NEW VIDEO | The Story of Mario Paint
Added 2020-07-25 23:07:51 +0000 UTCYou voted for it and here it is: The Story of Mario Paint! A 45 minute documentary all about Nintendo's art program for the Super Nintendo.
I started working on this video at a difficult time. My wife had just had emergency surgery and I was her caretaker for awhile. But she is doing much better now and, in a way, finishing this video feels like closure over that whole ordeal.
The most interesting part of making this video was capturing game footage. Because you don't really "play" Mario Paint. You make stuff! So I had to make ALOT of drawings / animations / music in Mario Paint. You can kind of see the art improve as the video goes along.
The more I played Mario Paint, the more I was impressed with it. It works really well!
Hope you all enjoy! Also, I apologize if you see an ad. I got a bogus copyright claim on a music track (which I have the license for). Working on clearing that up now.
