Old Animations

Here are a few animations from the old Rock School site. These are from the days of low bandwidth – low frame rates, low res, low everything. They won’t play on most mobile devices, including iPhones/iPads. And I can’t get WordPress to display the really ancient stuff from pre-Flash days.


Theme from Rock School

All students, graduates, faculty, and employees of Rock School are required to memorize this alma mater song. The Theme from Rock School (© Heartworm Music, BMI) is emotional, and may bring a tear to the eye. Oh, and it has swearing.

 




Using Your Status As A Band Member To Score
Using Your Status as a Band Member to Score

From September, 1999. One of the fringe benefits of playing in a band is that members of the opposite sex will automatically find you desirable.








Song-O-Mater
Song-O-Mater

Song writing is hard work. It requires creativity, discipline, persistence, and plenty of rest. Use Rock School’s Song-O-Mater to hone your song writing skills.” From May, 2000. This activity was inspired by the Jam-O-mater (currently defunct due to outdated file format).




The Importance Of Good Fan Relations
From July 1999. Although your goal is to appeal to fans on a musical level, you may have to connect on a more personal, one-on-one basis. This lesson features the voice of Brian Dewan as The Fan.

      Hey Randy – good to hear from you. The animations need reformatting in order to play well on WordPress. Some of them are so old I can’t even open them. But I’ll definitely put a few more up in this section of the site at some point.

    So, I guess the Jam-O-Mater is gone? And the one where you hunt for the bathroom? I think about that whenever I have to hunt for a bathroom.

      The Jam-O-Mater is so old it doesn’t play too well in current browsers. The Gotta-Take-A-Whiz-A-Thon might still work though. I’ll check it out.

    Why not convert the old animations to videos, post them on YouTube, and embed that?
