art and the eye of the beholder...
i think you expressed your feelings very well.
also, i like your style. it reminded me of moby(although i don't like moby ^^)
the music and the pictures/animations played together well and it didn't feel like there was any lack of drawing skills (don't get me wrong, you wouldn't win any contest).
i'd say it's worth a look :)
Haha, I don't like Moby either. Thanks for watching, and enjoying it.
Lemme break it down...
Graphics= Pretty unimpressive. The drawings were simple and the was little action. It doesn't matter whether this was the intent, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
Sound= No sound effects, just a mellow song playing in the background. It would have had a nice atmosphere if the animation had been good.
Interactivity= Play/replay buttons, link to a site.
Style= It COULD have had style, maybe if people had been half-illuminated by the rocket's glow, or if it had some really cool omninous scenes with the rockets blasting off in the distance, but it didn't. Instead we got the tired cliche of a single tear rolling down people's cheek's.
Violence= None.
Humor= Not the point of this movie.
Overall= Dissapointing. Had the animation and drawings been better, this would have been worth watching, but without them, this is just a blank envelope with an anti-nuke letter inside.
I don't really think you get the point... do you.
Really Nice!
It's really nice! The background music couldn't be better! It would be nice to know the title! Please include it or reply with it cause the music is really calm and nice.
The song name is "i was in a rowboat as the world ended", by AlantheBOX. Just click Alan's name under mine on the left and it will link to the song. Glad you liked it.
powerfull
that's good, i like it live your life to the fullest, if the graphics where better that woulde be a really great one, i like those kinda movies.
Glad you thought it was powerful. Thanks for watching.
Don't let the overall score deceive you
I think this is a movie that cannot be judged by the NG standards because I knew that you were not trying to be funny nor violent with this movie.
Best Part of the Movie: I think that you are one of few animators who try to make all sound, picture, idea, and artistic elements try and flow together. One of the best things you did was match every element well: 1. a twisting idea of the world ending 2. a gloomy, but cresending song 3. slow motion animation and 4. a cool style of writing.
Worst Part of the Movie: The animation was crude. I wish that you will remake this movie later on down the road when you have developed a more sophisticated style.
Cool Element of the Movie: I liked that you left the title of the movie on the lower left hand side of the screen. I found that to be a very nice piece of trademark that you could label for yourself. Maybe once you could pend a signiture to one of your works.
Overall: I kind of wish the movie would have ended with the phrase "I just so happened to be in a rowboat when the world ended." I think it sets an individual perspective of life and allows an audience to question what they would do with their final moments in this world. I find this to be a good piece of work and even though I gave it a poor rating by NG standards for this review, I gave a confident 5 in hopes that this movie won't be blammed.
Wow, one of the better reviewers. I'm glad you thought it was good, and I know what you mean. Thanks for writing all that.
