Reviews for "Duality Complete"

Red herbs heal you in resident evil!

Very well drawn, i like the part where they smoke all that herb during their super hug and blend into the duality metaphor.

lol

That waas wicked

that was so cool! I loved it but I thiought it was to short! I guess most good videos are. I love the animation as well.

Very interesting...

Wow, I loved watching this. It was good all the way through, and I liked the ending. The animation was well done as well. Thumbs up for that. =D

Now to the other stuff, no offence, it was a rather cliche topic, you know as in yin and yang, light and dark, machine and nature, etc. However it struck me as original because of the way you presented this flash and of course your artistic animation style.

I think what disapointed me a bit was how the idea wasn't exactly expanded more, or wasn't as complex as I had hoped. Although the title of your animation "Duality" obviously indicates conflict between two 'opposing' forces I still think more could have been explored. I think what showed the lack of complexity in this flash was probably because for me the animation was a bit short. However, what I have just said may not have been what you were hoping to achieve with this animation. But still, hopefully you take this into consideration.

Otherwise a really good flash. Well done, I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Although i know the topic is one we are all familiar with, it's one i often think about and keeps coming back to me in my line of thought, I feel there's always a flipside to everything.
sometimes I have difficulty standing firm to one single opinion for to long becuase i imagine that if i had lived a different life and trough different experiences it would be possible for me to have an opinion that would be close to the opposite. i find that truth and lies and good and evil can be very illusive at times, but neutrality is something you can somehow always hold on to...
anyway, the point i actualy wanna make is: cliche's arent always a bad thing, there's always a reason why it sticks and why millions of people before me have chosen to work around the subject. In this case, i think it holds some kind of universal truth.

Thanks for the review, I'll make the next one longer and i'm glad you enjoyed it. ^^

i would have been more impressed...

it would have had a deeper meaning if they fell inlove insted of war....

Weenog responds:

I never ruled that out ^^ the two collide, sure. but it was kindof my intent for it to be unclear if this was truly a fight or if it was an embrace, i must admit the music does create a more treathening effect but it's realy how you look at it,
You see what i realy wanted is to have a duality not only in the characters apearance and so on, but also their motives. i wanted the whole thing to float somewhere between love or hate. Thats also why is chose the colour red for the flower. because red symbolises both love and anger.
The reason why the planet is consumed by the flowers near the end is becuase i firmly believe that there are two things that can truly create a new world... one being unconditional love and respects for all living creatures....the other being complete and utter obliteration.
I hope this awnsers some questions for you lot ^^

good animation but...

i didn't understand the story. if anyone understands it can you pm me?
