Duck Heart Teslacoil

[@progers]

I've shown this many times to my Digital Animation students. This is a brilliant example of what you can achieve using Adobe Flash and deserves WAY more hits than this. Also, thank you for the additional tutorials - they have been a great help.

[@richyriff]

Can't wait to see the next film by Tyler J. Kupferer!

[@akaboyfilm]

That was great ! Beautiful, light and creative at the same time. This is one of my first reference at this time, now. Definitely. Thank you so much !

[@BellusFortis]

So adorable, and very well done.

[@snoopyoutube]

AN AMAZING CHARCTER ANIMATION! I love the little duck's personality! love every part of it! I found it very hard to animate frame by frame! it takes all of my patience and you makes it seem so easy! AMAZING WORK!

[@TyKtv]

This is quite honestly the best 2D animation I have EVER seen on KZbin, especially the storyline, it was hilarious and well planned. I myself am an animator in Flash, and I'm really looking forward to watching your tutorials because you're a great animator! Props to you!

[@projexstudio]

a very good work! I like it! and thankz for all the good tutorials ya uploaded. They help lots.

[@thomasbr7337]

Best flash animation i ve seen!

[@thomasbr7337]

Indeed

[@_shonneri]

This was great, after I finish finals this tuesday I'm going back over your tutorials. This was just absolutely amazing. Im a fine artist but I can never wrap my mind around animating. I just got Flash, so I'm definitely going to try my hand at it before I take a class this fall. Amazing work! Btw, my daughter sat here and watch this whole thing with smiles and she liked the music! lol

[@rainell1]

i love how you utilized flash. it looks lovely

[@StellaRoseTea]

It's so pretty, I love the style.

[@flyawaybutterfly1]

4:18 - "You don't like fire?" *head shake* "Oh, but... That's my hello fire..." How cute! :D MAKE MOAR!

[@iENJOYpaintingSTUFF]

wow, I can't think of anything to say other than amazing!

[@smooth_Koala]

THAT WAS WAY TOO CUTE.

[@eclipse3802]

Omg so cute! I love it got to watch it again and again!

[@iRFANtgo]

beautiful. I like the story nice work. and music is pretty cool

[@yashrg]

@Base14Productions I saw this at the scad grad show and I loved it. I did not even know this was online. Now that I know, I will help spread the word.

[@Mackmation]

Great to see this online, loved it at scadanimate

[@ZaneBlalock]

Very talented work =o I'm so jelly!

[@svideomonkey08]

AWESOME! you need to go more tutorials!! Nice work!

[@MihokoDes]

I LOVE THIS! very good job!

[@JamesDonkeySF]

The style of this animation is second to none. I love everything about it especially the arrt style. Im currently working on some ideas for an animation for University but I'm struggling with how to design my characters. I've got ideas but I love that style youve got. any tutorials on how to design a character using that style? Tips on characters and backgrounds would be much appreciated. Seriously this is an amazing animation...I love it.

[@dmohninger]

This is a well thought out story, a good narrative, and very imaginative. I'm surprised that your number of hits at the time of this comment is only in the 5000s. Please keep up the great work. I'm now very interested in the marriage of Illustrator and Flash. I think I shall try a bit of that myself. Thanks! - Derek

[@CiaranTheDinosaur]

This is amazing

[@pulpfictionost]

great vid, great tutorials, thanks

[@ANMNP129]

@Base14Productions Drawing with only a tablet probably takes some getting used to. Best of luck on your next film and thanks for answering my questions. Also, you should submit this to film festivals like The Animation Show, etc.

[@TheRawrjamface]

Amazing job dude

[@DarkKidGamer]

Awesome!

[@silverblaize]

loved it!

[@ArcadeFL]

How long it takes ? and in 3:29 that machine was 3D or what ? :-O because the camera goes like 3D ... this is really good keep going in it :) Its like Happy Tree Friends ... i mean kind of it ....

[@ArcadeFL]

and what about the bug in 3:00 what he have on the mouth ?

[@NeroDeamon]

fantastic visuals....keep up the good work...lot of ppl know how to animate but only a few know how to keep up the quality.... .. i have one question though the electricity/lightning did not look like it was flash made .. [or i could be wrong]......was it??

[@mandigasatyasagar7484]

Can you please... please make more animation tutorial. I loved our video and i am really surprised that it just got a very few views.

[@svideomonkey08]

ok, so if you do take my advice I'd like to see how make the big bear guy turn his body. or see how you would make the bus turn. or talking and mouth movements. thanks!!

[@kjansen52]

that wuz super cute ans awesome!! :)

[@TheDragoFreezer]

Very well done espacially in the background and decors how did it take you just to draw them (^o^)

[@VanillaSky16]

This is awesome. Im learning AF with Photoshop and Flash. Just wondering if you had to pick one for animation, which one would you prefer?

[@chewyx47]

this should be a disney/pixar short

[@matabebeee]

Genial!!

[@ANMNP129]

Wow, thats pretty fast compared to what I've been hearing from other animators. Preproduction would entail the plot, character designs, BG's, storyboards? It all looks really good! I was wondering how one would go about animating something more complex such as something in anime style with lots of composition.

[@ANMNP129]

@Base14Productions Hand drawn photographed? And out of curiosity, are you paying your crew or is it just a bunch of friends?

[@tomwdent]

nice work =]

[@ArcadeFL]

@Base14Productions you are good in animating you should make more tutorials ... :) and i like to know how to the that in 3:29 :)

[@LoadNewGame]

wow that was really good

[@MohanABK]

hey Who is Tyler J. Kupferer? He is talented! How old is he? He is professional right? He is soo talented that im subbing just because of him.

[@pattyx7]

Awsome job! Im also a SCAD student. Did you do this with flash?

[@ANMNP129]

How long did it take you to make this, from beginning to end?

[@intaradearseventeen]

OMG!!! your vid so cute :D i love your DACK !

[@illDiology]

First off very good art direction with the characters and backgrounds. The "cardboard cutout" aesthetic is done to perfection here, makes South Park look like trash. Secondly I used to work professionally with Flash and it looks like the software has come a LONG way since back then (2005). Is that "focus" effect just a filter or something? Also the tumbling of the box looks perfect, physics-wise - is there some trick to this? Finally great use of tweening, everything looks so smooth.

[@NonExistantPoet]

Hi. I made a really short video in flash (about 5 seconds long) and it took 20 minutes to upload to youtube, and I was wondering if you have had the same problem and if you know a way to make the upload time shorter? Thanks, and I love your video :D

[@npj5578]

Hey I dont suppose you could do a few more tutorials as to how you made this? Like the Orange characters walk cycle? cheers :) btw LOVE this animation hha

[@Thaumazo]

amazing did u draw the graphics yourself?

[@fretshr3dder]

my bus driver would have left me....

[@gregkrazanski]

Wow the effects animation on the lightning was amazing. How are you getting motion blur here? Is it reelsmart? Or did you somehow set it up to use after effects native motion blur?

[@NonExistantPoet]

@Base14Productions I was afraid of that :\ thanks for the quick reply though :D

[@ImInsulin]

Awww thats sho kewttttt

[@gregkrazanski]

Hey, thanks so much for the reply, but just to clarify, if you import an swf or flash file into after effects and turn motion blur on for the comp and layer, is motion blur automatically applied, or are there some other workflow tricks? (I don't have flash, which is why I'm asking instead of testing.) Thanks again, and your work is really gorgeous.

[@enzowars]

sick dude :D

[@DAMINATION]

i like it =)

[@welchwelchwelch]

What programs did you use for the animating?

[@andrewtrinh6171]

0:53-1:36-2:06-3:48

[@illDiology]

I am off to check out all your Flash tutorial vids, but I have heard from multiple people now that modern Flash is much, much improved in regards to handling things like stretch and squash. Is this something you could elaborate on here if you have time? I try to research on google but all I've found so far is "inverse kinematics", which looks cool, but getting smooth and consistent animation from Flash in 2005 was a TON of work, and in some ways harder than doing it in with paper.

[@MultiDukeman]

hey i am dieing to become a animation producer on youtube. can you message me what i might need and how to use them. that would really awesome. and great video loved it so funny.

[@GsideTV]

That is honestly fucking amazing! This is all done in flash! I've worked in flash but nothing like this! What program do you use to construct your character models and such?!

[@Zaylien]

cute

[@yellowkillSC]

damn duck murdered that innocent bus driver and no one cares???she had a family!a husband and two kids who now have no mother.it should be in jail getting quacked in the quaker
