Not bad at all! I liked how there was a mesh of animation styles, and the story was rather interesting while the art helped convey the message.
Reviews for "Mind Over Monster"
Definetly deserved to be in the top 5. Oh well...maybe next time.
The song played in the end in the credits by Man Duck was a jazz version of Ð'ÐµÐ»Ð°Ñ ÐÑEUмиÑ, ÑtеÑEUнÑ<й Ð'аÑEUон ("Belaya Armiya, Ciornij Baron"), one of the oldest Red Army choirs. I have no idea why. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The blend of styles was very bold and well done.
Claymotion, Jazz and that kind of free hand animation make everything a little disturbing and depressing. But I guess that was the desired effect.

Wow, that's awesome, I never noticed that. I think my composer was going for "Autumn Leaves", but I think you're right, the songs have that one really similar hook.
Cool! The best thing is that the switch between the different styles is fluently instead of an obstacle, if you know what i mean :)
I would love to see some more.
rather funny, seems slightly inspired by ugly americans
Detectonomicon responds:
I had already written and shot my movie around the same time ugly americans premiered. It's an awesome coincidence, I haven't heard the end of it though! lol.
