Definitely different

It's really obvious that you put a lot of effort into this. The expressions of the cat are endearing, and then sad. I have to say, I'm not a huge fan of tear-jerker endings. To me, it was an odd closing of the tale. But hey, I'm just one observer. Overall, great work.

Evocative and fun

I like this piece, especially the deeper meaning of how you've played along with the curious nature of the cat and how it pursues the butterfly across the scenes. I think that you would have benefited more from a wider ranging study of feline mannerisms, as you would have been better off with it curling up into a ball, opening one eye lazily and then considering waking up for starters, possibly with the "hunter's crouch" when it starts to stalk the butterfly.

It was a shame that the video quality couldn't match up with the rest of the quality of the flash, since I tried to expand it, which wasn't possible, since it cost a lot in the picture quality, even with the lights dimmed, which was a shame. You've done a great job with the 3D stuff, so please continue to work at that and give is some more great works :)

Other than that, the last part could have done with some voice acting, since speech bubbles are a little primitive nowadays.

Tecnical Animation

This for me it's a very tecnical animation. All but the script are good, the 3D/2D enviroment was very good.

I gave a seven because the script was kinda confusing... it seems like the dashkin animation but it's to shot to make a sense.

No Emotion!

The facial expression is almost the same during the whole movie!

try to fix that next time ;)
