All effects done with Adobe After Effects.

Yes, they are very short, it's because it is very time consuming to animate each frame Really confused

First one is longer, so it's better since I don't have to watch it twice to see what's happening. You should extend it some more and create a nice light show eventually.

Well that's how long the videos are actually. What I need to do, is get a better camera, because I'm taking footage with a digital camera. I need to buy a digital video camera.

Wh-What? I blinked and it was over. Ah, replay. Hey, that's pretty nice!

Yeah, they are way too short. But, it's a very time consuming thing. It took me an hour to animate the first one.

Very nice.

A friend of mine mae some short films like this, and he used Adobe Premiere -- it aparently allowed him to nearly automate this effects over an arbitrary number of frames.

It also costs one's firstborn child.

I wonder if this would do very well in the Art Corner?

Heh heh. These are pretty amusing.

Although, when I think about getting hit by lightning, I imagine myself exploding from the sheer heat of the electricity instead of being shoved down by its force.

Heh, good point, but! I'm not that good yet. Raspberry!
