Stickman (So I Was Walking…)
February 1st, 2009. Categories: Student Art.Spring 2007
Stickman, or So I Was Walking…, was the final project in my animation course. I’m a huge fan of Randall Munroe’s xkcd, and wanted to pay homage to a webcomic that has become so influential in such a short time, so this animation is heavily inspired by the themes of the comic.
Xkcd comic #150 and the recurring character of the girl with black hair, in particular, are what I drew upon in the creation of this animation.
I emailed Munroe a link to the video shortly after finishing it, but unfortunately didn’t get a response. On the bright side, since I mentioned xkcd in the video’s comments, it’s the most watched of my videos on YouTube.
