Comedy Kings JibJab and Weird Al Yankovic Break New Ground with Video Parody of American Idol Winner
“We are honored to have had the opportunity to work with comedic great Weird Al. His body of work has defined the field of musical satire and parody for decades and we had an incredible time working together,” said Gregg and Evan Spiridellis, co-founders of JibJab. “We also admire the incredible job he has done leveraging the Internet to build a one-on-one relationship with his fan base.”
“I’ve always been a great fan of JibJab’s comedic sensibility, and it’s been a real pleasure working with them,” said “Weird Al” Yankovic. “JibJab is changing the paradigm for the way multimedia content is distributed and it’s very exciting for me to be a part of that.”

Hey this has nothing to do with this blog, but Albinoblacksheep.com has a cool new flash file for Al’s song Albuquerque. It’s soooo good and I thought everyone should know about it and watch it.

the albuquerque video is pretty cool, very good job illustrating almost every aspect of the song despite the poor visuals. However, I wish more people made an effort to make their flash movies less “flash-like” and more traditional. This JibJab video is amazing and it was done in flash, just goes to show you how far your efforts will get you.
