///A Film directed and animated by MUSCLEBEAVER///

MSLBVR 2008 (c)

This animation we did was planned and animated for the prologue of a documentary.
(That explains the absurd, unfinished seeming, ending.That is where the actual documentary starts.... )
The briefing was to show an evolution of computer games.
The documentary itself is about different people, based here in germany, showing their everyday life, and their addiction to the same specific, famous MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game):"Wo.."

Every game character in this prologue was reinterpreted, redrawn (...one pixel at a time), and animated frame by frame.
