The Making of B-Boy Batman.

People liked B-Boy Batman so much that Patrick Boivin decided to create a behind-the-scenes video explaining how he animated the characters. He also gives us a view of the various stands he used in order to keep the characters upright. His setup isn't all that large either, meaning he has created a good balance around the workplace.

Patrick Boivin's B-Boy Batman.

 
This is Patrick Boivin's B-Boy Batman animation. Instead of the usual fighting the Batman and the Joker get up to, they decide to battle using a different method, by breakdancing. It's an interactive game that allows you to choose either the Batman or the Joker as you play against your opponent to completely obliterate his self confidence by spinning on your head faster than him without breaking your neck. Genius.

Even more ninjas!

Ninjas again. This one was made by Patrick Boivin and makes clever use of classic sound effects and still frames to capture the feel of old school ninja movies, much like the animation made by Glaucius Mariano. In this video the 3 ninjas use various components from a mobile phone as weapons in order to advertise them to viewers.

Ninjas!

Ninjas. They're awesome. You can almost never go wrong with them and they are a fun concept to play around with. This one in particular is an awesome animation by Glaucius Mariano that focuses on old style eastern movies like House of flying Daggers. It's got amazing effects and movements and does actually look like a live action film during certain scenes which makes it all the more enjoyable.
