Animan's World Interviews Rob, Pat & Animan


AW--Today's guests are Rob Medlin, Pat Marks, and the director, Animan.  Rob and Pat play the college men who come to camp in this no-holds-barred sexual fantasy video.

R--That's right. There are four of us: Freddy, Pat, Herbie and me, and we all come to camp on the same bus.

AW--Tell me Pat, what sort of characters do you guys play?

P--Well, I play the most easygoing of the 4 guys. Also, I don't know very much about what's going on!  Rob's character is skeptical at first, but finally breaks down and joins in the fun.

AW--And the fans and I are just dying to find out--Rob, there's a scene where you grab a pair of Larry's soiled underpants and smell them--then Freddy does the same with Larry's dirty jockstrap!  Were those just props, or  did they actually belong to somebody?

R--(laughing nervously) Am I allowed to say this? Animan?

A--The story must be told; both of those were Larry's actual undies. When he first read about it in the script, he just assumed we'd use props--but I wanted reality in this video. I asked Larry if he'd provide the dirty panties and jockstrap. At first, he freaked out a bit, and said, "This is kind of embarrassing"!  But Larry is a wonderful guy--he finally said "yes"! And he got them just dirty enough without grossing everyone out.

AW-Wow….and Rob, did you have any objections to sniffing Larry's smelly underpants?

R--No, no…none whatsoever. Larry's a hot guy--and when I smelled them I got hard!  I couldn't believe it!

A--And Freddy got just as hard when he smelled the jockstrap...

P--Like a ramrod! Which was perfect, because right after that he had to mount Larry…

AW--So, where did the idea of the dirty jock come from?

A--In my high school gym class, I was discussing something with my coach in his office. Another coach was there. Then, a boy brought in a dirty jockstrap, handed it to his coach and said, "I found this on the floor". The jock was really dirty--it had some yellow and brown stains on it. The coach held it up and showed it to the other coach, especially the brown stains, and said, "and it still has the hash marks on it!" And the other coach said, "You mean, the hash browns!"  That's a true story.

R--(laugh)

P--(laughing) I've already heard that story a dozen times, and it always cracks me up! (laughing)

AW--So did you ask Larry to put all these different stains on it?

A--I just said "a little of this, and a little of that"!

R--(laughing)

P--Nasteee! (laugh)

AW--I wanted to ask Animan about the language used in this video--do you think the obscene language isn't maybe a little over-the-top? Or is this just Animan's normal type of talking?

A--No, not at all. A lot of young men talk that way nowadays, and I wanted that reckless sort of youthful swearing.

AW--So, this isn't a "retro"-style video? I mean, your videos usually have a 1950's or '60's feel to them. When does this camp story take place?

A--I decided to leave it vague--it might have a slightly old feel to it, but that's all. Usually the visuals that date a cartoon are the design of the cars, the furniture, or women's hairstyles, or their clothes--and those are elements that never appear in this video. This video isn't so much a retro-piece as it is a video about a bunch of horny guys at camp doing their thing.

AW--So uh, Pat, how did you like starring in this video?

P--Well, I don't think a cartoon like this has ever been made before--and in that way, I think I'm really lucky to be in it! Plus I got a chance to make it with a lot of hot men!  I thinks it's going to be a hit!

AW--What about you, Rob?

R--Well, there's a lot of sex and a lot of nasty talk in this video, but it's all done in a spirit of fun. I really had a great time playing the guy who goes from "skeptical prude" to "nasty dude"!  I think the video goes along at a good pace.  Animan knew exactly what he wanted, and made sure everything got put in.

AW--Animan, is there anything you'd like to add?

A--Many things in this video came from suggestions made by the fans, and I think they make for a good video experience. I hope I can keep doing that in future projects.

AW--Our next and final interview will be with Johnny Davis, Dick Long and Herbie Watson!
