Blargh.
I definetly enjoyed this animation. The ideas, art style and animation were all excently executed and they all worked together to make an excellent final product but my main problem with this piece was the camera movement style. It gave me the worst possible headache imaginable and while I loved this, that really made this animation hard to watch all the way through. Thanks very much for putting in so much effort though. It really was brilliant.

thanks for the review!
awesome
ok i really liked this. i really like the camera, the shaky camera gave the action a nice affect. maybe a little to shaky at time. the camera work gave what would have been mundane action a more vibrant feel.
oh and the sound was awesome to.
Thank You
the camera work is part of the journey you as the viewer is experiencing.
i would like all viewers to fully immerse themselves in the flash. the camera movements are your thoughts, and i try to think what the viewer is thinking as they experience the infiltration and match it as closely as i can to those thoughts.
thanks for the review
awesome
I like this one alot ! :D
you ware really captured by it and felt action pretty much all the time! :D
tumbsup!
'captured' 'felt'
thanks for the review!
Amazing!!
Has a great Star Warsy feel to it. The music also added to the effect. Great sfx and animation was well done. However, the camera was a bit too jittery so you lose a point for that. Overall, amazing animation. Why not join FluidAnims?
i cant say im sorry for the jitteryness, but it is all part of my effort to instill frequency and urgency into the thoughts of the Trilia
thanks for the review!
really excellent, Except
First of all, good job man! Keep up the work. I'd love a sequel, maybe some action of attack teams trying to board an enemy cruiser.
I have two issues:
One, the screen-shake effect. Tone it down a bit, please? You shook the screen around a little too much to make it seem faster and more intense and just enough to make it hard to focus on the movie.
Two: the sounds were a bit grating on my ears. I don't know how else to describe it, but look into slightly softer sounds, perhaps? And I don't mean 'softer' in the musical sense, which means quieter, but I would expect futureguns to have really excellent silencers, y'know? More like fftfft or pewpew than BANGBANGBANG.
By the way the lightsaber knife was way cool. I also like how the characters don't look quite real. It has an aesthetic to it and it also probably makes it easier to animate. Jolly good show, man. It would deserve a best of the week if not for the screen-shake thing.
yes the shaky camera is just an idea to bring across the urgency of the Trilia.
the sounds used were part of an extensive process to bring across the hostility and brutality of the military base.
the 'aesthetic' u mention is part of my effort to make the animations 'flow'.
thanks for the review!
