Tim Chiavaroli 1 year ago

Wow...grazie, grazie Dan! U b da man, baby. Big gobs of mirthfulness and cool running's your way > for directing me on over towards this 4 minutes and 4 seconds of just sheer crazed phantasmagorical wonderment. May you be having more fun than a bevy of hummingbirds licking up a cracked open watermelon that just bounced off a beat to livin' hell, 1954 Willys Jeep Station Wagon 4x4 with a "Super Hurricane" Flathead 6-226 motor, with standard "3 on the tree", of course...that rolled itself over to the side of some lil' ol' single number dirt county road on a wicked, steamin' hot summer day. OK? BTW..I know I have been A.W.O.L for quite a few full moons. So...hey, nothing but peas in your world, everytime, all the time.

Tobias...take a bow to acknowledge your applause and praise! Time is tight and it's out of sight! I've U-boated. Because, you are a breathing object of true marvel and esteem, some phantom third nipple peaking out from the coruscations of great wit. We need to keep our watchful eyes on you. So, dig it! Keep on, keepin' on...and now go out and have yourself some wild weekend beyond all reasonable limits of imagination, si capisce! ~ Tim

I love the music and the concept is so cool man! i really liked it man! Congratulations!

I wonder how much patience that took
Tobias Stretch 1 year ago

Haha, patience is not my #1 trait but sometimes you just have to get the job done, perhaps driven is a better word.
Gracias Luigi!

Great work again. When I watch your work I get these conflicting thoughts about the spontaneity of the narrative and the time consuming nature of the process. Do you have things planned out clearly when you start or do you let it get away from you a bit?
Tobias Stretch 1 year ago

Thanks, usually about 90% is planned. This one does have a very specific linear narrative, as most of mine do, but its simply about losing your mind, a subject which doesn't lend itself to having a slick kind of narrative.
Thanks a bunch Gabe!
Darryl Miller 1 year ago

love it love it love it love it
what in the world is 7D ?
Like I mentioned before.... I would love to use some of your "outs" in my current music/film project.... It would be interesting to see what you consider to be an out....
as always.... this was a very enjoyable film. Take care

A 7D is a great Canon camera, everyone should own one!

Awesome.
The combination of the music and the images is just perfect.
Tobias Stretch 1 year ago

That's always the most important part to these I suppose, trying to do the band right and find the flow of the track. I'm real stoked that you think I succeeded at this! Thank you so much!

Lifelong Memories Films 1 year ago

I continue to be amazed by your work and creativity. I agree with one of the earlier comments made that you should make a behind the scenes making of your work. It much more than just stop motion. Sharing the creation of your puppets and what goes through your mind would be interesting
