Well, hey. Somebody should say thanks for posting this.
The style seems suitably surreal. It's like experiencing a bad dream you can't wake up from when you have a high-grade fever. The characters seem so calm, yet their message so demonic. Kind of like Ben Bernanke, himself.
Yeah, I bypassed giving it any time, because I don't need news & views communicated to me via cartoon creatures. But, I just saw it posted on 321gold.com and watched it for whatever reason.
I guess it is a method for communicating reality truths to individuals that watch the Simpsons and Family Guy regularly. I once knew a 40yr. old man that would watch shows like that. He was a dope and on dope; so a double doper.
It is actually extremely pathetic to find that biting truths and criticisms must be packaged like a baby toy and fed to full grown infants.
Sociologically, this portends some bad things rolling down our main streets in the near future.
It's 101 for grunion. Simplified so that folks can get to know Ben not Break Bernanke and the committee hosses.
Too bad their attention span won't last 7 minutes. Maybe if the female character stripped during the exchange they might hold the attention of the future lemming world order.
Don't just think of it that way. This is an example of text-to-speech and voice synthesis technology. Used well, cartoon character technology can also make a smaller file.
There may come a day in the future when you want maximum anonymity while still doing public advocacy.
This is anonymous -- just give your script to a cartoon character to read.
And the smaller file size means, instead of 4 hours of video on a DVD, you might fit 32 hours of discussion onto one DVD.
Seriously, I keep cartoon character technology in mind.... :)
John, then just go with that advertising marketing campaign for financial investing, where they've got the little baby boy in the crib doing stock trades (maybe its for E Trade, I don't know, I try not to listen to commercials).
Put a little moving mouth on a baby -- or a put it on a 2 X 4, or a freaking dish sponge like SpongeBob. What's your point? Saving bytes? I think the concept bites, to tell you the truth.
Anonymity? There's lots of way to achieve that, that are creative. Do you want hand puppets? A talking fart sound? Blackface whiteboys? Clowns...?
I'm not following you? Sadly; I may have lost my sense of humor for the time being...
