A little about "Quinn Redshift": I've been working on this project for close to five years; I'm a lone animator doing everything myself. Perhaps Pixar could bash this out in a few months, but I'm working on home on obsolete computers and software that's nine years out-of-date because it's all I can afford.
I was raised when the Star Wars saga was new, and I've always wanted to do something similar...and by "do something similar", I mean actually have a space adventure...but since that seems unlikely, my next-best-thing was to make one of my own. Thus, "Quinn Redshift" was born.
I knew I wanted to make something in the big-chinned-hero vein in order to keep with the pulp style; John Carter, Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, Spaceman Spiff, and Buzz Lightyear were all influences and inspiration.
"Quinn Redshift" is also a love-letter to my childhood. As a kid, Hollywood's assumption that cartoons are solely for children (just as Japan about that!) and thus must contain slapstick humor, musical numbers, and a life lesson about believing in yourself...and I hated it. It felt very condescending; I wanted something I could really sink my my teeth into!
And thus I wrote a script that I felt was ageless, could be enjoyed by anybody and not just kids...and as a kid, I would have loved "Quinn Redshift". I love it as an adult, too, and wish more cartoons were made with that goal in mind.
I hope this trailer leaves people wanting to see more...

...I'm getting my own axe and joining a league.

it. The character is my inner voice, the scenery a blank canvas.
In this particular case, I got to wondering about jaywalking laws and their limits. Also, rocket boots.
Can they arrest you for flying over the street?

So how is such a thing animated? The answer may surprise you. Or bore you to heck. Or both.
Or all three.

Lighting is one of the most important and most overlooked aspects of filmmaking; it can show the time of day, it can set a mood, it can make characters more distinct from the background...lighting does a lot.
And when you screw it up, it affects a lot, too.
This video only shows a little bit of the troubles I've faced while lighting "Quinn Redshift".

This is what it takes absolutely every time a character speaks. And the script is 44 pages long.
So, you know, it's a liiiiiittle bit of work. Heh.

A big problem is that you actually almost never see an explosion dissipate in a cartoon. Y'ever notice that? They usually cut away before it finishes... so I more or less had to make up how it looks (with a little help from some reference footage I finally managed to find)...
Took me THREE FRICKIN' DAYS to get this right; there was a lot of fiddling with materials/mapping, timing, and little persnickety ways 3DS MAX can be a pain in the butt... however, I think I got it right in the end.

The Cleopatra hair was especially a challenge as it had a tendency to pop inside the character's ear and get stuck.
The 80s side-ponytail tended to pop inside the scrunchie, as well.
Learning how to do these things has really helped me grow as an animator.
Also, hawt chicks.
The effect is done using 3DS MAX's Cloth modifier; it has photo-real hair built in as an effect, but it doesn't work well with the toon-shaded style.

ATTENTION YOUTUBE REVIEWERS: This video is animated, but that doesn't make it for kids. If you think animation is for kids, go watch 'Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend" or "Watership Down" and see if you still believe that.
I thought people might be interested to see what goes into building an animation...just so's ya knows why this is taking a while. Heh.
If you make it through all two-plus hours, lemme know; I'm curious who is that dedicated. :)

ATTENTION YOUTUBE REVIEWERS: This video is about animation, but that doesn't make it for kids; if
you think animation is solely for kids, go watch "Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend" and tell me that's for kids. Or "Watership Down".
So, yeah, I probably didn't check your box saying this video is intended for the wee little kiddies, and I feel fully justified in that decision.
Just...you know...sayin'.
It's not meant to be impressive: the sound effects are crap, it's not even particularly good animation. 100% of the point was to see whether the look of the zapper bolts worked.
The idea was to look kind of like they have distorted light; there are three slightly offset cylinders that taper and converge at the ends (giving the blast an almost diamond shape). One is red, one is green, and one is blue, and all are set to an additive filter; that's why, when they overlap, they look white.
The bolt is also rotating so that the RGB distortions are not always in the same place relative to each other and which hopefully helps the distorted look.
Yes, there is a chance I've over-thought this, but that's fine.
In this episode, we discuss a little bit of history, and how the world has changed since.
And beards. Lots of beards.

This is where the channel is headed, this is how it'll be doing it. Animation is the future of this channel, as it should have always been, really.
Into the abyss...hopefully I'll come out with treasure and stories to tell, 'eh?

If I've left someone out, sorry; doing my best. This'll do for a start, neh?
There hasn't been a new argument from a christian in ages, and so when I see a video allegedly giving advice to those who would witness to us, the unwashed atheist hordes, and I see that it's the same old nonsense that won't ever land with an atheist, well...I feel the need to respond.
If they're going to insist on polluting our air with their nonsense, at least it could be LESS nonsensical, less irrelevant, less of a time waste.
That's why I respond to people like this, telling them how they could convert us...because they almost certainly won't, but at least they won't be phoning it in anymore.

Because she's drunk the Kool-Aid of christianity, which talks a lot of life...and gets nearly everything wrong. Proudly, loudly, and deliberately wrong.
I mean, let's face it: science ain't sexy. Science is a lot of poorly-dressed people looking at chalk boards and test tubes. The universe is a very mundane place compared to our fertile imaginations.
If you weren't a kid in the 80s, you missed out; there was so much magic out there in terms of games and movies and TV. It was a much more care-free time when it came to fiction than today; Hollywood was in this Goldilocks Zone where FX were started to be good enough to be believed, but they hadn't quite realized they could use them in place of good writing yet...and we, as kids, absorbed a LOT of it. And I can't speak for others, but for me, it made me wish with all my heart for a world that is so much cooler than the real one. It's why I animate and play games: those are socially-acceptable ways for adults to play Make-Believe.
...well, that, and religion.
Cuz religions paint pictures of a world that's magical and amazing, with miracles and magic and an all-powerful guardian figure...if you didn't know that was religion, it might sound like a killer comic book, knowhutImean?
So, when faced with a real world that's stinky and slimy and gross and requires a lot of schooling to understand, it's easy to understand people preferring a much simpler, more satisfying version of reality.
Real or not. To our own detriment or not.
And I'm thinkin'...that's gotta stop.

I mean, seriously, now.
If you talk to theists, you hear a lot of claims, behaviors, and expectations for the faithful, and when you're not one, they sound bizarre.
You also hear a lot about atheists that simply aren't true, but which are nevertheless perpetuated among many theists.
These questions are indeed requests for information. Some are thought experiments in the form of Socratic-Method-esque questions intended to get believers to challenge their assumptions. I'm not holding my breath to see it actually work...but it's worth a try.

The more I listen to theists talk, the more I see how sloppy their language is when they talk about these things; be it scientific illiteracy or deliberate weasel-words, believers seem to become adept at linguistic yoga when they describe things like "beginning to exist".
And, unfortunately, a lot of atheists play right along.
It doesn't help that English is a very sloppy language, with so many words with multiple and even contradictory definitions--do not EVEN get me started on 'literally'--which only makes it easier to strawman the heck out of an argument.
So frustrating.
This video focuses as much on how we express ourselves as it does debunking; both are important.

And he's a DETERMINED little kitty; he'll slurp at my toes and heels late at night when I'm trying to fall asleep, and in the morning when I'm not ready to get up. Kitty tongues are covered in small barbs, like velcro; I challenge YOU to try to sleep while you're being tongue-tickled by a kitty!
And he will NOT be deterred; I can wrap up my feet in blankets and he will try to burrow through them to get at my feety bits.
I don't know why he's doing it. I don't even know whether it's bad for him.
I do know that it's kind of funny, and that's why I'm sharing it with all of you.
I also know that my floor is a mess; don't mention it, cuz I don't need to be told.

Rather than debunk the logic of it--yet again--I want to deal with some of the less savory parts of the argument, the skeezy, skeevy, dishonest, and, yes, even abusive conclusions that come with Pascal's Wager.
Those are not as often dealt with as the more, hrm, let's say 'cold-blooded' parts of the Wager; let's rip off that mask and show the icky underbelly of the argument, the parts that pretty much nobody would accept from another human (but which are somehow eight flavors of hunky-dory when a god does 'em).
Cuz, honestly, if you're as sick of Pascal's Wager as I am, there needs to be SOMEthing new to talk about, some new way of addressing the topic. Right?
...right?

And if I'm wrong...that poor, poor man. Even other creationists are probably laughing at him.
I've tried to be respectful, even as I debunk his claims, but it's difficult, really difficult...and he certainly doesn't return the courtesy. And I probably shan't be responding to him again unless something changes.
Regardless...video. I hope you dig it, and thanks for watching.

No, it's the complete lack of understanding of randomness and this insistence upon shoehorning god into situations that are clearly 100% secular that I found objectionable, and which I felt demanded a reply.
Randomness is not quite the same as unpredictability, especially when it's the use of our own inadequate faculties by which we're judging whether something is "predictable".
And just because something is bigger than us doesn't make it a god or worthy of submission.
I mean, if that's what turns your crank, you do you...just leave me out of it, yanno?
But he did name his video, "Calling All Atheists", so...here I am.

Disagreement is not hate speech! Even a bit of jovial ribbing isn't hate speech. And calling out the hate speech of others is not, itself, hate speech.
So quit acting like it is!
Oh, if we accept his definition, he's correct...but we don't, do we?
Yet he would never hear clarifications, I'm sure; his attitude seems to be that he gets to assign to us our opinions simply because he does not agree with our vocabulary.
And, you know, that's just plain obnoxious. We get to define ourselves, and when there is no language to truly describe us, we must either make up new words or redefine old ones.
Atheists have obviously opted for the latter; the old definition was clearly written by believers, anyway, for obvious reasons: to make their own lives easier...facts be damned.

ATTENTION YOUTUBE REVIEWERS: Not only does this conform to Community Standards, but I don't think I even drop one F-bomb. (Actually, I might say 'shit' once, but that was when a soda exploded on me; you can't really fault me for that!)
Still, it's all in good fun, and I think that's obvious, so cut me some slack, yeah?
And yet, words are meant to describe, and do not dictate what is or is not so; even if some will insist upon a certain definition, that only means other words will need to be found for some to accurately describe themselves.
The video to which I'm responding is a blatant attempt to force people to defend positions they don't hold merely because of the word they use to describe themselves...and then he claims it's unfair that we don't argue the way he wants us to argue for a belief we do not hold.
Hypocrisy or irony; either way, he's wrong.

Truthfully, there seems to be none at all, except for that which we make.
But our new buddy, "Deflate", has some other ideas on the matter, ideas which seem rather important to him...but which he doesn't seem quite able to articulate or define.
I explain the myriad problems with his arguments, and possibly have invented a new logical fallacy. (Not sure.)

He tries to gaslight everybody into thinking that the skeptic is the one claiming that god is omnipotent, and are only refuting their own argument with their objections. It doesn't work.
Oh, it MIGHT work in person, if someone has to think on their feet and respond to what's being said at lightning speed (which handily masks to utter absurdity of some of his statements), but in a setting where one can take one's time, the seams in his argument become quite apparent, his decptions laid bare for all to see.
That's where I come in.

And none of it would really be necessary if christians could just keep their religion in their pants rather than attempting to force it upon an obviously unreceptive rest of the world.
Religion should be more like a club you join rather than an army that believes it owns the world. I don't like to use the word 'fascist' very much because its meaning becomes more diluted with every use, but his worldview quite literally follows that pattern, and the description is appropriate.
BITTER PILL: Christians are not the good guys of this story; it's the people who resist its dominance over the world who are the protagonist rather than the villain that is the church.

But that's one heck of an 'if'. Cuz if god ISN'T real, then the bible is a big ol' pile of poo.
And, of course, he goes off on evolution and uses 'evidences' as a plural noun and everything else that makes him seem like a complete ignoramus.
What I can't tell is where his distorted caricature of atheism and evolution come from; does he not understand it, or is he just being snarky? I honestly can't tell. (Me, I'm just being snarky.)

But what is being demonstrated by either side? Because, upon critical and objective examination, religious people are behaving with blind faith, clearly, despite their protests to the contrary.
They provide no evidence, but insist they only have trust. Even in the face of evidence that contradicts their holy text, they maintain their belief. That's blind faith, no matter what they say.

But I think he just hates always being the one with something to defend, while others explain to him his mistakes. It won't be the first time; goodness knows that Greg Koukl advises theists on how to never be the one under the spotlight, never sitting in the hot seat...because he knows he religious positions cannot be defended under critical scrutiny.
And I think that's the deal with this guy, here. He dresses it up to sound like he just wants to know the atheist position on certain weighty matters, but I think it's his only line of defense against what is, after all, pretty devastating to his position.
But that's not how this works; I don't have to be right to know he's wrong, to point out that what he's saying doesn't fit the facts.

Let's have a little twisted fun, shall we?
I don't know any atheists who say or even give the appearance of that...but try saying so to a theist; they won't believe you.
Cuz that's not even slightly obnoxious at all.

Bigotry is about keeping others down.
Telling people to stop keeping others down is being called intolerance by those whose worldviews include certain people being inherently less valuable than others.
But refusing to permit intolerance is not, itself intolerance. It's defense, both of oneself and others.
Just share and play nicely with the other kids. That shouldn't be such a burden.

This is the problem with religions like christianity: they think they know it all...even though they can prove none of it. Theists obviously act more on feeling than fact, and while none of us are Vulcans or robots, the ability to let logic override instinct is a sign of true intelligence.

What would it mean for religion if aliens showed up? What if they had a different faith, or none at all?
In my never-humble opinion, it would have been a good idea to have an atheist on this panel, but whatchagonnado.
