Flippovision - Army Men
Plastic army men engage in combat.
(7/26/11) Thanks for the comments. I'm not very active, but I'll try to answer a few questions I've seen:
- I got the plane at a Wal-Mart around 1996. I haven't seen another in a long time. I'm not even sure where mine is.
- Some friends from high school and I made this back in 2001. We used 12 frames per second so that video is a compilation of approximately 7,000 still photos.
- Shooting took place over a couple weeks, so it's hard to estimate the exact time. Generally one person manned the camera, one or two moved the pieces, and one shuttled floppy disks with the pictures to the computer. (We only had an old Sony Mavica.)
- We compiled the video with Adobe Premiere. We originally planned to add fire effects and muzzle flashes, but ran out of time. We added sound effects, text, etc. with that program.
- Likewise, we built the blue box with the intention of blue-screening the background, but it didn't work as well as we hoped. (See the takeoff sequence.) We decided it would look cleaner to just leave the blue background. We did use the blue-screen for the helicopter, though.
- We wrote a high level script that generally described each scene and what would take place, including approximate times for each shot. (E.g. "Squad wades to shore - ten seconds.") Before shooting each mini-sequence, we would finalize the plan.
- We shot scenes in the order of increasing likelihood that they would damage our box. We used plastic lining to hold in the water for the beach scene, but shot it last because we were afraid it would ruin our set. (It actually held pretty well.)
Overall, it was a lot of fun. I'd highly encourage anyone else to give something like this a shot.

Episode 1's most annoying character gets his comeuppance.
Can't believe it's been this long and I remember it so well
Nostalgia 😢
i still remember this video after so long
17 years later and i still vividly remember watching this vifeo for the first time.
Same bro, good old days
@@aarons.parker2854Dino nuggets, chips, choccy milk, 480p on CZcams was HD and cartoons to catch 😭
I have to be honest, I kinda miss old school youtube. They don't make them like they used to.
Seriously I honestly agree with you, I am in utter disbelief at how youtube now resembles TV if anything, so hard to find passionate projects like this where it was just a bunch of kids having fun in their living rooms
I swear this was 4k resolution when i was a kid 😭
A simpler time.
Still want that plane
First comment in 10 years.

2006 !!!
I'm watching this in 2017 jun 6
Who's watching this in 2016?
Damn, that was cool, man.
Fun video even if it was made 10 years ago. I couldn't make one. Wouldn't know where to begin a project this complicated. One thing I noticed in the opening sequence is it appears you used real grass glued to the helmets of the tan soldiers in the ambush. First time I've seen someone do that in a stop motion movie like this. Nice effect. Hope you can once again be active making videos like this. I'd like to see how you have progressed with your knowledge and skills.

Good but needs better graphics
Ross Rosenbaum this was made 10 years ago idiot...
