Wow, daily 5th, my best so far, thanks alot everyone I'm really glad my third try finally made it ha, I guess I should really fix the replay button now.
-----the replay button doesn't work well.. I'll fix that in a little while---
---by popular demand :translation to the parts in spanish---( I added an explanation at the end too....)
Despierta= wake up
que sientes? = what do you feel?
que haces? = what do you do?
que eres? = what are you?
en verdad despierta = truly wake up

I haven't submitted much, and it will be a while after I submit again due to some work I've got, so I would really appreciate the reviews.
Well this is my take on my own confusion about the world, if you think it's confusing, then good, but the animation is not that hard to interpret, just make your own meaning to it, thats fine. I promise my next animation will be more random fun than seriousness, but as I said that will have to wait.
Man was I lucky I found and adopted a song for this one, the whole animation was done randomly by me before I even thought about which audio to use.
Ciao dudes/dudesses and thanks for seeing this,
------------------
about the story..
if you already saw it and couldn't understand or interpret a thing... here's what it meant to me, and what are the events going on,the point is that it means something to you though...
What is going on? Description of the scenes:
The first scene is a series existential questions ,it is abit implied that this scene is going on in the character's head, since it gives the command despierta (wake up) and the next scene is the character waking up.
After waking up the character finds himself in a common enviornment.. though he looks around as if it wasn't and you can see flashes of an alternate place... maybe it is in his head, maybe it is actually there (you can see some shadows on the window), it could be part of some experiment, after all reality could be relative and that is a big point in this animation.
Exiting this common room he walks through a corridor.. which also brings to mind the concept of an experiment facility. At the end of the tunnel you can see that something is not how it is supposed to be, the tunnel seems broken and a white space follows it with a female figure on it... alluring him.
Contact with this strange figure generates a violent reaction and a second awakening occurs, almost as if provoked by this figure which calls to him, which tells him to wake upagain.
When the character wakes up, the exterior is gone, and his core( a machine) is all that's left... it is mantained in a closed room and it's being analyzed, but his reawakening is much stronger than his first and he sets himself free... but how free truly free means is in doubt.
--------------------
ok so with this you now know what is going on... what does it mean? You should really work on that... but ,as I said before, to me it is related to:
the basic questions of life... and death, and the futility of it all (or at least not knowing if it is so or not), how awake we are... how much is social programming and how much of us is truly left? it makes me wonder ... what "me" would I be in a completely different environment, i play around a bit with the idea of a higher power which even could be within ourselves not necessarily a god, etc..
In other words... IT IS MY CONFUSION
that's enough to get your mind started if you didn't have any ideas about it I guess
