Part of my art coursework was to design an animation relating to the topic in which I am working with. The animation's purpose is to promote/advertise a non-existent theatrical production (play) named 'The Mechanical Garden. The topic must relate to both Mechanical and Shadows in which I have included both in this piece by creating flowers out of photos of metallic surfaced objects from my house, the background (if you've noticed) features different silhouettes/shadows of cogs and dead trees.
The soundtrack in the background was created simply using a keyboard and a microphone. There are three different layers to the soundtrack which were recorded and edited on the popular program Audacity.
Thanks for viewing this, it is relatively short but I had a deadline to meet and a whole lot more of art coursework to do for my final art exam.
"I like the colour in the background, it suits bombs dropping. It's like a war zone. That would've made it more chilling, how now we've been so destroyed by mankind and it's inventions. Even nature has become mechanic"

There is no actual film, plus the gears are spinning in a mechanically impossible way in the first sequence.

Nice...
Well done. I understand why its short so i wont go on about that. Ide like to address how well you timed the sounds to the mechanical plants popping up, It was perfect.

Amazing
I'm sorry for the low score, and hate when anyone complains about a film being short. But it was way too short, great idea and I would love seeing more of the garden. Hope you make a longer version and I'll give you a 10 hands down.
Thank you, I'm afraid it was because it was only designed to be a breif advertisement as part of my art coursework, but thank you for the score :)

Awesome! Short though
It's really nice, but it seems a little short...not sure what you could add though. Maybe show more of the garden?
Yes I know it was short, it was down to a deadline and designed to be a brief advertisement, or promotion. The actual flash file had freezing problems and all sorts so I had to actually take a lot of stuff out, Im not sure whats wrong with it but thanks! :D
