Reviews for "Crestfallen (Concept)"

An inspiring preview of things to come! Serene sceneries, masterful melodies ands what seems like the premises for a grand adventure. Do hope this amounts to a full feature! And that Google Earth thing was a fun little detail. :) Good luck; looking forward to the real thing!

Glad you like the video and the fun little Earth thing! I thought that'd be fun for folks to explore a little bit and see that there's majestic landscapes right here in our backyard.
And the melodies are thanks to the excellent composers attached to the project. Give them a look sometime! Thanks for watching, and I hope someday more can come of this concept!

Now that looks to be an incredible series!!!!!!!

aggimajera responds:

Hopefully sometime I can deliver something more substantial to y'all. The Reward was a definite inspiration about whats possible in animation. Maybe someday I'll find a way to get this told in more depth.
Thank you for watching!

Honestly this is such a leap in animation compared from Overseer that i am shocked, and the story seems just as interesting.

aggimajera responds:

Thanks! "We've gone a long way haven't we?"

I paid extra attention to giving the character life, not just making her a black cut-out with a voice. It's less lengthy, but I'm glad to see it paid off with people. And the story would be a pretty nice one. Has traces of anime films with the grit of "No Country for Old Men", few lethal firefights which feel heavy and permanent, self-hatred and discovery, humorous lulls and exchanges, and exposure to a culture whose origins reach back many millennia.

Maybe someday!

Great submission, can't wait for the whole series. Only thing I would suggest is maybe louder and clearer dialogue but I'm an anime fan so I'm use to subtitles so keep it coming.

aggimajera responds:

I actually received a similar pointer from a friend. I'll be sure to address that next time.
I'm an anime fan too and definitely looked at many films to keep the drive alive.
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the review!

Okay, you may find me rediculous but anyway, I will write my opinion here. As indigenous Siberian I do not support curent political way of de-Sovietization in Russia(but the kremlin supports). This movie contains too much "cranberry" that means that story will be not realistic.
About "cranberry":
1) In Soviet Union and Russia ordinary people can't take/buy assault rifle. Only criminal scums have access to such type of weapons. Also, the military and police can have such guns too but the story is not about them.
2)That strange words on the wall. Yes, it seems too much patriotic. (sarcasm) I mean that everyone shall write on the wall word "Хуй" (dick). That word means how much people hate everyone and everything.Yes, we love Motherland but when people go into battle they use mostly strong language. Not only "мудак", the other strong words from obscene language supposed to be here.
(/sarcasm)
3) That story is based on ... your fantasy? No realy! Nation/peope (not government, but it other story) want to separate them from country. If someone do not want to be with us like abiding citizen he shall go somwhere else or shall be kicked out from country. We suffer from our criminals and we don't need other people's outlaws.
4)The word "негр" means negro... The "black guy" it a Black Overlord.

Remove pootis :-)!

aggimajera responds:

True about the weapons and difficulty attaining them, good sir. I took that into account when I formulated her backstory. She was released from prison and has history with many personalities within criminal circles. Thus, in the story, she would have known a way to get access to an AK-47.
And yessir, this is a work of fiction set in a real place. And the opinion of the locals would definitely be taken into account if I were to have made this into a film. It's somebodies home, and may would not tolerate this sort of situation in their own back yard. It'd be a definite factor for all parties involved.
I always love hearing of how things work on the other side of world!
Thanks for the insight!
