The Turtles playing their own Classic Theme Song

mrff · 07-19-2012, 09:55 AM

Hi guys,
I did this animation just for kicks. It's the TMNT playing the classic theme song from the 80's.

I chose Mike for the drums 'cause he's full of energy. Donatello is a brainy guy so I put him on keyboards. The bass is cool and so is Raphael and finally, Leonardo is the leader, so he plays lead guitar.

Each instrument has a different logo, can you find them all?

I hope you guys like it!

What a cute video, the Turtles are such lovely musicians and I think I'll have to watch it again. Really nice job you did there.

Mona_Lisa · 07-19-2012, 01:29 PM

Very cool

Thats a neat video you did there! You did a good job keep it up!

*TurtleTitan97* · 07-19-2012, 03:01 PM

Awesome video,dude.

Newton Gimmick · 07-19-2012, 03:30 PM

Pretty cool!

mrff · 07-20-2012, 02:05 AM

Thanks! I'll upload more turtle videos in the future for sure. It was a blast to make this one.

@Swedenfan 1982
I guess Leo would be the singer, but that's just me...

@Mr.Turtle
Ralph on drums? Maybe I can shuffle them around for the next song

But Michelangelo seems to like rock and roll the most.

OMG, that was awesome! I haven't seen too many fan videos like that as of late!

*zkarlette* · 07-20-2012, 10:42 PM

Man, it's Awesome!

Nice, very nice.

Camera work is a little dizzying, but i guess that kinda fits for a bunch of sewer skatebording, rocking out mutants.

Super awesome! Loved the video!

I'm glad there's someone who also thinks Mikey makes a great drummer!

If you ever get a chance to do it, have a video where Mikey's playing a drum solo. Or better yet, banging on the tympani!

mrff · 07-21-2012, 01:30 PM

LOL!

Yeah he could hit the timpani with his nunchucks!

PS: No strings attached though. If I come up with another song for them to play I could do that. So far I'm thinking of giving the bad guys something to do...

Digital Ghost · 07-21-2012, 02:32 PM

This is great!

*Jephael* · 07-21-2012, 08:37 PM

I favorited the video and left a comment on YouTube!

Thanks for your support, dude!

*Eiko* · 07-22-2012, 03:58 AM

Very cute.

In the Coming Out of Their Shells tour, Raphael was on drums/bass vocals, Michelangelo was on lead guitar and lead vocals, Leonardo was on bass guitar, and Donatello was still on the keyboard. However, I think the "five-man band" concept is better with Leo on lead guitar/vocals and Raph on bass guitar/bass vocals and Michelangelo in the rhythm section.

Great job on both the sound production and animation. I can make out the "Foot Stinks" on Raph's guitar and the "Turtles" logo found on the Playmates carded figures on Leo's guitar. Can't quite make out Don's, though.
