Is SynchroVox the worst Yas Forums-related technology ever created?

I think it's neat that it exists as an experimental form of animation, but I'm glad it didn't catch on.
Jacob Lewis
yes. since it technically spawned THIS
Colton Thompson
Every still and gif of clutch cargo is pure nightmare fuel.
Chase Anderson
No, 3dcg is
Chase Perez

Maybe in isolation. But the actual show is one of the dullest things in existence.
Oliver Evans
This. Fuck 3D CGI.
Angel Flores
My first exposure to this style of animation was in "Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers" and it unnerved me as a kid. Still does.
Asher Murphy
Can you post an example of the worst 3dcg has to offer?
Blake Allen
at least Conan O'Brien got some good fake celebrity satellite interviews out of it
Zachary Long
I feel it was just a few decades ahead of it's time. You can propoably make it work pretty well today with some fancy AI shenanigans
Owen Williams
I'm at work, so no. But I dislike 3D CGI regardless of its quality. I consider it anti-cartoons, fake movies of sorts. A lower form of entertainment.
Elijah Anderson
flash puppets are pretty bad
Lucas Howard
Ok boomer
Liam Cruz
Probably. I fail to see the point. They still could’ve done very limited animation and drawn like 8 mouth shapes. Hell, they could’ve pulled off 3 mouth shapes if anime is to be believed.
Jose Reed
Jace Reyes
>that incredibles dvd short with the Mr Incredible cartoon that had the exact same style and tone, with Mr Incredible providing commentary
David Collins
''What would that new process be, Mr. I? Cheaporama?!''
Blake Ross
did boomers have any legitimately good cartoons on tv growing up?
between this shit and the flood of cheap hanna-barbera shit it's a wonder any of them grew up wanting to get into animation
Jaxon Jones
WB shorts were still good in the 50s. The 60s and 70s were mostly awful. Bullwinkle and The Pink Panther were all right.
Ian Lopez
did WB shorts come on TV in the 50s and 60s?
Liam White
I'm honestly surprised Clutch Cargo isn't referenced in Venture Brothers at all. It feels like the perfect side character of an adventurer that has a creepy mouth, and he just lives in their world as this low animated character with the live action mouth.
Dominic Harris
They could make a little gag short that is about a failed 50s/60s SynchroVox cartoon centered round Jonas Venture Sr. and Team Venture.
Unrelated but after watching a Jonny Quest doc, could/would Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer actually make a Jonny Quest reboot, or a similar animated adventure program that is completely serious in tone?
Christian Hernandez
I was just about to make a thread on this. How the fuck could this possibly be any cheaper to do, in the analog age no less, than making like 3 or 4 different frames of lip flaps to cycle through?
Isaac Miller
The sad part is that it would've worked if it stayed in comic book format. The whole premise was ruined by the very thing it was trying to advertise. It sucks.
Ethan Cox
What if it's like Classic Who where a bunch of episodes are missing, but Billy realizes there's another mystery code about ORB on it. Namely, how to fix it.
Lincoln Morales
>watching a Jonny Quest doc
where?
Brayden Rodriguez
50s was still theater-only, but The Bugs Bunny Show started in 1960.
Easton Gray
Lucas Smith
thanks breh
Nathaniel Williams
He's a Croatian Pedophile
William Powell
>Why am I white?
Andrew Evans
no
Wyatt Scott
new Yas Forums waifu material
Jacob Morgan
Bet it's a boner killer in motion.
Luke Stewart
The Orb is not coming back, man. Let it go. It was a maguffin.
Hudson Brooks
well to be fair the episode is terrifying
those lips were the least scary thing in the episode
Adrian Parker
>Paddy the Pelican
Oliver Cooper
you aren't helping your point
Isaac Lewis
Probably.
I know that I hate it more than anything.
Jonathan Gray
hell it'd be more relevant today with the lack of quality standards of most calarts style cartoons and modern digital cameras
don't draw the mouths of the characters, just film the voice actors with a phone and stick it on the tape.
Eli Myers
It's absolute shit, the nadar of animation and whoever invented it is probably burning in hell.
Landon Thompson
it's certainly up there, yeah.
Kevin Evans
Jeremiah Russell
child, please!
Eli Harris
The original Jonny Quest.
Easton Martinez
This is still hilarious.
John Bennett
Clutch Cargo was very ingenuitive. Not practical, but they did do a bunch of things to get out of drawing things, like building an actual miniature windmill.
Jack Allen
Nicholas Thomas
>they made me a white guy!
>maybe the print is faded, you're tan?
oh god I'm dying.
Nicholas Richardson
That short obliterated my sides
Jayden Collins
Did this even catch on? I feel like even back then people saw it and went LOLNO. Flash has done WAY more damage.
Juan Morris
There's a lot of great stuff made with Flash that wouldn't have been possible otherwise. Synchro-Vox has literally no merits.
Juan Johnson
People keep bringing up Clutch Cargo, but Space Angel is my guilty pleasure.
Both are cheap as fuck but I like them for that vintage scifi and pulpy comic feel. Both shows would literally be better off with just being slideshows.
Josiah Evans
So was this before they understood that they could just swap out cels with different head and mouth shapes? Was it a technical limitation or did they just not come up with it?
Did this really save enough time to be worth how awful it looked?
Samuel Long
Splicing mouth footage with one static cel is much faster than swapping mouth shapes frame-by-frame.
Noah Allen
Also, lip-sync is a tedious pain in the ass.
Christian Williams
You don't need lip sync if you animate at 4fps
Christopher Campbell
i think theyre both from the same production team
Ethan Flores
Name 35
Colton Evans
not bad
Hudson Moore
Yes
Bet 60s kids had nightmares with this shit
Ryder Gonzalez
she sounds too much like the little boy in clutch cargo
