Drunk Orson Welles animated as a frog

[@Limpurtikles]

My favourite part has always been how Orson is so drunk he doesn't notice the guy yelling "Cut!" and just keeps going.

[@seymoorepoone9512]

He noticed, but never cared.

Ever seen a drunk person in ANY alcohol ad? What other product are they afraid to show the primary effects?

​@@csn583 University, getting a job, pharmaceuticals, insurance lol most things really

[@michaelkitchin9665]

My favourite part is how Orson Welles gets off to that start and thinks, "No. I can pull this back. I'm Orson Welles."

[@Elriuhilu]

If you watch the finished ad it's great and he seems not completely maggoted.

[@asteroidrules]

He did remember all his lines, twice in a row, despite being in that condition.

He wasn't actually drunk, just trying to fight off sleeping pills, but this is still done wonderfully.

[@WarFoxThunder]

Ayy better than alcohol, and safer!

[@NessyBoy64]

yes

[@christopherrapczynski204]

Really? I've never heard this explanation before

[@Tuckerscreator]

Welles had just come back from a shoot in Las Vegas which went on all night. He took a sleeping pill expecting it to kick in during the limo ride to Los Angeles, but he didn't feel it until arriving at the commericial set. He explained it to the director, who suggested Welles film a few disposable takes before going to sleep so that they could tell the insurance people that Orson worked today.

[@Slashthekitsune]

@@Tuckerscreator ...That's actually really clever of the director.

[@DavidB-rx3km]

I love the rubbing of the eyes, the one eye closed, then the other eye closed, the eyeballs facing the wrong directions, the prodding of the bottle, the sinking down into the chair.

[@Alex-tx6by]

I think we've arrive at a point in history where more people will have seen this than Citizen Kane

[@loosecannonhunter7118]

I love how you reanimated everything perfectly, right down to the aggressive bottle tapping.

[@DavidB-rx3km]

I loved the bottle tapping bit!

[@10outta10]

This is a masterpiece, Welles himself would agree 10/10

[@Mallowolf]

The lizard sommelier’s faces! The way the lizard and the penguin startle when he exclaims “mmwaaahaaaaa the frensh”. The whole vibes, the spaced out look of the frog. The slow turn after “Paul Marcant”. I love this so much, I can’t stop watching and crying in silent laughter trying not to wake anyone up

[@carolinebender61]

…and the characters at the back, sipping warily… it just gets funnier every watch😅

[@ydodel6707]

Even when he's completely fucked he's still so sophisticated

[@jasontemlett]

Honestly, the best ad they could have wanted.

[@ryanrockers]

Oh drunk Orson, the kids will love the frog version of you on the internet years later. I do anyway.

[@KUR0.KALAM1TY]

The original outtake reel is one of my favorite videos of all time, and you've done it sweet justice. Fantastic work.

[@roddydykes7053]

Even piss drunk he could at least remember the lines. True professional

[@AgsmaJustAgsma]

Globox needs to get rid of the booze.

He's fallen down hard times ever since Rayman has been replaced by psychotic rabbits Lol

[@ofbleedingink6473]

This is perfect. The head bop at "the same french excellence" is perhaps my favorite

[@JordanAntonic]

Excuse me, that's globox. You can't fool me

[@sarahg3550]

As far as I am concerned this is the original outtake from the advert 😂😂

[@arnesashes1581]

absolutely love the way your frog slumps down, really cool animation ^^

[@BlazeHeartPanther]

Director: Cut! Bear and Rabbit: I'm outta here XD

[@Sweetumskitty1789]

This was toadally awesome.

[@WuchtaArt]

Love the frog holding the bottle, looking back and forth

[@ThePkmnYPerson]

I have no idea how this showed up in my recommendations, but I'm glad it did.

"he doesn't do anything?"

He hated doing those wine commercials so much.

[@harizotoh7]

He wasn’t drunk he was coming off sleeping pills.

AHAHAHAHAAHA OMFFGGGG

[@AngryFeminist30]

So... Bayverse Hot Rod then

[@lymb3914]

As a lover of animation, I think this is excellent work. So much life and character for a short, like the mouth movements and the eyes constantly shifting around. I especially liked the tapping on the bottle in time with his forced mispronunciation, nice flourish

[@SpammingY]

Why does this work so well

[@enigmaodell6806]

I’m trying desperately to think of a joke about the Shadow because it’s my favorite Orson Welles radio show can’t. :(

[@Conissocool]

Spectacular. Beautiful. Wonderful. One of the best pieces of media in the 21st century. Please continue on this amazing path, my friend

[@Gecko1993HogheadIncOfficial]

Welles looks like a green Globox from Rayman..:

[@chemistryguy]

I love how this never goes away, and I love love love the animation

[@jadetuin9086]

The frog really does fit. I like the lazy non-simultaneous blinking of the eyes.

[@mattouderkirk]

This might be the best thing I've ever seen

[@tjmauser6954]

Getting drunk is a pretty good endorsement

[@WakoDoodle]

The New Muppet Show looks amazing!

[@IsitheScribe]

For some reason 'drunk Orson Welles' being cast as an animated frog just...works.

[@e-mananimates2274]

I love how this is animated! Your drunk frog is so fluid and expressive with practically every part of his body!

[@mynameisharry8739]

Damn, Unicron fell off the deep end real hard...

[@64manxman]

This is really well done

[@jnnx]

Now animate this as Unicron doing the commercial for French wine. . .

[@cianfoley3117]

I would love to see that

[@elbonzo1943]

You should do more of these. This was very charming.

[@admiralwonderboat]

strange, Orson Welles doesn't sound like the brain 😆

Now go watch the song remix by Placeboing, it's one of the best things ever.

[@LOS_NEGRITOS]

to me the funniest part of the original vid is that welles' eyes are wide open but you can tell he's barely there at all still. with this you just put his voice into a sleepy frog. which is not the same.
