Vulture Culture 💀 Animation Meme

I think this is the longest time I've spent on an animation meme! Took 3 months!! Regardless, I really enjoyed making this! And the song really stuck with me! And just in time for Halloween!
Song: Vulture Culture - Fangclub @FANGCLUB OFFICIAL
Original Meme: This one, its this. The title was just too long to add "Original" lmao.
Idk if a lot of you know this but I used to run a science/educational blog based on "Vulture culture". Vulture culture: is an online subculture and form of hobbyist taxidermy based on the collection and preservation of animal remains. It takes its name from the practice of working with animals that have died of natural causes, as opposed to hunting or trapping.. Was a great time! Got to meet up with people at the Natural History Museum in London, learned how to tan leather, clean skulls, and label things for museum collections! I'm not active in the vulture culture community any more since animation mostly took over. But my house still looks like a mini museum. 😂

When Cadaver was talking to the skull I couldn't help but think about that one scene from one of the Ice Age movies where the weasel was talking to the skull and it triggered nostalgia from a while ago. Thank you for animating this!

Can we appreciate all the DETAIL in this? The individual folds on Kedaver’s pants, each individual bone, the changing perspective of the skulls? Your anatomy and movement never fail to blow me away. There’s nothing wrong with simple headbobbing and loops, but you go the extra mile in a way I’ve never seen before in animation memes

I just noticed that the animation starts the same way it ends, with a shot of the skull followed by a shot of Cadaver. Really cool detail!

ARM. We know he was summoned and created to kill someone but his pact was broken after someone (Eddie) killed the person, then the confrontation I guess, but now what? . . .Is Cadaver rotting or something?

When he was playing with the skull why did it remind me of Scar in the old movie playing with an animal skull if I’m right

[@fearlesswolf5633]

Yeah I can totally see that

[@simple_acount]

I wonder what the real meaning behind this is. Is it that Cadaver is scared to not exist anymore or is it that he's scared to keep living (so to speak)? Is he contemplating death and whether or not he'll be able to embrace it or evade it? Maybe he's "expirementing" with death (ie. Killing other) and wondering if it'll come back to bite him? Either way, I love your work! It's extremely smooth and the colors are fantastic!

[@zyanidwarfare5634]

I dunno, by the name and lyrics I’m thinking it’s how most feed off of one another’s misfortune, like two businesses competing, one may go under and the other swoops in to buy their assets and essentially devour them, in many aspects of our culture one must suffer for another to prosper, like the thief who became rich by stealing someone’s life savings

[@zicdragon]

[@DemonicCylo555]

Welp i think everyone can agree that this is truly a breathtaking animation! Like where on earth do i begin?, the smooth animation, the transitions and the amount of detail in the skulls and overall animation is so inspiring and you’re one of my biggest inspirations in the whole world. I’m so glad you where one of the reasons why i started animation and want to have it as a career because your animations give me hope and joy in this world, a specially when i’m feeling down. Thank you so so much you’re amazing and you should be so proud of yourself for what you create! Can’t wait for my plush of cavadar to come!

[@DaydreamingDrawings]

THIS IS SO COOL WHAT THE HECK!!! your animations keep getting better and better. The skulls are so cool! I love how you managed to do lipsync on a skull! its usually pretty hard to do lipsync on something that doesnt have........you know...lips, but you pulled it off! so crazy cool!

i just realized something... i watched your video "no place like home" and thought hey, this style looks familiar... So i went to your first ever video uploaded on this YT channel "Wolf MV" and Im shocked. I have that exact video on my old DSi to this day. I remember looking up to your art style so much when I was younger, so much so that I developed my own art style from it. Ive only followed you for about a year now (maybe) only to discover ive actually known about you since I was about 10 years old. (Im 20 now). I just thought it was crazy how I found you later and am still baffled by how amazing your animation is, and always has been. I looked up to you even though back in those times, social media was barely on the rise. I just thought this was really cool, makes me wonder where the rest of my old fav animators are today.
