Description
Hi everyone:
I hope everyone is doing fine and in good spirits!
I have been wanting to do an animation based on the song "Sex Sells" for some
time now. I made every effort to follow the songs lyrics as much as possible.
The most challenging part of doing the nightclub scenes was the lighting, since
most nightclubs tend to be dimly lit and somewhat dark. I placed enough lights
within the scene to approximate a nightclub environment.
I don't do many nude scenes anymore since most subject matters I do, tend to
not require it, but nevertheless this one does and I hope no one is offended by it.
Thank you all for your awesome support and all the wonderful comments you
have left on my previous render.
Take care and be well my friends. :-)

You are by far the best in the animation work Johnny. I can only imagine the time it took to put all this together. Love the glowing look at start/end. All the movements were perfect! I wont be around that far in future, bummer, would enjoy it I think.
The most brilliant, hottest, most impressive movie I've seen in the last couple of years. In the beginning I've thought the lit shapes are actually captures of real people. The magic atmosphere, the amazing effects, the way it switches styles and lighting, the background music and lyrics, everything is beyond magic. Moving to the android enjoyeng the show was another magic moment. Unbelievable master Director, mind-bending fabulous awesome movie.
Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it!
Words can not spell the beauty of the movie and it's magic.
Excellent
This is amazing work! I especially like the way you incorporated all those mirrors. It must have taken forever to render.
Excellent done!!!!!!!!!
I'll buy that for a dollar! Excellent work as always. Nice animation, camera movement, and overall presentation. This looks like you put a lot of effort in every aspect of this short movie, great job. :-)
This is totally mindblowingly fantastic to the max, Johnny! I can't come up with enough words to express how great this video is! A super abundance of incredibly fine praises and kudos from me to you, my friend! You have certainly sent this one to the moon and beyond in fine quality, content and presence! And with that, more words fail me! Easily a million plus stars work!
very very cool animation, very fun to watch, excellent work
AWESOME
3DSMax animations make my Poser animations look lame. But one has to remember 3DSMax costs a few grand and Poser is a few hundred. Sex sells and you've sold it with this one. :) Great work on this JM
Outstanding video! Love it!👍🙋♂️
Thank you for sharing this fantastic new video, love it a lot!!!! 😊
The music track is on theme and your animation and choice of content are beyond brilliant. Excellent in every respect!
And the Palme d'Or" goes to...JohnnyM...his latest video is not only very well done but it's also hot, superb...now I can't stop dancing and thinking of these beauties even if they're not human !
Brilliant Johnny, very impressive!
very electrifying and outstanding movements. reminds me of the song "something in the way you move me like no other lover"
First, the nudes are done with such fine abstract-illuminated treatment, they're not offensive in any way. I love the way you outline them in the beginning and end: You turn their movements into neon abstract art...and against all that black, it's as much a light show as anything. It's beautiful.
After the opening---(upper torso for the title, and blue and pink outlines as if these dancers had neon current running through them)---you start with a long shot, introducing this deep, cavernous club. (As a jazz musician, I played such clubs, and they absolutely feel like a chasm at times!) You caught the feeling right off the bat....But then there's your moving camera: The slow "tracking shot" through the club, as we see all the perspectives open up for us. (You sure you didn't lay down tracks, and bring in a cinematographer??? You really have a feel for the camera...) We start to focus on the central dancer, and then notice that marvelous magic of her reflection, with the bar in front of her suddenly made visible via the reflection. Terrific.
Then the android. He really feels like an android: Ie, stoic, unmoving, physically segmented, and almost zen-like. Then the lights become vivid to us---with that velvety mist. And you start to introduce color---love it, I love the slow transformation from black and white...
Then (I'm going on memory here), you have an amazing shot of one of the dancers, with the club way way in the background; You've lengthened space---as one might experience with certain lenses---and still caught detail on the background. It's almost 2 shots. (That's cinematic, sir!)
Then---if I"m not leaving anything out---you transform your dancers into those neon outlines once more; With wonderful alternations between saturated green, hot red/pink, to reds, etc. And once again the dancers are now light in motion, the human form becoming energy...and you end. I don't know how you do it, but you manage in a few minutes to do a miniature full story. And it flows unbroken from beg to end. (There are cuts, I realize, but it all flows.) Terrific. What can I say...And your outlined dancers remind me of the animation/live action work of Waking Life (by Linklater), or of some fine animated neon art. As for your work with darkness, you got it down as well: One of the great cinematographers was called "The Prince of Darkness" (Gordon Willis, who shot the Godfathers, with all those deep shadows and beautiful deep reds and yellows...he also shot Woody Allen's Manhattan, with it gorgeous deep blacks, etc.) Well, I think you studied with the guy! I think you did (you're just keeping it a secret.) Terrific work! You're really good at this.
What a fabulous animation, you are so talented.... most excellent work, thank you for sharing !!
Wow ! As always I'm so impressed by your skills ! I love the light treatment and the neon glow. It was certainly not an easy video to realize but you have mastered the subject perfectly. Somehow, I find these places so sad : customers go there because they feel lonely and dancers to earn a living... It's not an easy world ! Great artwork dear Johnny !
Great work
A very interesting video and well executed. I also like the music to listen to.
wow! totally amazing video! great use of the mirrors!
Your work always AMAZES !!!! i have many times explored this future look topic so this work is a instant FAV in my book. You are the total REAL DEAL. Please keep 'em coming !!!!!
very fine work
How intriguing this video is in so many ways. It's the character of the man, the light, movements, colors, the atmosphere, and so much more. Really impressive to see, and made so very clever, Johnny. UNIQUE!!!
חמוד, ממש אוהב את זה. This really great!
Amazing work! I don't think I have the patience to complete something like this.
WOW !!! Fantastic work ! Thanks for comments on my last !!!
My my! Very sensual, pure perfection...I love how you did the color changes, its magic...As I used to be a bartender ( in a go go bar) I felt like I was back there again brilliant scene...the abstract played well to my abstract mind (I do abstract art) Bravo!!!
Hi, 3D animation is probably the supreme discipline and render types. Great choreography, very nice effects and quality! I'm still dreaming of that, because even normal rendering requires quite demanding hardware...
