The Monkey and Dog Show #2

The second episode of Monkey and Dog. Now stuff gets good!
In one day, I made the first episode of both M&D and Green Arrow with no intent to ever do them again. But, boredom set in again. The second episode is such a jump from the first it amazes me. For instance, editing! We also have camera angles and movement! Wow!
Monkey comes across pretty harsh in this one, but we also get to see more of his patience. He does try his best not to explode, but Dog always gets the better of him. There's a very ugly zoom at the moment of breakdown and I wish I did it better.
This is still the very humble, yet persistent Dog. His voice is very subdued and lacks the confidence that comes in later episode. However, this is where we get to see Dog trail off in thought, something he does in almost every other appearance.
I love the dialog in this one. Dog's request and wanting to understand where Monkey is coming from is really funny to me. The truth is, though, I never knew where these videos were going. I just started with the idea that Dog wanted to watch t.v. and Monkey wanted to be left alone. But I didn't know how they would end. The dialog is all improve and it has to be a very fast back in forth, because I need to get to both characters. There's a real problem with that, but one fun thing about it is I never knew what was going to happen. When Dog fell, it was just something I had him do. You can hear me laughing as he struggles on the floor. This is also one of the many appearances of my foot moving something.
You may also notice a stack of comics on the coffee table. I was playing "X-Men Legends II" and I was reading the Age of Apocalypse comics along side it. So that's that.
I would be a year until I made another episode of M&D and I wish I had kept going because I think there would have been more. The year also changes the characters a bit, as will be seen in later episodes. But, this is still one of my favorites!
