Human Hair Story (bts) (Patreon)

Hey guys.

So I go thrifting very often. My most recent insane find was a Clarinet that somebody wanted $10 for. I've been practicing it every day since.
(spoiler: definitely expect clarinet in future songs)

But anyways, I find this dirty ziploc bag the other weekend sitting in a pile of fabrics. It has a yellowed piece of tape on it that someone scratched:
"HUMAN HAIR 50 CENTS" on with a ballpoint pen.

Naturally I took it home and decided to use it in this last video.

(A side note as well, I had intended to make this one in black and white, and I have an alternative version, but ended up liking the noses colored.)

So long story short, I'd like to say to all of my fellow animators and experimenters: avoid working with human hair.
Or maybe just cough up more than 50 cents on it, I suppose.
This stuff went everywhere.
It was impossible to work with and made the largest mess I've had in a while.

The main photo attached at the top is my final attempt to tame my 50 cent human hair with a combination of staples, bits of cardboard, and packaging tape from the shop.

I hope everyone is having a great day.
