"Either my drawings sound like my music, or my music looks like my drawings."
Harvey Rothman (aka Shufflehound on SoundCloud) is a British animator, artist, and musician who makes surreal, comedic animations. Most of his videos are less than a minute long, but his most popular video is Foxy Gets Hooked, a Denser and Wackier, almost 9-minute-long video based on Five Nights at Freddy's, explaining Harvey's take on how the character Foxy got his Hook Hand.
Tropes for Foxy Gets Hooked can be found on its own work page.
Harvey also contributes to some Multi-Animator Project "reanimated" collabs, such as the one
for The Legend Of Zelda C Di Games.
His YouTube channel can be found here.
Tropes relating to Harvey and his non-FNAF animations include:
- Inkblot Cartoon Style:
- "Sans and Papyrus Go for a Wander" features Sans and Papyrus in a black-and-white cartoon style. Papyrus has noticeable rubberhose limbs, and the video contains a title card, a looping, painted background, and a flickering filter to make it look like an actual cartoon from the early days of animation.
- "Merry Saint Nickmas" features a smiling, Pie-Eyed wolf playing a piano. Harvey mentions in the description that the video was "inspired by early Fleischer cartoons."
- "Sans and Papyrus Go for a Wander
- Polka Dork: In "The Spongey Show", Squidward meets a guy playing accordion, and finds him annoying."Oh, this music is terrible!"
- Retraux: Harvey typically uses traditional, hand-drawn animation, a medium all but forgotten in mainstream animation since the early 2000's. Commenters will often compare his art style to those of a variety of decades in the 20th century, but The '60s seems to be the most common decade brought up.
- Rouge Angles of Satin: In "Sans and Papyrus Go for a Wander," Harvey accidentally wrote "Wonder" instead of "Wander" on the title card. Back when YouTube allowed annotations, Harvey left a note where he seemed angry for not noticing the mistake until he had already uploaded the video.
- Stylistic Suck:
- "The Spongey Show" has very intentionally crude animation.
- Harvey's profile picture, a crudely drawn dog, is nothing compared to the incredible artworks and animations he normally makes.
