All I do all day is make cartoons in various programs. Comedic animations, parodies of movies and video games. EGO FI.

Half Beard: The Shaving

Posted by Bobert-Rob - November 6th, 2007

Some of you may recall the animation I released last month entitled "Half Beard". If you haven't seen it, check it out. Anyway, I did a live action documentary on the final day of my real half beard entitled "Half Beard: the Shaving" and released it on Youtube. You can watch it here:
Half Beard: the Shaving
It's not great by any means, but it's got its moments. If you like rambling then you'll probably enjoy it.

As for episode 5, I've gotten the first 30 seconds animated, but I don't have dialogue recorded for Johny or his friend, so until I get that done, I can't do anything with it. I'm working on other things until that happens. Here's a work in progress shot of it. It's Vaan, in all his un-glory. Damnit I hate him.

Also, I might as well throw it out there, I'm planning on the title being 'Not-so-Final Fantasy XII'. Not too terribly original, but eh. I thought it was clever, but then I did a google search and the name's been used in a few things (the 'not so final fantasy' part), but I could still use it... maybe. What do you guys think? The other title I was considering was "FFXII: Enough parts to make a clock.". It's more original, but more obscure. Which should I go with? Lemme know.

the insanity is awesome.

something i might aspire too if i could ever grow a beard!
i mindlessly shave mine everyday =(

Bobert-Rob

Gotta start somewhere. Might as well be with a blade. A blade... with which, to shave peach fuzz that will one day be hair! Stubbly stubbles.

"Stop acting like you care you son of a bitch, you fucking fake sympathy, All you fucking care about is runescape" - now that made me laugh! xD

also for a name for the FFXII cartoon, the idea of having an origional name for a parody that unoriginal (not putting you down, but FF parody's are like... VERY common) so using the name "not so final" is pretty justified to be honest.

looking forward to the cartoons! half beard rocked xD

Bobert-Rob (Updated )

Yeah, I drop f-bombs like every 5 seconds in real life, it's awesome. Not good when kids are around, of course... heh. And yeah, FF parodies are a dime a dozen, but I've yet to see a FFXII parody and each game is pretty different (more or less), so I consider it uncovered territory. I mean, shit, it's only a year old, lots to pick at there.

Dekathos

Your dog's reaction could not possibly be timed better. His sympathy and deep emotion is captured perfectly with each and every yawn! ;)

neon8100

Loved that video well done.. i actually like final fantasy 12, Looking forward to this animation though... Just be careful. No that wasn't a death threat... or was it?? NO seriously it wasn't... i think....

Bobert-Rob

lol, hey, I like it too. It isn't perfect by any means, but enjoyable. I'm sure you'll get a kick out of it, worry not!

Pandora-Productions

aye thats true, make sure to include
"hey its like an online RPG where are all the other people?"

OH! and take the piss out of the rabbit womans sideburns <3

Bobert-Rob

Heh, yeah. It doesn't include many jokes like that oddly enough, but it contains a lot of story-parodying parts. It's a heavily Vaan-bashing script. As you can tell, he's easily the worst character in the game as far as I'm concerned. If I included every joke I ever made while playing the game, it'd easily be a few hours long. Every time I play games, I'll sit there and make jokes as I play, usually to myself. It's good fun. I wish I had time to cover every aspect of the game, but alas, I'd NEVER be done making it if I did. I'll do my best to include as much as I can, though!

andythehedgehog

cant wait for 5 or any more of your 10 scripts you said you have in half beard.

Bobert-Rob

Oh yes, there's billions. Almost. Enough to keep me busy for a good long while.

andythehedgehog

i watched the shaving thing and you guys look just like you do in the flashes. if i ever grow a thck beard im only shaving half of it, too. yay, you're already corrupting americas youth!

Bobert-Rob

lol, hell yes I am. Although, would you consider Half Beard a corruption? If nothing else, I'm saving our youth from a fraction-beard-less world! ..or something.

Infernalz

Well I just commented on the YT video, no need to put that entire, thought out, great, worthy of a nomination, review back on here. ;)

And great to see that Ep. 5 is coming along! I can wait though... Maybe... Give it a couple on months and I'll be begging you to put it out, what least what you have done.
As for a title... I don't know... I mean the titles you have seem good... Huh... how about....

Flash, The Final Fantasy *XII* (lol, play off of space, the final frontier :D and the *XII* part I don't know it it would fit so I starred it :\)

Final Fantasy... What Are They On Now XII? (ya probably too long...)

Fantasy, The Final XII (wait what?)

FFXII, An Abbrev. of a Legacy. (Well... Ya, I'm stumped on that too... Legacy, Legend, what ever fits :\)

FFXII, I Swear I've Seen This Before... ( Yep, way too many of them)

Well I just thought of things that would go with the title it self... It would be easier if we could see some of the flash it self to get some more ideas. *wink*wink*

Ha! Finally, a comment thats not way too long! :P

Bobert-Rob

Oh no, that's not long at all, heh. Yeah, I dunno, I'll probably stick with "Not-so-final fantasy XII", it sticks. I still want to put the clocks joke in there somewhere, but who knows. And I dunno about a preview unless it's not done by early next year. If it's feb and it ain't more than half way done, I'll consider putting a teaser out there. Consider it.

Infernalz

I knew I forgot something...

Congrats on top 20 of October! Half Beard is a huge hit :D It would of been higher if it wasn't for all those dang Halloween movies :| Next time you'll win top 5 for sure!

Bobert-Rob

Heh, something like that. Surprised it made it on there at all, a lot of quality submissions. How much you wanna bet Waterlollies makes it to number 1 submission of November? That one's not even a matter of chance, it's gonna happen. Damn Mr. Phillips and his bar raising ability. Heh. :D

deal-with-it

Well, everything by you has been funny so far, so I don't care if you made a mario parody, if it's funny, it's worth a high score.

Bobert-Rob (Updated )

I like it when I read your message and then your name right after, so it's like your name is part of the message. Is that the purpose of it? Heh. But anyway, yeah, humor is always important. Always. Although I'm never... NEVER... doing a mario parody. God no. That's the LAST thing the internet needs, another clone.

SaintStudios

Nice work on Half-Beard, and the Siblings series in general. Seeing a whole series with almost entirely fbf is rare. Anyway, here's some title ideas:

'Final Fantasy XII - Just Let This Die Now.'

'Sibling Fantasy XII'

'Yet Another Final Fantasy'

Tell me what ya think!

Bobert-Rob

Hm, perhaps. I'm probably going to stick with the not-so one, it seems no one cares that it's been used before (not as a flash title, but as a title of an article somewhere). Yours aren't bad, though.

Demonator911

I...NEED....JOHNY'S....RUNESCAPE USER!!!! (typing in caps will possibly inspire you to tell me) Remember that response to that one review? I can't remember what flash it was, but it made me laugh how you responded to it. The not-so is the best one in my opinion. I personally disliked FFXII very much. It got rid of the turn-based system, which was the highlight of all the previous FF's. My favorites Final Fantasies are 7,8,and 9. And, I just have to ask, what is your most current game console at the moment? All I have is a GC and PS2 T_T

Bobert-Rob

Yeah, I'm still in the last gen boat myself. I've got a GC, a PS2 and a broken XBOX (which is broken so I don't count it usually). Lack of money or caring has kept me from buying any current gen stuff. Hell, I didn't even get a GC until a few years after it was released and the only reason I got an XBOX was for Ninja Gaiden. I'm not one to buy a system until it actually has shit I want on it. And about Johny's runescape shit.. well read the response I made on Youtube, I don't feel like typing it twice. Later.

Demonator911

Did ya get my PM? I sent it with my Runescape name...

Bobert-Rob

Yup.

deal-with-it

And I'm surprised so many people want your brothers RS name, why not your FFXII name? (sorry if I just got you another million PM's. :P)

Bobert-Rob

lol, well, FFXII isn't an online game. That and you can't rename characters on it. The gameplay of it is actually really similar to the gameplay of online MMORPG's, except it isn't online and it's only one player. The one you're thinking of is FFXI, that's the online one. And it's the one I refuse to touch since, of course, it's a MMORPG. I'd rather not waste time and money playing the game, regardless of how good it might be. I'll stick to the 'pay for it once and ONLY ONCE' mentality, screw monthly membership fees.

Psycedelic

HALF BEARD! xD

Bobert-Rob

BEARD HALF! Dx

Fiercehart

'Not-so-Final Fantasy XII'
...
who better to trust then someone whom shares your name? wheeee :D

and i swear to god u better not be in kahoots with the muffin man. that dickhole killed my father. which oddly enough was my gramdma. im high on life, get off my case >:U

Bobert-Rob

But... but... HE MAKES MUFFINS. I don't even know what a kahoot is, but I'll be damned if I'm going to share one with anyone else. MY KAHOOT.

leob123

uh wont the other half grow because its stronger counterpart has been elimanated hell i bet it will go all chuck norris on you if you even raise a razor to it

Bobert-Rob

I don't know if I quite understand what you're saying, but sure, why not. I think of it in more of a sense that the beard's been halved. So I guess that'd mean he lost strength or something, but who knows.

jackyboi

Hmm FF not my thing really its a tard x]
but really i will watch it and find out about the "complex" humour inlvoved <_<

Bobert-Rob

It should still be good, regardless. We'll see once I finish it, though. And it won't really be complex humo(u)r, just more specific to the game than usual since I've actually played it first hand and thus know of more things from it to parodize.

leob123

i hope its not as gay as the game of it

Bobert-Rob

I plan to mock the gayness, but we'll see how well I do. Vaan is definitely going to be burned, that's for sure. Tssss.
