Reviews for "The Masquerade"

Interesting

I love how everything has a monochromatic color except for the markings on the masks. The story seems very cool and self-explanatory enough. I love the animation you do when you redraw each picture, but I didn't really like the parts that used motion tweens (example: the arms) and squeezed the characters around.

But I like its eerie environment, too. Also the music you made is very nice.

Creative work.

I'd really like to see this go on, possibly create a whole new series? It's a really unique idea, something I haven't seen in a while.

Personally, I think I'm just going to end up moving on to other things. I sort of feel that if I try to squeeze any more out of this idea, the creativity would be strained and the message would be lost. But I will make other things of a similar nature, not to worry :)

In most of my time on NG..

I've rarely seen a story of any value being told. It represents captivity that lives on in us, or the feeling that captivates us. We see it all the time: Kid is too scared to confess something. But this... THIS made an even bigger picture. To show we hide behind false emotions, hiding behind the masquerade.

Respect.

Wow.

I only wish you expanded more on this, like why they wore masks or exactly how many normal people there were. The fact you got this so well without any context or dialouge is incredible.

Really enjoyed it

I don't see videos like this very often and you told the story amazingly well with no words. Good job
