Time to Boogie, yo

A few days ago i was boppin to some pandora and heard this song. I remember hearing the song at American Eagle and i was in trace due to how kewl it sounded--not the quality of the lame video. :\

So anyways, i took the first 1:15 bit of the song and made a kinetic typography out of it--yeah yeah i know i was workin on the hairspray song, but i feel like i got alot more done when i had a sound clip opposed to an entire song to worry about. Fortunately, i finished most of the animation the words in aftereffects, so now im going to animate the camera to make it look extra epic. I think im making good time--i started only a few days ago..

AND DING DONG--MY NEW INTUOS4 TABLET JUS ARRIVED. YEYYYY.

LATERS YALL I MUST DROOL UPON IT..not literally..okay maybe a little.
