Great short. The animation was perfect in my opinion. The art kind of drives home the theme. It could have used a few different angles to break up the visuals. A long distance shot or topview could have emphasized the loneliness of the journey. Presenting the protagonist in a close up and taking so much of the screen focuses too much on him and not on his plight. By varying the visuals, as you did at the end, it keeps the viewer engaged.
Good song too.
Reviews for "St. Stephen"
It was a very good polar bear walk cycle, and It'd have to be since it was your favourite/most occurring camera angle. IT was very enjoyable
dylan responds:
Thanks for the review! And yeah, I can practically draw bears in my sleep since making this animation. Quite possibly the single most useless talent around.
Great animation and I liked the song, fit together perfectly.
dylan responds:
Thanks! I'm also happy with how well the tones matched.
Very sad, but very beautiful!
dylan responds:
Thank you!
Animation was fluid with a few slight improvable points. Choice of music was superb to drive the message "home" of this music animation. Great work!
dylan responds:
Well, it was a music video, so it wasn't so much "choice of music" as it was "choice of visuals."
