!
I was planning to do something like... identical to this... its been on my mind all weekend, and it was all with the same song too! (I wont get too wordy with my details, but mine was based on Nazism, or a totalinarianistic goverment, as well as censorship)
But congrats, lovely job, lovely graphics, they did lag slightly... but i still enjoyed it. Keep up the good work ^_^ Cheers
OMG, I just had to review this.....
I gave it a ten, because, amidst all this political turmoil (a lot to do with Jeff Weise no doubt) its so damn funny to watch the helplessly mind programmed political 'chumps' produce something like this. Dem, Rep, and practicaly any other party for that matter. There was an item that demands clarification. What country did Bush nuke? Ours? It got confusing.
Based on the merits of graphics, it looks pretty good. I liked the colors, the animation was pretty smooth, and whoah, the giant robotic elephant was prit E darn nift E. Style, eh, its politicaly motivated, so it has very little style. Sound? I thought the music was pretty kewl and clear.
Violence? Its so damn ironic. How come the blues pick up rifles? I thought no civilian blues were supposed to use them. But thats OK. I mean, hey, its all a matter of opinion about whats wrong and right eh? So, when your wrong but believe your right, its OK to go that last ditch effort and start killing people. In that case, maybe the blues in this flash should hop in bed with the Al Queda!
I'm sorry, but the political state of this country is so insipid and predictable, it really is funny. I've already spent to much time reviewing this in addition to the length of the actual movie. Its just gone you know.
As it is kid, for your age, this is a pretty insightful flash. You got one big part of it right. What you haven't gotten is that both sides want your mind. They'll do just about anything to get it and to convince you that what they want is in everyone's best interest. Best thing to do is ride the fence and vote for the lesser evil. Maybe someday things will change.
An interesting piece...
Well, I have to say, it's a very bleak and dismal future you envision. But you portray it well.
That said, You have great graphical talent. The Republican AT-AT was interesting.
Do work on your animating, though; they all looked too stiff. Granted, I can see that for the soldiers, but not the civilians. Also, Elephants walk differently than the way you drew them. Still, it was smooth, if not stiff, so It's all good.
The song was a good choice, but the quality was so low that I really couldn't understand it, and it sounded very garbled and grainy.
Overall, an interesting Orwellian take on a future I hope doesn't come to fruition. Keep 'em coming. : )
teensy biased.
sure, most of the Republican party is just a bunch of greedy liars in politics for their own personal and group agendas (complete control possibly one of them), but let's not forget, so is the Democratic party. Also, not quite as creative as you were hoping, much of it has been done before. Still, damn good job portraying a message and keeping my attention.
perfect song great vid. better grafx preferred
it was fun...
