Quite artsy and interesting...
The only complaint here is that there's no music during its entire run: I understand your intention to respect its theme but perhaps just a vague music or something? That would have been more interesting!

This is a short clip about technology and the way it affects communication (project from uni). Not trying to be preachy or anything, just questions whether our generation is less charismatic than older generations? don't get me wrong i like technology (hence flash video) but i do think it changes the way we interact with people. anyone agree?

Wow
I like how you proved your point. This one made me think a lot about technology. Thank you for this. I also loved how you put in the words. Do more please.
nice
im alone because all my friends are asleep and its midnight so =P
other then that nice tweening and it is a message that many need to sit and think about
" Well-crafted evangelism. Now back at ya! :) "
I've given this an eight because it's well made and uses the medium of animation to effectively communicate something.
That said...
This movie is preachy and more than a little judgmental. If you are the type who enjoys technology and uses it a lot in your daily life, this film will probably offend you. Personally, I feel the arguments it makes hold about as much water as a course sieve. There are many, many forms of communication, and I feel that to brand any one of them as "bad" or "less" than the others serves to disenfranchise the people who use it. It makes no sense to me to reject any one mode of communication as that places a filter on the people with whom one can communicate, and the ideas one can receive.
I realize that this may have been what you were getting at by nagging at us techies to go out and talk to people (You assume we don't? How presumptions...). However the tone of your film simply comes off as self-righteous and more than a little disrespectful.
I didn't "blam" this film. You made a good flash and you have a right to express yourself (using the very media you are dissing, no less). I didn't "silence" you. Do not presume to "unplug" me.
Hm.
Really interesting. Nice flash, and slightly provocative.
But you can't deny that technology has made making communication, and retrieving information a lot easier. Especially since you're sharing your message on a multi-national entertainment site.
