Reviews for "Myth of the Ages"

V nice

Excellent work, simple but effective animation to communicate a tragically true message.
I have a question though, please forgive my ignorance, but does this have anything to do with the Maya theory of armageddon? where at the end of the fifth age (calculated to be the end of 2012) the world and everything that inhabits it will come to an end?

Archklaus responds:

Although not directly, it is possible. My animation is based entirely of of Hesiod, a classical poet. However, many cultures do share such stories so a parallel (although not directly influenced) is more than possible.

Good...

it showed alot of sin and how over the ages we seem to get worse but what you left of was that in a diffrent way we werent as Barbaric from the silver or copper age. i think u left out alot out on how we have improved. (Dont always look on the dark side or light side of life u need to find the Side inbetween thats what keeps it balanced)

Archklaus responds:

I couldn't agree more about balance. However, Hesiod's work, as well as similar recitations by other classical poets, are fairly dark and once sided. For example, another retelling of the same myth ends with a 6th age, an age of blood. This age is built from the blood of slain titans, and battles continuously into oblivion.

Cool

I agree with what 3V1L-G3N1U5 said and I also added this to my favs

Ps.: You hav e a litle bug with the preeloader. Maybe you put a stop in the frame to fix it.

Pss.: NICE WORK!

Psss.: Excouse if somthing is wrong with the language - I am german ;)

Awesome

It was brutally amazing. Despite the heavy tween animation with lack of frame by frame, it was awesome. Great story telling. You made our time look so insignificant, and put into perspective the loss and change of values. Amazing.
