Beautiful, hard work
I loved this, the pencil artwork is great and even though there´s no "plot" in orthodox terms, the message is clear, the two extremes coming together, the machine coming down, the natural being coming up from the earth, joining in a clear symbol: ying-yang, the balance, fertilizing a new world... beautiful man! great work
exactly... well put ^^ and thank you for your kind words.

Impressive sketches and drawings, very nice animation, nice little short story too! I guess we are left to use our imaginations on what went on after. Nice job representing embracing/fighting, love/hate, and creation/destruction. Yin/Yang is very represented in this flash.
balance in all things ^^
Artsy
-It's refreshing to say the least. Most animators have been drawn away from the classic paper and pencil art style used to animate. As soon as they were given the new fancy tools they slowly but surely started to completely abandon this way of doing things. It seems almost befitting that your first work would be created in this classic style as sort of a contrast to the lack of effort that most new animators give. Like you said, you have had an account for almost a decade and you've most likely seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. It probably helps that it was for school too.
-As said i'm quite impressed with how your first animation project submitted here is so good (score over 4 and daily 3rd). While the graphics aren't the best, since you had to convert the file and compress it for the size limit, you didn't need for them to be to tell the artsy side of the story. It's still possible to see all of the fine details that were incorporated and the little nuiances that can be discerned with some focus. Anything from flashy since you kept it pretty simple but it would of been completely unnecessary and would have created so much more work without earning a whole lot on results.
-You were also able to complete the package by incorporating sound into the mix that really complimented and went with the animation well. They definitely accomplished adding to the emotional side of the work and adding tension at pivital moments. It's definitely a work of art but some minor details brought it down( blurry, short, loops). I know you can't help the blurriness and the looping since you didn't use a flash program but I feel like if you could lengthen your work and add even more storyline it would improve it greatly.

Thanks alot man, this means alot to me.
I'll be sure to make my next one longer and look for a way to keep the quality crisp, aswell as adding a preloader and the likes.
cheers & thanks again!
i dont understand why nobody likes this.
i thought it was preety good just short. its kinda like how my mind works...... so yeah.
Awesome piece of flash..
I really liked this one. I'm a fan of penciled landscapes and whatnot.. only thing was, it was a little short. I'd love to see something like this about 8 minutes long. But yeah.. it was great, keep up the good work!
