I have finally finished it! The Guardian is done!
The music is called "Shadows" composed by Lindsey Stirling, be sure to click on the link at the end to check out her other stuff! She's really talented!
Special thanks to RicePirate for giving me advice throughout the process of me making it. I'm sorry if I spammed you with so many dumb questions!
Well anyway, I hope you enjoy! Happy New Year!
EDIT: Thank you so much for daily first and front page! I'm very grateful :]

wow
this is just wow i almost broke my jaw as it hit the desk when i watched it
the music is absolute perfect and makes a good setting for the story
even tho short the animation is good and it makes sense( from this angle atleast)
Animation 8/10 can be improved at some points your getting there
Music 10/10 fits perfectly
Story 9/10 short but powerfull and easy to follow
perhaps for future animations more text and a longer story this is up to you tho

Really cool.
I suppose I should start off with the parts of this I didn't particularly care for, just to get it out of the way:
There were a few confusing parts to this, and I saw a lot of places where more description would be nice (for example, what was that fire-looking thing? who was speaking to him? what were the monocle'd man's motives? etc. etc.). I know it's harder to do that in a video with very little dialogue, but it's not impossible. The art is rather simplistic and could use some work-- in more serious stories, I like a little more detail. But maybe that's just me...
Now for the parts I liked.
Despite a couple plot holes and moments of confusion, this was really good. I know from that bit up there that I wrote, it may seem like I didn't like this, but I assure you that I was just being critical; this is actually really good. The concept is great, and the design of the guardians was pretty awesome. The music was beautiful and gave the story a bit of a wild, ethereal feel, and you synced it with some of the scenes pretty nicely. It was involving and interesting and it would make a great series. I don't know if you've done other stuff with these characters or this universe, but I really, really hope you develop this story. You could do some really great things with this.
So yeah, it was good. :)

Nice little short
I enjoyed it.. I don't have the time to go look into the details as to why but I can tell you this- physchopath's review.. good Lord. I really wouldn't pay attention to his review.. he looks way too much into a short. If this were a full blown out story in the making then some of the issues might be worth looking into but he could have been a lot more tactful in telling you that. I thought your animation was good.. of course there are better "smoother" animations out there but heck, I thought it was neat and I liked the green glowy guys.. and was sad to see one go =(. Anyways, keep up the good work.
