I think that may be the most casual way any person said "I guess I could have just severed the head." Very cool way to get the effect!

I think the reason I like video editing is the same reason I make props or do magic. It's a problem solving creation thing. "I want to do this... now how do I do that?"

Wow, that is a really cool effect - I was trying to figure it out myself. Definitely works for a twitchy, creepy character.

That mickey head was the stuff of nightmares, and now I know how to recreate it at home. Thx cap.

That was very cool! As someone who has never done anything with video, I really love this sort of behind the scenes, how-you-did-it stuff. I watched the original and didn't really think about it, but now I have much more appreciation of the amount of work and care that went into creating it. Also, cute cat.

Thanks! I enjoy watching behind-the-scenes stuff of other creators' work too. The cat's name is Sonya. Sometimes she's nice... and sometimes she's evil.

So THAT's why it looks why it did :p That's actually pretty clever. I wonder if it's possible to refine it even more. Not saying that you should do it, but there was a kind of jerkyness to it that's... interesting and other-worldly, but also I wonder if it can be smoother. Still, that's pretty clever :o
