Mmm well
2/6
Your animation is good, but to be honest, there is not that much of a real new content to NG. Besides, I think you've watch the movie Amelie one too many time for it to be safe for your sanity...

Alright
Not to try to sound harsh, but it looks like you just traced a bunch of random video clips, put them together, and put a grainy filter over top it all. I can see your trying to be abstract, but you didn't go far enough. All those images were pretty simple and common metaphors for the emotions your showing. Also, if you wanted the clips to be watched in order put all of them on one reel and just have subtitles introduce the new emotions. This is good, but I feel like it could be better.
Not really my cup of tea
I didnt really feel much for this thing,I watched it through waiting for something mind blowing but it never happened.
Maybe its because Im watching too many fight animations(good ones are rare when you see a lot) or maybe its just my taste.
I tend to like things what are feral and angry,things with teeth for lack of a better term,not just some slug fest with unreasonable amounts of cheap fighting(all too common in stick animations).
I never did understand the essence of art even if there is a definition.
For me,art is something that invokes a thought or feeling,a visual stimulant(dare I say a drug) that brings you into a state of mind,a snapshot of a powerful feeling or thought stretched onto a medium.
Something that generates exhilaration or sadness or what have you.
Some people seem to see a film of quality.
I only saw an artsy fartsy piece of jiggly eye candy that smelled french.(not that I have anything against the french,but thats the stereotype ive been exposed to when coming in contact with french culture I hope you understand)
I admit I feel a bit calmed after watching it though,dunno why...
Okay I should stop pouring my chaotic thoughts into text,or maybe keep it up and understand myself a little better,my apologies if I sound like an idiot.
not really
hope? joy? fear?
No, it didn't look that to me.
It was just 3 experimental movies, but a bit above average well drawn.
Meh.
Well, yes. It IS animated. It IS well-animated. It HAS ok music. But is it "abstract"? I would say yes, but that is the problem. You WANTED this to be abstract, but it is just like no point in that. It is too much abstract. If you would have at least a simple "plot" or something, it would be better.
And about the "fear", it was a good rotation etc., but it was too long.
So, sorry, this really is overrated.
