one with a scythe, meet upon an infinite colorless plane.

This is my first animated short, remastered in high definition!
This is the late night brain storm between me and my buddy Sean
Branson. I had been sketching these little cloaked stick figures
in my Linear Algebra class for a semester and wanted to animate them.
But what would they do? A bottle of Vodka, and a month
later this little 1 minute 11 second thing was done. The
sound isn't that great, but I am a visual guy with a radio shack mic.
This is the directors cut I guess, it is one second longer
than the original I made in 2002. Recently I re-rendered the
scenes in a high-def wide screen format and touched up a few animation
problems. This ended up being a quick test of what a HD
workflow might be, and I pass the results to you.
If anyone out there wants to take a crack at a new soundtrack let me
know. If it sucks less than mine I'll drop it in and add your
name to the credits.
