This is a music video about the life of the common lowlands code monkey.
Jonathan Coulton is a singer/songwriter who releases his songs via the Creative Commons license, which enables projects such as this video. Through his “Thing A Week” podcast, Jonathan has put out a clever, creative song like this one every week for a year.
Mike Spiff Booth is a Program Manager at Adobe who though this great song really deserved a video.
Before you ask, since apes, goblins, and night elf receptionists don’t tend to interact much in the wild, I couldn’t only use captured game footage to make this video. Every frame of this video was composited together by hand using images captured from the WoW Model Viewer, WoW Map Viewer, and the World of Warcraft game itself.
No monkeys were harmed in the making of this film.
Please visit www.spiffworld.com for more information about my videos, including info about how I make them.
The song at the end of the video is “Big Bad World One”, another great Jonathan Coulton song.
