A Brief History of Pretty Much Everything
This is the final piece for my AS art course, a flipbook made entirely out of biro pens. It’s something like 2100 pages long, and about 50 jotter books. I’d say I worked on and off it for roughly 3 weeks.
Song is French Cancan by Jaques Offenbach.

As a student of animation, I’m blown away by the work and creativity that went into that.
You a freaking renaissance man!
Good job!

This was Mel Brooks, (History of The World) Monty Python, and The Simpsons all scrolled into one.
Evolutionary sequence may be called into question.
LOL.
This was Mel Brooks (History of The World), Monty Python, and The Simpsons all scrolled into one, and expanded my morning.
Thanks.

This is very cool, very funny. A little human centered, but why not?

Very funny!
BR: It is not at all clear that you were not the author of this piece. Maybe you should have put the text above the clip in quotes? And offered a direct link to the original YouTube posted version?
The original author seems to be “Displaced Eskimo”:

Additional sounds credited to Valve, specifically from their game Team Fortress 2.
Other stuff is from the 300 trailer and O Little Town of Bethlehem.
