This was super good, I can't imagine how long it took to make

never felt more emotional towards anything in my entire life

1:00
Comical: alright I created you, now draw.
Foil man (in a deep raspy voice) “looks like I just *foiled* your plans…”

1:27 imagine tripping over a roll of yourself. 😂

I really love this part 0:33 where the foil man was immediately formed by simply crumpling a piece of foil.

First time I've chuckled away like a kid, which took me back to the days of the original Morph from the Take Hart series I watched in the late 70s. This is equally as genius, as comedic, dramatic and utterly loveable. I'd equally wait months to see your next instalment 💜

This was really cute! Thank you for ALL the work you put into this. Hope to see more!

[burkle]

I just gotta say, this is truly amazing. I love how you were able to make such a lifelike and incredible stopmotion! I really want to see some more of this! It's awesome.

I would watch this as a series. I'd even pay for it if it were on DVD. Seriously, this had me laughing and glued to the screen. I'm off to see what else you have. Thank you

I saw the thumbnail and the foil and knew it would be a stop-motion animation clip before I clicked on it. So I clicked on it. Holy crap! That was well done! The emotion you brought out of a piece of foil was mesmerizing!
Lots of stop-motion photography is clay models and that’s a lot more easy to manipulate than crumpled foil. Facial expressions and emotions are much easier in clay models. Yet, your foil character I cared more for. I could feel his frustration, his anger, his fear, his sadness, that he was just foil.
Then his fright, then his valor. I’ll be honest, I was worried about him.
That must have taken you forever to do. Re-watching after lots of breaks during normal life, you held the storyline together. That’s just amazing!
Read a few comments here from idiots who don’t understand what kind of time this must have taken you. Said they’d subscribe like you’d put something out like this every week. Yeah right.
I played around with stop-motion in the 70’s as a kid when all cartoons were done that way, and it was just a flip book of Polaroid pictures that lasted 30 seconds. Took me months to do, I had to eat and sleep between pictures. It was just a guy made of clay on a clay motorcycle jumping over a bunch of cars, landing and crashing on the landing ramp. “Editing” meant I’d just throw out lots of pictures where the motion wasn’t convincing. Try again. In the end, all I had was a flip book that was cooler than my friends would ever try to do and I passed creative art class just barely.
I’m sure the technology now makes it easier but I know you must have spent loads of time doing this when people around you thought it a waste of time. It wasn’t at all. What you did here with foil brought tears to my eyes. I’m sure I’m not the only one either.
A masterpiece of stop-motion I’d never try to take on.
So very well done! Thank you so much for this!

We watched this earlier today in my art class and I swear the entire class was on the brink of exploding because of how many laughs they had to hold in

Foil Man Review ~ *Name*

Firstly, what makes this such a good clip is that you can make it whatever you want as there is no talking/speech so your imagination is the key to what the characters could be thinking.

Also having no speech makes it hard to get the story across but the writer has made the story so well that every action made in the story can be understood by the viewer.

By adding thought cloud bubbles, short anecodotes are made to allow the viewer to understand more deeply about what the characters are thinking about.

I love the action near the end of the clip where the short foil man has a giant foil man to destroy the original foil man in his jelousness of his bigger height and being the first one to be made.

The music adds to the tension of the story and allows the viewer to be more interested in what they are watching and to not get bored.

I really enjoyed watching this video and hope that there are more to come.

Well done. Identifiable characters, evolving theme, surprises plot twists. Loved it.

I watched this with my little brother while we were waiting for his turn on the hospital, he forgot about his pain and we kept laughing 🥹🤍
Ty for making this

[MandoThingz]

This animation is truly amazing! You deserve a lot more subscribers

I love stop motion animation and this is award winning. Well done!!!

[meowsworld]

I loved the part where he was thinking of a plan and then danced. I kept replaying it wow it is so good :D
And the part where the whole entire mug fell to the ground (the sound effect) 😆

This is excellent. I loved the humorous subtle body gestures. Thanks for sharing your work.
