 31st, 2010

So, how are you guys doing out there in interwebs land. As usual I'm busy and don't have much time to check stuff out at the moment, but I was stoked to notice that Newgrounds got a mention as one of Time's top sites of 2010. Well played guys, both staff and contributors, you all deserve the exposure.

I just saw Did You Hear That Vol.2 and I've got to say that GoatMan, Yotam and the guys did an amazing job on it, real professional like.

So, I took a couple of days out of my life to finally do some animation, and made a quick clip for the latest Secret Handshake screening in Melbourne, while also trying my hand at a complex lipsync exercise.

The theme for this month was Jungle, so I decided I'd animate an angry chimp...

He's pretty insane... but he's got a powerful voice!

Oh and here's a stop motion piece which blew my mind the other night!

I do miss animating and chatting with you guys, I hope you're all still out there working away together. If you've made something and you're pretty sure I haven't seen it copy and paste a link below and I'll check it out and leave you a review.

Oh, and it's only TEN MORE WEEKS UNTIL MY SON IS BORN!!!

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MONKEYS!!

what will your son be named

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 21:20:31

Belvedere :3

LazyMuffin 2010-08-31 21:26:25

THANKS! I don't feel I should be named specifically though, it's really all goat-man.

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 21:26:25

Yeah, GoatMan is the king. I just named you because your wonderful work and your name have a habit of drawing a crowd. :)
I really loved the guitar thing on the menu, pling pling

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 22:34:50

turtleco 2010-08-31 22:35:10

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 22:35:10

dude... aww c'mon man, you know I love you

M-Shack 2010-08-31 22:46:50

Nice to hear from you. Good Luck with the whole father thing, hopefully you'll get back into animating after or find time for it. Or maybe even find new inspirations through him. Dont stop, i and many others enjoy your style of animation :)

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 22:46:50

thanks man, I don't plan to stop and I am still working creatively, just not in animation...

turtleco 2010-08-31 22:58:01

I did this for a collab with someone and they quit so all I have is a jumbled mess

damn, that was looking great... love the hat :)

coughing-dog 2010-08-31 23:19:25

That was NUTS

O boogles, how you find such great stuff?

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 23:19:25

that one was shown to me by a friend, most of them I find by searching through other people's posts, blogs and by asking them for a list of their favourites.

Perry 2010-08-31 23:30:11

Keep on beatling around.

TheBoogley 2010-08-31 23:30:11

very well then

Graeme 2010-09-01 01:11:48

"GoatMan is the king"
Aw shucks!! You shouldn't have.
I'm like... duke material at best

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 01:11:48

Your royal cloak is made from duke material, because you are the king and you had the duke killed, skinned and made into material which was then sown into a cloak, which you ow wear, because you are the king. Okay?

starsoldier69 2010-09-01 06:08:44

Hey buddy

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 06:08:44

hey, how are things?

LongLongCat 2010-09-01 06:11:18

i hate it when people create something so good that you have no idea how to catch up with them . lol

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 06:11:18

I hate it when cats are so long that you never think you'll be able to get as long as them :3

SpamClamberton 2010-09-01 07:35:50

Man your animations always make me feel so LAZY! And that Accumulonimbus piece just made it even worse. :c Maybe I should go watch an Ebolaworld flash so I feel like I actually try.

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 07:35:50

what? you're work is very labour intensive! I wish I didn't always make my work so hard for myself {:0

bl00db47h 2010-09-01 09:06:46

Ooh, you're gonna have to change a diaper. Also, teach the baby to animate. He's gonna be a prodigy.

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 09:06:46

Animation is going to ruin his life! He'll be an accountant for sure... heh heh

And yeah, I'm going to be the bath guy and the poop guy... because I don't have milk boobs. :(

JPB 2010-09-01 11:57:32

that is not stopmotion, its too perfect to be!
and once again your fbf amazes me

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 11:57:32

They've done a lot of work cleaning it up in the compositing, but it must've been shot as stop motion in the beginning.

THANKS DUDE!! :D

Luis 2010-09-01 13:06:18

Is that an animation of your son in the womb?

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 13:06:18

I've been yelling at him through Mel's tummy, "YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE??!! YOU'RE IN THE WOMB, BABY!!!!"

but then it gets to the you're gonna die bit and I get all nervous and worried and have to sit in the corner...

ChandlerThompson 2010-09-01 15:07:28

Congrats!

AND PEOPLE SAY WE MONKEY AROUND!

It's weird you post that song too because I listened to it in the car to school today.

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 15:07:28

COINCIDENCE or CONSPIRACY?
YOU DECIDE!!! 8O

Whysomangry 2010-09-01 20:14:13

Your kid will have a horrible name who the hell is named Belvedere

TheBoogley 2010-09-01 20:14:13

Kajenx 2010-09-02 01:05:01

TheBoogley 2010-09-02 01:05:01
