The Magnificence of Rudolf O. Plucket - Part II

My second attempt at telling a fiction as a multiple part, limited animation video. This is Part 2 of a four episode series.

Keep in mind, this is only an experiment...

The Magnificence of Rudolf O. Plucket - Part 1

Here's something quite new...

This is my first experiment at telling a fiction as a multiple-part, limited animation video.

This is part one. Parts two through four will follow.

Maybe not as close to the bone as my confessional pieces, but I’m learning a lot by doing them.

See what you think.

Once again, I've been stupid. And done an animation about it.

Like it says, I've been stupid and done a video about it.

The good news is that this is an interesting experiment, combining animation with live video.

Ode To Consumption

Just a little protest written when I was temporarily overwhelmed by the sheer ferocity of holiday shopping. Plus a few terrors about whether or not our society can survive in its present form.

But, don’t worry, I promise, in a week or so I’ll be back to normal and salivating over sports cars like a normal person.

On why the universe doesn't give a d*mn about your morality...

Like it says...

The Very Young Therapist

On why you should never play the martyr card...

Acid, Base...Shame

Another of my animations. This one deals with shame...my own shame, to be precise...but also that of others'

And how really useless, self-destructive, and dangerous it is.

Note to readers...and viewers

Wonder if I will do any more explosive-cargo writings as opposed to videos. No idea. The videos just seem to be more interesting at the moment. Though, truthfully, they don’t get much viewership.

Also, I am tempted to abandon the videos of myself. They worked, sometimes, but at others they just seemed repetitive and boring. And my technique is crude. As my son David put it, quite respectfully, “We need to work on your lighting.” Meaning, at the moment, with the camera I’ve got and the light and shade of things in my office, I look a bit like a cast member of the Walking Dead. And we’re not talking the folks that are still alive.

So I’m focusing on the animation. I suppose that’s pretty crude, too. I’m no cartoonist or professional animator. But, still, my little moving pictures are a hell of a lot more interesting than moi…even if I were (to quote Bloom County)a great Robert Redfort-esque male beauty.

Perversions...

this week's confession. A particularly embarrassing one.

But...

Confession...and Demons

Hey, All,

I'm working with some graphics and animation software. See what you think of this.

Padre and Ashes

A note about South Padre Island...and human remains

Cables

More angst and craziness about getting to South Padre Island...

Boxes. Ashes.

On the road to South Padre Island...with the ashes of my parents.

Thinking about 9-11

A break from my parents to consider 9-11

To South Padre Island, and farewell to my parents

We've back from a trip to South Padre Island and Brownsville, TX, where we visited my son and daughter-in-law. It was a wonderful trip, but also sad, in that we spread the ashes of my parents on a beach they loved.

A little literary revenge

Like it says, a little literary revenge...

Maybe not warranted, but fun just the same.

Fun in politics...not such a good idea

Just a little video meditation on why having fun in politics may not be such a good idea...

Wedding: 1

Something different. A meditation on the June wedding of my son and new daughter-in-law.

T.J. Tucker, a failed obiturary

My father's obituary ran on Friday, 7 August, 2015. I did this video about why I felt I failed him. At least as a writer.
