I made this 2 minute claymation in high-school. It was a lot of fun, but a lot of work because I didn't have the help of an automated editor. I apologize for the low quality of the video. There is a lot of generation loss. .MPG format (29.2 MB) This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 License. Characters There are 4 main characters: Pierre, a lengthy Frenchman with a beret. Cousin Doodad, a slimy relative of Cousin It. Where ever he goes, he leaves a yellow trail of slime. Serak the Preparer, a six-legged, one eyed alien. Frank Furter, a segmented snake who likes to feast on slimy things. Story Line The story is very simplistic because I just wanted to do something fun and short. Basically, the story picks up with Frank trying to eat Doodad. Frank and Serak see this and stick up for Doodad. A fight ensues. One of Serak's tentacles gets bitten off. And we find out that Frank can actually throw some of his segments around. Serak deals a powerful karate kick. In the end, Frank has had enough of a beating and decides it is better to have friends, than to eat them. All four walk off into the sunset.
