It would be hypocritical of me to say considering my last review, I really enjoyed this animation despite it's short length.
It was straight to the point, and had a rather nice pay-off considering the apparent simplicity of the title. I especially liked water's face when he reformed on the ground.
The animation I cannot blame you for whatsoever and it will not count towards the score. However I am curious of a few things. Where is god standing if he can look unto the earth yet there are pyramids about? Did he place pyramids onto the earth later? Is that where they came from?
What is in the background beyond the earth?
God served his purpose to the animation yet for some reason I can't help but laugh at his simple house in desert swamp-sky land.
It was just a pleasure to watch, and I certainly hope that you submit more content to newgrounds in the future. Perhaps even a remake of this when you are more skilled, now that would be epic. You could even have temples devoted to each element and their human worshippers in the future and have them fight once again and instead create the Moon (Earth and Air in particularly winning it out over water and fire) with the populace looking onward. Though I think that's a little ambitious if this was just for college. Give it a shot when you feel more experienced and see if you like it.
To explain my rating; In the grand scheme, this animation lacks depth. (Obviously, being just a simple fight between the elements and done on a dead-line for school.) Though I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I really hope to see more coming from you in the future and I appreciate you submitting your animation to Newgrounds. Thank you.
