"Different..."

date: December 11, 2005

That was interesting. There were a few things I didn't like about it though, the biggest thing being that on a few parts, more than one voice overlap and it is quite hard to tell what is being said. Maybe that's intentional, but if it's not, then i suggest fixing it.
Second, the movie seemed to progress quite slowly, and instead of an exciting journey to the lower world, it seemed like a.....I don't know.....something non-exciting and slow.
Third, it just needs......more. More adventure in it would've been nice. Like if the guy saw a bunch of different spirits instead of just two.
This movie could take off and be great. Just keep working on it. Humor is never a bad thing either.

Author's Response:

I'm not sure if I want to change the voice overlap or not, I don't know how else to convey multiple clashing thoughts. But, the value of that is indeed diminished if you can't really hear any of them. Hmm.

Also, this movie was autobiograpical, so I'm not going to add any more spirits than the ones I saw. I have done other meditations that I could animate, but I'm not sure if I'm that into the project. It does move kind of slow, though. It was all supposed to be sort of mellowdramatic because none of it was really happening and the main character (me) was aware of this most of the time.

"Nice idea, but lacking."

by: Cycore

I loved the concept, but you went a different direction with the humor which was okay too, though not as original. The drums were nice, but the voices sounded really bad. I couldn't understand half of the comments. The lack of emotion in the voice acting also didn't fit your character. The animation was very nice, the graphics were well done.

Author's Response:

The voice was supposed to be pretty emotionless because the main character wasn't that entranced by the meditation. I think the reason you didn't get that though was because the voices were difficult to hear. I'll work on that.

Also: there was no concept or direction, I was just trying to stay as true to my experience as possible
