Yeah it seemed like the joke was just too obvious, and the animation wasn't bad, but your style is very straight forward. I think it would have been better if the visual appearance of his tripping world was more vivid and hallucinatory, to highlight the juxtaposition between what he images and what's really going on. And things like disjointed audio, which I felt like it became when the Miley song was played, how about instead of jumping from song to song so quick, maybe you could convey the same effect with a sound effect? Like a gong, or some flash-back harp type of thing.

Thank you for your opinion :)
Now i work at another animation (completely different style), when I'm done i share my work.
I believe that new animation will be much better than that.

The animation was smooth and simple, but the humor fell a bit short. I don't know if it says more about your work, or about my own past viewing experience, but the comedic events never really exceeded my expectations of what would happen.

I will say it successfully straddled the uncomfortable line of "will he or won't he cleave himself with the axe in some manner," but that may not have been your intention.

Overall, good work on the animation and sound design, but try feeling out the boundaries of your humor more in your next effort.

Thank you very much for your feedback :)

such an appropriate wrecking ball soundbite. made me laugh. that's when you know you're going to trip your balls off. very enjoyable short, great work.
