Reviews for "[fishes]"

looked nice

I liked this from the start, but a little over half way through, i started to feel like it was too long, I would have like it more if the shots of you getting in and out if bed were rotoscoped, I thought the live action of that was unnecessary, over all it had a nice mood and looked good for the most part.

notorious responds:

they were rotoscoped

thanks!

Hmm!

This made me think... it's really good!
Only problem is the sound is slightly weird, and sounded like screaming when I used my earphones...

Oh, btw, you have the same duvet as me :P

notorious responds:

what's a duvet

Niiice.

That was a very calm, slow, bizarre movie. It kept my interest the whole time, and it had a deep meaning in it that, although I didn't understand, will probably float through my mind for a while longer. It's hard to come by movies like that very often.

Very nicely done. =)

...And to JimGrim, the plural for "fish" can actually be "fish" or "fishes."

notorious responds:

thanks JonBrojf

hmmm, yes.

I agree that this is art more than what is considered conventional flash, which I thank you for making, as the more art animations that come around, the more people can be prouder of those 'visual experiments' they've made in flash, which we all have. I have mountains of complex frame by frames that I don't put on the net because they would seem pointless. So what you are doing is opening windows.
While I commend you and 'appreciate' your animation, I have to criticise (sorry). There is a big difference between poetry and philosiphy, and poetry lacking philosiphy is no more than a self obsessive phase teenagers go through that it's hoped we grow out of. You did have philosiphy, with your comparisons with the rat race of life, but no new ideas, it was mainly a big steaming lump of emotions. If you manage to bring new ideas to the table, perceptions that people haven't considered, and express your ideas artisticly (opposed to your emotions) then poetic paths will open for you. And you will learn to think, and become and interesting person.
Bearing in mind: their is also difference between emotions and feelings, and opinions. Your views themselves are still important and useful.
Observing is important, which you are good at I think.
Creativity is important, which you definately have.
Now use these observations, be creative and think. You can come up with wildly original ideas, and appeal to more than just our humble little internet (but still become incredibly celebrated on the net).
I wish you luck in future endeavours.

ACE!

You are a great artist, and this was really creative and i enjoyed it. But i got a bit bored near the end so thats why i gave an 8 instead of a 10, but thats probably just me, i can't watch somthing for longer than 20 seconds without seeing violence or explosions :) Good job though, keep at it.
