Wonderful rendition
1) Most impressive thing was capturing the movements and the emotions of the animals. This is what made disney famous, it's hard to do and you did an amazing job of it.
2) While less rare, the ability to make a clever story and the way you 'produced it' (in the movie producer sense) indicates very real talent in your case.
3) The Music was a very good choice, beautiful music that set it well. The sound effects were well very chosen and integrated, not too loud, timing was well done.
Overall, your 8 weeks spent making this were not poorly spent, as evidenced by the high score and number of reviews. But I consider it most important to point out that there's a very high level of talent in this particular piece, other pieces may be the production of "one hit wonders" and luck, but I am optimistic that you will have a bright future ahead of you in creating pieces of art, whether as a hobby or a career!
