'G-Mod Idiot Box' - Unconventional Ways of Producing Animation




I found this approach to animation very curious and unique as the creator was using an existing 3D game environment complete with character presets SFX and VFX to his advantage by using a game hack/modification program to produce an animation by moving the characters and editing the environments they are put in.
What the mod also enables the creator to do is change the facial/bodily expressions of the characters to any degree they see fit, which makes for some very surreal looking expressions.
I am not sure of the legality of this method of animation, using and modifying somebody else's creation in order to create your own piece of creative expression, but i do feel that this method could be used to produce some interesting results, not just for entertainment/narrative purposes but for more artistic purposes.
