Vocaloid NENDOROID animation

submitted by jmd
1 decade 5 years 6 months 1 week ago

In short, Hatsune is the spokes-character and pre-set for a sophisticated software mouth (or vocaloid) that users can program to sing songs. Not being content with just lip synching a song, a fan has taken the weird yet strangely catchy 10th end credits (according to ANN website) from a kids anime show called Keroro Gunso and (TEXT EDITED) produced a stop motion facsimile of it using NENDOROIDs.

EDIT: Wow 3 years old and I am just finding this out. As the title of the youtube video said so, it wasn't until a couple minutes ago that I found out what a NENDOROID was. Nendroids are a super deformed doll/poseable statue of popular anime characters. They offer multiple face plates for expressions and movable extensions. I am still on the fence on if this is CG like I originally thought or stop motion which is implied from the youtube title. I have looked even closer at the video and a few things stick out from being possible with the nendorids. The hands are pegged, but not jointed, so swiveling back and forth is not supported, but could be modded in. Constant changing of faces and hands between shots and yet their feet are perfectly planted from shot to shot, their dance moves are almost exact. Lastly while the hair is a flexible silicon (pvc?) allowing for swaying, the bounce from upward motion in the the hair bow at the very end would be extremely hard to do in stop motion. Saddly no info from the creator nor a HQ version has been found.

Still cute as heck, you can find a side by side comparison of the dance at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrUOovvwc54
