"great flash"

A flash like i havent seen before.

The greatest thing about this is that u really let your imagination speak for itself and created a surreal, almost Dali like experience.

The drawings (both characters as backgrounds)were all ok, not too detailed, but good enough for its purpose. Same goes for the animation.

The music was wellpicked and kind of hypnotizing in a way. It gave the piece the right atmosphere and kept the viewer interested while watching

As for the most important aspect, the concept of this flash, i must say i liked it, although there are some points that i think could have worked out better. As we see the main character begin his journey flying out of his house and commencing his journey i wasnt quite sure why this happened. I think it are the last moments before his suicide and this is how u imagine that time would be like. Its hard to say what i didnt really like about the surreal aspect, but i think it could have all done a little bit more convincing. Maybe more abstract. Everything that happened i couldnt relate in a way to the character or myself and that kept the flash a little bit too far away and unpersonal. For me it was just nice fantasy with a nice tune on the background..

But i still like the flash. Only for its originality alone it belongs in the top 100. Take care!

I think I would have been happy if it was all just a dream. I personally don't know what you're getting at with the suicide bit, but I do have doubts that dying is anywhere near as surreal as some people want to think it is.

To bad too. I loved the imagery all around, but the whole piece was ruined for me when he dies.

It basically becomes REALLY depressing, in a artificial way (he's not living in the barrios of Brazil where they literally treat you like scum or anything remotely NEAR that kind of life experience)

Oh well, its your piece, just remember that presenting art isn't just about expressing yourself. Sometimes, you have to remember that art can affect life, and being given a talent comes with SOME resposibilities (unless your just out to make entertainment, but even then... )

Keep making good stuff. God Bless.

That was great. It made no sense at all, but it was very calming. I liked the music, and I loved the graphics. The animation was just so smooth.

This is one fantastic flash! I don't want to throw out a spoiler for those of you who have yet to watch this but I will say that though some may not like the end, I loved it. Yes, he went on a journey and who's to say we all won't experience something of the like sooner or later. You have awesome talent and I can only sit back and watch and envy. Very nice work!!!!
