Ambivalence [Saxxy Awards 2013 - Action]

[@misterme6640]

I feel like this was supposed to be really deep, but the animation made it hilarious.

[@YapyYap]

:(

[@SlashBreakerVie]

This looks better than my 1st animation

[@mistresstaylorbowbe4]

Its just a bit too fast

[@jackgroceman6649]

When you realize that heavy was saying "team" not "tea time Doctor"

[@kaamuu557]

Jack Groceman Yea

[@notabillcipher5776]

Haha x3

[@dioxide39]

I can never unhear that thanks to you,sir

[@cheesecakesan4792]

Team time is best time :)

[@veryspecsheet7791]

I prefer tea time

[@uhrguhrguhrg]

Dat teamwork wish that it was possible in actual game

[@generalgrievous3667]

The Lazi One wat?

[@aprilfest6167]

Ye

[@tomatoalerteth]

WtF mEdIc WhY nO hEaL mE!?

[@depressedengineer5766]

I love how near the end scout just slides through the air shooting the red team and saying "I am the scout here." Really shows how much effort they put into this

[@FUNKe]

that was a pretty unique animation style, god i wish i could emulate that.

[@lma0718]

Yes! Same here.

[@robertchirco3839]

FUNKe it FUNKe

[@b.a.g9917]

hi funk

[@itzzelromero346]

FUNKe lznwisna Qkbfnqo na

[@sanuku535]

Now you can.

[@MarkIn4D]

I see that you guys keep mentioning the animation and the framerate about this video as a problem. That is actually quite relaxing to hear, cause it means that the rest is perfect. :D But I think I can show some comparison videos about this issue later.

[@tibinicle]

nyertél anno?

[@pichupichu2222]

The story is pretty good and original, but would've probably been a Saxxy worthy if the animation was better

[@captainroy3483]

it is too fasted paced

[@slowmetabolism6544]

I agree capn

[@slowmetabolism6544]

ah I know why its too fast now.cuz time limits

[@ericsmith3808]

Seems a little fast paced, but I loved it!

[@iLeMbeck]

I don't know why but every time I start up watching TF2 SFMs I always find myself back here. Seriously, something about this is just so interesting that I've always got to watch it. Just amen to you man, you've probably created my most watched animation and I honestly can't find out why.

[@MarkIn4D]

Well, thank you for the kind words! :) I only wish I could have made it better at the time.

[@assanassa5985]

So after blu spy kills red spy he pretends to be red spy to save engie

[@MarkIn4D]

Yep! Nice find.

[@assanassa5985]

***** ayyyy nice animation bud. u ever planning on making sfm's again?

[@parrotmajula5240]

Soooo after the blu spy killed the red spy. he disguised as the red spy and the red spy's corpse was disguised as a blu spy corpse.

[@rbenzing865]

Yes

[@LuckeeeStar]

"anyone still alive has let me down" brutal..

[@Unknownpro91]

Finally, a SFM where F2Ps(BLU) won against P2Ps.(RED)

[@turkishlandsknecht]

so what is your team

[@turkishlandsknecht]

+TheIntelligentSnipah so?

[@turkishlandsknecht]

+TheIntelligentSnipah yeah you intelligent snipah yeah

[@velix2835]

the engie doesnt look like f2p

[@rx-0unicorngundam832]

just because they dont wear hats doesnt mean their not f2p, my friend on steam bought multiple tour of duty tickets for an aussie, i got some graybanns cuz of him, and yet he has a page fullof hats, and he doesnt wear any (sometimes he wears a gibus or his terror watt bonk helm)

[@SinisterPixel]

Not bad at all. Your animation seems pretty good but at the same time it's pretty obvious it was done frame by frame. I'd run a smoothing filter over some of the character animations to make the movement seem more fluid and stop it from being all flickery. Also noteworthy is that a lot of your characters seemed to have parts of their foot clip into the ground at points. Holding down shift while positioning characters has been infinitely helpful to me for preventing stuff like this. Otherwise stellar work. I can tell you put a lot of effort into this and looking forward to see what you do at the next Saxxy Awards (if you decide to participate).

[@MarkIn4D]

Thank you for your comment. Actually, I did all the above, but since this doesn't have any motion blur enabled nor any kind of after editing the video looks like this. I don't wish to participate in the next Saxxy Awards, because this video taught me that even with 3-4 months behind the video, it is not worth it to rush it in the last weeks and limiting it down to fit it's rules made it even worse. Not to mention half of those nominees overwhelmed a ton of under appreciated pieces with their zombie fanbase and I don't even wish to mention those "honourable" mentions.

[@SinisterPixel]

***** Ah I see. Indeed it's unfortunate I never really end up seeing a lot of good entries till after the saxxy awards end. Things that I would have voted for if I'd seen them sooner. Either way keep at it because there's some good stuff here.

[@C.A._Old]

Oh My God i still remember that days.

[@a.m.arteaga8369]

About time the BLU team won!!!! :L

[@bakenbacon3224]

A.M. Arteaga BLU BEST TEAM !!11

[@turkishlandsknecht]

***** blu is tha best

[@aduanich4871]

+baken Bacon ! D:

[@hammerman275]

this was a great movie, and to be honest, i love the jittery frame rate, giving it more of an Gmod like feel, but since everything is moving smoothly, and for 5 minutes, make it all the more feeling of it been more impressive. well done

[@Home_Reuben]

You don't know how hard it is to look for something out of memory you don't remember the name of. XD

[@donjohnlopez1801]

Yeah true cuz i remember this animation but never remember the name XD

[@krieghound3931]

It blows my mind that this was made 5 years ago already. I remember watching it soon after it was put out

[@MarkIn4D]

Yeah, I remember it too

[@arabianknight6728]

4:34 hacks XD

[@DoggoBoi0090]

was he using baby face blaster tho?

[@jonathansmithers2763]

@@DoggoBoi0090 Nope. And even with Baby Face's Blaster, you can't go that fast.

[@dapperfield595]

More like lag

[@Default0102]

Nem mindennap lát az ember magyar Saxxy résztvevőt. Szép munka, a feeling tökéletesen átjött. Good luck!

[@MarkIn4D]

Ahogy magyar hozzászólásokat sem Saxxy videók alatt. :D Köszönöm szépen! :)

[@geraldhinojosa7474]

Great plot & momentum in the story telling. Those 2 are the most important, the whipping on the cake is refining the animation, but yeah loved it :) keep it up!

[@nuevesc]

Thank you very much for the feedback and a constructive comment! :D

[@ProfRussianKoco]

Everything escalated to quickly.

[@Sh1tsNGiggles42]

This is crazily good. It reminds me of Crank and the frame rate just makes it more pleasurable

[@kei130]

at 4:36 how much ping does scout has he like lagging everywhere

[@trollonrgaming5904]

lag; that man cqc teleporting

[@sampohonkanen8686]

i really freaking loved this, the humor, the voice lines used, like "another satisfied customer" and "this thing aint on autopilot son"! absolutely loved it!

[@AdminiumWarrior]

I don't care that the animation is a lil sketchy. I loved it c:

[@Ganwho]

The animation had its highs and its lows, but overall, my favorite Saxxy entry yet, and I've seen a lot.

[@herbal4599]

The bad thing about this vid is that everything goes to quickly

[@MrVulcanator]

I like your unique style of animating. I've never seen any animation with this sort of look to it. Good job.

[@PikminandOatchi]

Son this thing anit on autopilot Epic Enginess.

[@justiceinmysprite3021]

Animation style was the whole sfm,it was awesone, GREAT JOB B

[@THED3ATHCR33P3R671]

"You're a disgrace to the uniform!" **smacks Soldier with ham**

[@ThePainTrain765]

The slower frame rate actually made it more interesting to watch! :D

[@TheOwlslayer]

As some other comments have said, the animations could use a bit more work, but i really dig the whole idea behind the video, and the plot itself. A very interesting vid.

[@shooterxdmainchannel9784]

This animation is my favorite of all time so far. Good job

[@spyro1201]

"Bomb is friend. Come, visit friend!" Love that line. Great clip, though!

[@pinkichigosk8]

Love the story and the animation. The animation has a stop motion feel to it. It's quirky but I view that as one of the video's charming points. Great job : )

[@jacksonjosephjproductions9812]

This looks like a really smooth Gmod animation.

[@Jay-hu6ne]

The first half reminded me of a gmod style stop animation which I thought was awesome and it brings back the heritage of these shorts and saxxy's

[@purplebunz]

Love the one heavy robot who says "this is bad " in every fmv ever

[@Chilemex15]

Very nice video, the story is very cool. I just can't understand why was the Medic so upset at the beginning...

[@DoomDragonRider]

Once again, spy save the day.

[@omegamoogle]

with sniper, demo, and pyro...

[@DoomDragonRider]

omegamoogle He began the plot twist

[@anxious_sins9341]

Spy: Just let Your Weapons Down and walk Away.. Blu Engineer: you Snake..

[@whatsthatsupposedtomean3104]

The SFM übercharge always flickers like it’s about to end, so you improvise by übercharging the entire team because it drains your übercharge very quickly if you do that

[@TheGameboy137]

mann vs machine or normal?

[@kabhes9040]

both

[@theangriestbunny]

It'll be cool if they had a mode like that.

[@DoggoBoi0090]

why not both at the same time

[@aliencrackgrunt]

Mann vs mann vs machine

[@jakehackney1718]

Good job! once the action scene started i had to watch it 3 times to fully understand whats going on.

[@etorandyll6925]

One of the best Source Filmmaker videos I have ever seen.

[@CrashTheSystem96]

I wasn't expecting you're going for the Saxxies. Good job! I like the animation at the beginning because it's so stop motion-like. I dunno if this is made on purpose but I like it! I'm looking forward to see more from you two =)

[@MarkIn4D]

Thank you! We already have a ton of ideas and actual plans for the future. :)

[@LuaLuo]

I would love to see this reanimated today by someone like the winglet. This was really good, and i really enjoyed the story.

[@greendude7650]

Amazing work i never get tired of theses.

i feel like ive seen five minutes from an hour long masterpiece

[@MarkIn4D]

Hah, wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but thank you. :) I did cut out 1-2 minutes of footage to fit the limit of the contest.

[@danee993]

Márk Morshu Szép munka! Nekem nagyon tetszett amit itt megcsináltál :)

I love the implementation of Half-Life music around 2:00.

[@teddy292929]

That was absolutely amazing, 10/10.

[@zheozymark7743]

It's really impressive.

[@wong_bwong]

Finally! A Sfm where red are the bad guys and Blu are the good guys! Nice Job and fantastic story Iine.

Why, thank you

[@Fatpiepro]

Didn't expect to see a video like this from you Márk, and that ending was awesome! You did a good job man, good luck in the saxxy's! (you have my vote)

[@MarkIn4D]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :) I really wanted to do a video that is "Saxxy quality" enough compared to last year's winners and nominated videos. Girlfriends are cool.

[@belgainwafflehead5686]

Animation wasn't the best I've seen, but this video was still real we'll made.

[@CaptainRex143]

Rare protagonist and WINNING Blu team? I'm sold.

[@TheDodecaheathen]

Congrats, you are my 500th Favorite.

[@LittleThiefEllie]

I though the animation was about to be those glitched ones with poor audio, however clearly I was incorrect. This was one of the best animation I have seen.

[@MarkIn4D]

Thank you, tho I still feel it could have been better in a lot of places.

[@nelord7000]

This brilliant. Just a video of an awesome team being awesome.

[@kHz33]

Esküszöm te vagy az első magyar aki SFM-el animál. (Na jó nem, csak az aki Saxxy-ra is benevezett). Nagyon jó lett :D

[@mastergameplay1164]

Nem Magyar a srác

[@KarjamP]

To be perfectly honest, the bad animation and framerate issues actually makes this seem a lot more like a stop motion animation... which isn't really a problem. In fact, it's the perfect combination of these flaws that allows the video to be more enjoyable anyway since it's just enough to satisfy one's willing suspension of disbelief. The video's flaws are _working together_ to help capture life in a more believable manner.

[@iamnotbrave2525]

Team work makes the dream work 😇

[@MarkIn4D]

Precisely!

[@misspauling2065]

I guess the RED team did deserve that lesson. They should've been more efficient and not have mocked their enemies before even killing them.

[@elibarlas9732]

That spy was the flaw he saved blu Also red sucks blu is AWSOME that's why I don't do the objectives

[@TheSterMan01]

They are no different whatsoever.

[@misspauling2065]

***** Yes. You could have simply been more efficient.

[@tf_pilot191]

Eli Barlas I mostly play on RED team when I join because BLU Team sucks!

[@tf_pilot191]

Miss Pauling RED Pilot: Well, leave that to me, Time for pranks!

Moral of the story: Never mess with a stock heavy

[@Minecraftminer3000]

This is amazing! Just a little thing - the animation looks a bit gmody, but that makes it special. Keep up the good work!

[@YoshiBlad3]

Other than the jitteriness of this animation, I really quite enjoy it. You've got something here, and it's good. With a little more dramatic buildup, I think this would be pretty damn fine.

[@waffl3z-d640]

I think this deserves a longer and more epic sequel or is it just me.

[@Heinz_Stresseinheimer]

Damn I really liked that, well done! The animation wasn't _that_ bad, I actually Liked it!

a tiny moment when heavy crushes a robo-demoman, and the one says "FACK" before dying - that was hilarious! :D it's on after, chek it 2:46

[@jonathansmithers2763]

For some reason, if you slow it down to .25 speed, it has the upper body of a Standard Demo, and the lower body of a Robot Demoman.

[@assanassa5985]

Please continue animating u have so much potential

[@sannienie7226]

Scout's yawn is literarily it forward, then reversed
