"I enjoyed watching that"

by: Esn

Although it moved a little slowly at times, I was glad that I got the chance to see it. It is indeed very dreamlike; you were very successful in capturing that feeling. I also loved the colours that you used. The weakest part of it was probably the character drawings; they didn't seem quite right most of the time. So I do feel that it's a little underdone and thus give you 7/10, but it's a "good" 7/10, if that makes sense.

And yes, all art is just stealing the best bits from life and other art. :)

"Very very good indeed"

date: December 30, 2008

Like watching a visualisation of someone attaining the knowledge and conversation of their holy guardian angel. The design of the first door reminded me of artwork from Crowley's Thoth deck.

You are a talented artist and I like your work.

"Hmm"

In the middle of your flash I thought: "Hmpgh... it's boring..." but I watched it till the end and saw a guy (probably you? :]) waking up and then the sense of this movie and I think that your plot is quite nice. Visual presentation throughout the dream associate to me with Fountain The Movie (great movie btw...) but of course it wasn't so stunning and beautiful as in that film. However your production is quite unique and even if not 100% succesfully, it manages to make me (and probably other watchers) think and this is very good. As some people noted you should work on animation quality and graphics.

"Moderately good"

date: December 14, 2008

I though the graphics on the middle couple "levels" were really good, especially the third one. The way the dude progressed was kind of cool, however, the final part before he wakes up was pretty subpar, which is when he should have looked best. I didn't like the youtube style ending at all, that destroyed the feeling that the rest of the movie had. I did however, like that you tied it all together with the books and MacBeth and whatnot. Overall it was pretty good, I hope to see from you.

""wow." indeed."

date: December 14, 2008

Damn.

For me, someone with chronic insomnia, this is just what I can relate to. Not being able to sleep for more than 2-3 hours a night (and your body still needing a rest for about 6) means trying to think of stuff to ponder. Often, totally random stuff comes to mind, and that is exactly how I feel like I can relate to this flash.

Thus, I feel that the idea was totally awesome. The music worked fine for me, and so did the graphics (no shiftyness at the high quality setting). The lack of any action did not bother me whatsoever either.

However, what does keep it down, is the animation itself. It didn't show enough movement for me to give it a 10/10. It was actually closer to an 8, but I'm in a good holiday mood right now xD.

So yeah, keep at it. I liked this very much indeed.
