neat test
fabulous anmiation skills, like you said, you were testing your style and it was good to do that. my only problem is that i dont like how compressed the plot of your short story, even though i understand it wasn't your intention to make a fanciful plot as much as making an interesting visual style.
in our photo school, we are taught that the best way to discover your style is to let it come naturally. dont try to force a style... just keep making and honing your art of storytelling. you have obvious talent here... i hope you dont waste it on short simple fighting shorts that just seem like visual masturbation. i think we've all seen enough of that kind of genre where there's just nothing in the short but fighting. your style will show itself, please do make another short with more thought into captivating the audience more through conceptual means, rather than visual means which you have already accomplished.
