Bail Skipper (video by Pat Marr) A.Hugh Jiddyut

Thanks Pat, it's great to see the Jiddyuts in Action!

Not many people know, I once was a desperate criminal on the run
……. yeah I was arrested and sent to jail ……for Jaywalking……….
drunk……… and nekid in front of the police station….
in rush hour, pulling a wagon with a keg of Jack Black in the back,
by a pony dressed like Madonna. True Story

Got no good reason, don't know just how I got in here
Ain't drunk still in season, if so just give me another beer
I ain't no bail skipper, so call me a bondsman dear
It took me sooo long, to get this drunk
I'm real drunk

Drunk ain't no reason, the judge won't a lower my bail
I said that's treason, a puttin me under the jail
I ain't no bail skipper, so call me a bondsman dear
It took me sooo long, to get this drunk
I'm real drunk

Take care of my pony, watch out for that keg of Jack Black
Pay alimony, if it's still there when I can get back
I ain't no bail skipper, so call me a bondsman dear
It took me sooo long, to get this drunk
now I'm real drunk

Dang I never get that banjo ending right!

Hey Tommy,

From the first time I heard one of the songs done in your "Hugh Jiddyut " persona, I knew we needed to take the vivid mental images you created and make them real!

A pony dressed like Madonna?? REALLY??? well.. yeah... ;-) What kind of person thinks this stuff up?? LOL! The good news is you have an outlet, and you don't have to keep ideas like that bottled up!

Anyway, this song was full of opportunities to illustrate the lyrics, and it was a totally fun exercise listening to your song and trying to figure out how to represent it in visual form.

I thank you for giving me an opportunity to work with you on this... I think the end result is a good indication of what happens when two people who spend wayy too much time inside their brains step outside for long enough to collaborate!

There are places in the song where it sounds like the audience is singing along (as opposed to using public domain laugh tracks)... did you have others help to record the crowd noises? We want to hear all the interesting details...

Standing O!, for both of ya...

Tommy - clever write and excellent recording and mix (easy to miss those facts when done this well).

Pat - you have out-done yourself! Your attention to detail is a delight.
The crowd grooving on the music...
The "drunk walk" in front of the station...
"drunk weaving" at the table...
the camera movements and pans...
the clock movement...
the ending banjo notes are timed perfectly with the video (vice versa, really)...

The ending is classic! Laugh Out Loud funny!!!

Home Run, y'all!

glad to hear you say that, Floyd! I think Tommy's songs are awesome, but the view counter doesn't indicate that he's getting the attention these songs deserve

I really appreciate the fact that you notice details like that... any detail in an animation was put there on purpose, and sometimes the details only appear in passing as the camera moves thru a scene. All the characters grooving to the music took a lot of time, but its so peripheral its easy to miss.

I guess its true that if its seamless enough that most people don't notice, that means I did my job!.

One of the problems with music videos is that the lyrics tend to repeat, and there is a tendency to reuse the same animation for each chorus. (boring)... One advantage of 3D animation is that the same scene can be used, but viewed from a new camera angle, which makes it seem new.

Thanks again for posting your valuable observations... you have a keen eye to go along with your keen ear!

Thanks Floyd, Pat's attention to detail is Incredible! It took him a month, from the time we decided on the song. We started talking about it in April, and on May 3rd the song was ready. My attention span is about 20 minutes, on a good day. Anytime he wants a song from now on, I'm Ready! Thanks again Pat, You Da Man! cool

Pat and Tommy,

You did a marvellous job! crazy
We have to say we looooove the video, specially the ending (your idea Pat?).
If possible, your Muvizu skills are still improving laugh
Tommy.. the live effects (applause) are very well timed and sound very realistic.

Great work!
