A visual masterpiece
The animation, character design and backrounds were all sensational. Better than anything I've ever seen on newgrounds before. It amazes me that this isn't up in the top 10 with tarboy! This is definitely getting much less recognition than it deserves. Hania's music is also amazing, and I can't say I've heard this darker and more expressive side of her music before.
I will say the story could be worked on. Granted, it does leave some space for interpretation (perhaps not enough - interpretation is limited considerably by the broken storyline in this movie) but there wasn't enough info in the animation for the audience to fully appreciate the themes of the movie. I may be wrong here, but something tells me that the ideas weren't fully perfected (there were some pretty big differences between the animatic and the final draft, and I'd imagine after all the hard work you put into this the last thing you'd want to do was perfect ideas in the storyline). I realise this is unfinished, but even the animatic seems a little ambigious in context.
It's an 10/10 animation, but overall it could be a sensational film. It definitely beats everything on here visually. Amazing work! I look forward to seeing the finished version, if you plan on making it after tarboy 2 :)
