Can't tell if terribad story or plot twist.
Reviews for "Dichotomous"
I've seen this story so many times and it's not even that great of a story to begin with. I feel this was only created to show off the animation and while it's fine, the people look rubbery and lifeless (No pun intended). They lack texture, they're skin tone is completely one color and that makes them very unappealing to look at. The rest of the animation looks very good though.
Okay, I'm probably just biased because I really don't like amateur 3D animation (for the most part), but I didn't like it so much... the design was very bland (the characters, cliffs, those clouds) if not cheezy looking. The story made little sense- I mean, she killed herself to be with him... so like, it just seems kind a silly to do that instead of trying to work something out. I did like the eyes though.
Don't take my criticism harsh, for I am no asshole by any means. So, without further or due, let me start with my review :)
I really don't see how this was featured because the "Point" of this video was hard to follow. I absolutely did NOT care about the relationship between them because their relationship was portrayed poorly.
The models are way too awkward to stare at. The characters didn't seem creative in any way. When creating a cartoon, you gotta make the characters look a bit creative to fit the art style. The art style combination does not suite the models, at all. Take a look at "A Nightmare Before Christmas"; the art style suited the models, right? So... your art style kinda feels like "A Nightmare Before Christmas." I think this animation would have been more interesting if it were to be a stop animations.
Next time, if you plan on revamping this, be sure you give it a different art style. Be creative, and remember that effects aren't everything (not that this had great effects or anything.) Keep at it, and I feel bad for you; you should have stood away from the debt bucket (college.) You could easily learn this shit independently within a good year (mastered.) It's a big mistake to go to college for art. As I always say, "If your artist looking for art school, then maybe you shouldn't be an artist." Obviously college isn't doing any good if you produce this. No offense :/
