Ocean Man Fan Animation (Tribute to Stephen Hillenburg)

A tribute to Stephen Hillenburg, creator of Spongebob Squarepants, who died in November.

This video took WAY longer to make I expected. I started making it soon after Stephen Hillenburg died, and I finished it the day of uploading it. This is why I haven't posted a video in so long.

Fun Fact: The song in this video, "Ocean Man" by Ween (known for being used in the credits of the spongebob movie in 2004), came off the 1997 album "The Mollusk" by Ween. The album was one of Stephen Hillenburg's favorites (As was Ween's music in general), and Hillenburg even said that the album was a big inspiration while creating the show. Inspiration for Spongebob's voice might have come from the chorus of the song "Mutilated Lips" off of the album. Inspiration for Mr. Krabs's voice also may have come from the song "The Blarney Stone" off the album (The song has some explicit language just in case you want to listen to it). Some references to Ween and The Mollusk were made in Spongebob, for example, in the episode "Sleepy Time," Spongebob says, "Mind your wandering eye, you little mollusk." to Gary, while one of the lyrics in the song "The Mollusk," is, "The Mollusk lingers, with its wandering eye." Ween even contributed to the show directly, because they were the ones who made the "Loop de Loop" song in the episode "Your Shoe's Untied." Ween played the "Loop de loop" song live followed by "Ocean Man" to pay tribute to Stephen Hillenburg after he died.

I do not own the song "Ocean Man" by Ween, and I am not affiliated with the band "Ween" or any members of the band. Please don't take this video down, Ween.
