It matters much

Ian,

This was a great flash that you created. Two unlikely characters (perhaps the kind people understand the least - Goths), portray a different side underneath the trenchcoats, industrial metal and black makeup. And that is love.

Within the first few seconds of hearing Third Eye Blind's "How's It Gonna Be" the last thing I expected to see was a photo of two goths basking in the sunshine. My first reaction was, "you're kidding, right?" At first I was a little biast towards the norm, but still I watched. As the scene unfolded I found myself slowly being drawn into their situation. The song that played I remembered from my high school days when I had found myself lost without love. Although I was not a goth, I many ways I was misunderstood. Guess you can call it the artist's curse :) . This flim was a flashback for me... as I'm sure it was to many people. And that's the key! I doesn't just apply to any particular person of any race or society, it is the universal language that so many people take years to learn to speak, and perhaps even longer to find someone to communicate with.

On the techincal side, the animation was well drawn, the characters were unique (the block eyes I've never seen before), and overall everything flowed with song perfectly. A flash project that was very well done indeed. I hope to see more from you in the future Ian, its nice to find an artist who has a warming story to tell once in a while, lord knows we could use one once in a while.

The best of luck in your future projects Ian. Don't stop writing !!

4 out of 5 !

good

its good to find sombody who understands somewhat of this unknown feeling. I myself have done so much study in it yet come up with nothing. Great animation.

well

Typically i like your stuff mostly the whole style of it. But it isnt the flash but the music u use in the flash. Excluding a few i find it really mainstream and anoying. But good job anyway.

Dark-Boy responds:

Well alot of the music I use for the cartoons I use are used for the reason that they are easy and fun to make into cartoons and express feelings.Shure some maybe mainstream and anyoing to you..but I dont buy into that shit man...that stuff is a little to close minded for my taste..and really if the like the song and have an idea for a cartoon..i do it..i've never been one to close my self off from music of anykind..so I dont.I'm glad you enjoyed my works and thanks for watching them.

Dear clueless fag *cough* Riverfish *cough*

You've posted some totaly stupid sh*t, and to repent this you must go stand in the middle of a freeway and give up your internet. In closing I'd like to say, take your crap somewhere else and go play dress-up Barbie for awhile..fag.

Dark-Boy responds:

Thanks for the support.You know its sad because alot of people close there minds off from diffrent expressions of art becuase they'd sooner mock or inslut work they they can't or have not produced..oh well..thanks for the back up.

Oh wow. those goth kids broke up, and now they are soo sad. they just sit around all day listening to third eye blind, crying and missing each other. Oh wait, they go to the park and see each other, and they leap into each others arms. they love one another again, and the world is good. I am so moved. Oh, wait, no I'm not. I am not a twelve year old girl, and I think your submission is boring and overly sentemental. Your artwork, however, is pretty damn good, I just don't care about the story or the charactors.
