Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots

Fan Music Video I made for class at Mills college. Song by the Flaming Lips. Animation and storyboarding all done by me, Nico "Cool Nico" Harriman. Special Thanks to the Mills MFA program, the AV room.

Current Project I'm working on:

My daughter 3 loves this song and she loves seeing music videos. I didn't like the official video for her and then I found this!

She loves it! Now, she runs around the house fighting imaginary pink robots with her star power.

Thank you.

this is such a cute animation ! i really loved the background details like “orphanage for ugly kids” and the pacman “waka waka” when she took the pills

[babybird]

I lost it with Orphanage for ugly children. 😂

[widipradhana]

today was awful but this video made me feel so much better. thank you for making this video!

[Saywhatnow]

Thanks for putting together a music video that this song deserves

[GreenMountainVelvet]

I just want to say this is really good. It’s loyal to the song but also you’ve got your own artistic thing going. Great job. The Flaming Lips would be proud.

this is literally so cute. good job nico!

The devil is in the details and this video had plenty of hilarious nuggets. Orphanage for ugly children...1) Destroy! 2) Bro down...the label on the ''vitamins''...just tons of great stuff.

[Lostlife]

This is incredible! I love the style, you're very talented!

I listened to this album when I played Near Automota lol it was very fitting

[ChazWalkerWonders]

I started listening to this song while playing Rock Band (drumming.) I must have listened to it twenty times before I went looking for a video of it. I [thought] I had a pretty good idea of what The Flaming Lips were going for; after watching the official video, I felt... dirty.

Then I found my vision of the song captured here; well done. You are the reason I would fight kill and die to defend artistic license. This is a beautiful song, and I feel like that beauty might have been permanently stifled by the creator, had you not rescued it. The world owes you one... okay, that might be a bit much, but I owe you a drink (or a soda if that's how you roll.)

[Ojja]

I don't know why, but this song always makes me cry.

[Mr.ratttt]

My family likes this so much and this is better than the origional so im making a vr game where you ARE yoshimi and YOU are batteling the pink robots

sorry for bad spelling

[tracybrown]

[YouceffKabal]

radioactive steroids lol amazing work, this is way better than the official video the Flaming Lips created. always felt this song deserved a cool animation, not exactly like this, but this is just amazing in its own way. incredible work and humor. thank you!
