Good work in the part of the camera effects and sound excellent animation!!
This is my first attempt at an animated project. Halfway through, I switched from using Photoshop to OpenToonz. Scenes were composited in After Effects.
A man wakes up, chained and naked in the woods. He's been left as a human sacrifice. He must attempt to escape the demon that chases after him.
A poll comics project: during the storyboarding process, readers voted on what happened next. Readers contributed details about the characters and the settings. Normally I turn the project into comics, but this time around I wanted to try my hand at animation. Characters who were based on reader input are put into the public domain (see http://www.pollcomics.com/wiki/doku.php?id=blood_opera for details- I need to update it with the latest character information).

You've got a very cool style. Good direction also.
Good one! Made me wish to see a little more before it ended, but it was an entertaining short to follow, specially knowing how the sequence was structured.
I do agree with some comments on the artstyle, I actually think that the sharp black&white style shown on the credits drawings (I think its an animatic?) would've been a more expressive style for the story.
The shaking camera was a good touch, but to me it seemed that the 'blur' effect was a bit overused, it works great on the subjective (point of view) takes, and when the character is just getting up, but then it felt a bit distracting from the action.
That said, keep it up!
great work
Good gob.
Thanks!
