Hello all!

Been a bit since I posted ont he forum but I thought this was funny.

This is an Obama character I made and was testing lipsynch with one of the sound samples, just thought it was funny to hear Obama with Bush voice.

Hello again.

In previous private message I was also asked if I used the Barrack Obama that is sold at cartoon solutions as rotoscope.

No I did not, though I found the link and I must admit they are somewhat similar, here is a link to the product from cartoon solutions.

Well, I made this only as a test with a sample wav file and put it online for the fun of it, but since it seems I hit a sensitive spot on some members political earth I decided to remove the video and will go back to hidding from the forum.

Thanks for the replies.

Ok, actually my love for obama is not too big

, but I want to see the animation. I just can't see the link yet... there is even no link now! If you are not plagiarising the cartoon solutions' obama, there is nothing to worry about. Please, put that link back. Come on, there must be millions of obama cartoons on internet and the 50% must be very similar each other, it's ok, they are cartoons of the same person.
Ok, I haven't seen it, I must to shut my mouth until see it, but there is a huge probability they be similar just because they are two obamas made on AS. Please, don't take this as a offense to cartoon solutions or to yourself, I respect both, just want to see the link

Hey I didn't say anything!.... Even though I haven't seen this video, I think Obama has a sense of humor. Well I hope he has.

He seem to have a great sense of humour, it even seems he played a small part in that satire from JibJab.

GCharb,

Please put the link back up. No need to worry about it. I am also an overly exuberant fan of Obama

and found nothing offensive about the animation. I knew it was just a "test" and nothing was implied by it towards Obama.

If you wanted to avoid confusion you could find some clip of actual Obama dialog somewhere but just as a "test" with the character it isn't really bothersome. As a matter of fact I found the "juxtaposition" and "contrast" quite humorous.

p.s. I've often wondered if GWB was thinking of that "Who" song when he mangled that quote.
