Fun poem and idea marred by other elements.

I liked the poem at the start, but felt the graphics and the remainder let it down.

Your trees were nicely visualised.

The loop being on for so long kinda let it down though. I mean, where the poem talks about the nine creatures, maybe show them clambering around the trophy. And when they start singing Hakuna Matata, I thought it was gonna continue throughout the song and would have given up on it had it not been an RRC request.

I'd suggest you don't implement that song, unless you were gonna have the beelion dance or something.

The end kinda works well - those scenes at 1 frame a second are quite dramatic. When he finally gets the trophy though, as a moodshift, maybe you could have tweened him going through the cave?

I watched this last week and still don't know what to think of it. I love mixing animals together and your poem is cool. But so much brings it down that I can't really say I liked it overall.

I strongly encourage you to keep realising these ideas though. Look forward to seeing what you can do after garnering more skills.

Hmmm

The alright but needs some work.

The graphics at first glance were good. But after about 5 seconds I began to realize that it was just gonna loop over the poem thing, good for what it is, would've liked to see the movie mimic what the poem was about.

The audio was ok, badly recorded voice, so you need to improve the recording of your voice. The song was cool, brought back some memories and fitted on well.

Overall you need to improve the finished product, but you're half way there. A decent job

Pretty Good!

Nice and smooth, good concept and good animation as well. The only thing I can think of that needs improving in this would be the graphics, more shading, more detail, other than that everything looks great, keep it going!

-cd-

Hmm

Hmmm i didnt quite get this at all. Very random! Beelion, Blue Thing, Song, Stuff. Thats about it! The graphics were ok, backrounds need work though. The animation was alright even though it was scarce. Sound also ok, except the first voice was kinda echo-ey.
Not bad.

mystifying

What is happening here? We are introduced to a creature called the beelion, and some other blue creatures who apparently live in a cave. There is Hakuna Matata, a problem-free philosophy, and then there is violence and death, ending in a trophy awarded to the beelion. This movie treads heavily on the absurd.

Perhaps this movie was created in response to earlier reviews of A Thousand Frames and A Thousand Two Frames, which suggested introducing a narrative next time. So here we have a narrative, of a sort, and even a character arc: the beelion emerges from obscurity to triumph over blue creatures, congratulations! And there is still randomness, because I am still confused.

I feel the crude quality of the animation is less effective now that there's a story. The animation of the beelion's mane suggests that it floats around the beelion rather that it's attached. Comparing the relative motion of the stones and the trees suggests that the rocks are somehow skipping along the forest floor in the beelion's opposite direction. Then what are the blue creatures: animal, people, or monsters? Their combat is implied with a series of still pictures. Earlier when the author did purely abstract movies, it was possible for me to interpret the crude art as appropriate in context, but for this movie the author clearly struggled at the limits of his ability.

Thanks for making your best effort!
