No, really, we were networking!
April 28th, 2009Seven animators spent last Friday night in a padded room surrounded by red velvet, feverishly punching in numbers into a remote control, and howling into small silver sticks.
Yes, that’s right. I’m talking about karaoke at Hit Studio in Northbridge.
Highlights of the evening:
- The ladies all sing-shouting, “It’s Raining Men” (the Geri Halliwell version), and frightening the bejeesums out of the poor outnumbered boys.
- Clancie Shorter saying, “I would really like to go to that place right now, that place where it is raining men.” Amen, Clancie.
- Ebbie Williams going into hysterics when the crazy Santa figurine montage appeared for “Wake me up before you go go”. Seriously, guys, now that is just lazy.
- Making up subtext for the very bad videos accompanying the music. Like Mystery Science Theatre 3000, but without the high production values!
- Disco-dancing and finger-pointing to “Staying Alive”.
- Men in Viking helmets.
Who says animators don’t know how to party?
