Content experiment - Sweet Boy Beach (Patreon)

*edit* the first version of this post had a dodgy link to the video , its fixed now.

A few days ago I posted two sketches of beach dudes on the facebook page and asked what sort of things they'd say to each other.  I got some good suggestions and I made a short cartoon with very limited animation out of it.

I was motivated to do this after attending a youtube event at my old uni campus last Friday.  I was on a panel with the guys from the Big Les show which went ok, I don't think I embarrassed myself, it was a pretty good day but I digress, the guy from youtube really brought home that youtube is about content and they don't give a fuck how long it takes to make of if it's original they just care if it's creating long session times.  

I've been toying around with an idea of a viewer generated show with limited assets for a while, but the guy from youtube's lecture pushed me to try it.  It would be expanded from what is here, with other characters and settings, all suggested by viewers.  I reckon I could pump out 5-6 minutes of this kind of thing a week once I had the assets.  Coming up with a method that cracks youtube's preference for longer videos is an alluring challenge.  

The question is: Would people watch it?  Is it even watchable, much less entertaining?  It's an experiment so I'm prepared to accept it's a failure (btw this is not a patreon project).

The music is Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Reminiscence  (used without permission, it's a placeholder until I make my own music, even though I doubt I could create something as good as this track).

In other more painful news I started moving house today for the first time in 8 years.  bleh.  Because of this content experiment and the moving My Mother in Law is a Scorpion won't be progressing much but I'm planning on hitting it hard as soon as I'm set up in the new place and we've finished cleaning this place.
