She just has some bad luck
Reviews for "Mantaur"
LOL! Smooth piece of work dude! love the motions of the characters! feels real fluid!
horrifying
Awesome camera angles, splendid lighting, spectacular shadows, fluid animation, believable voice acting, terrific reactions, beautiful camera blur, astounding lip sync work. The "foolish girl with no ears line was priceless and earned a chuckle. Excellent work!
The idea is pretty cute, and I like the characters. Really fluid animation, too. The Mantaur was a joy to look at. The humor was actually pretty funny and I think the girl and the old man are a pretty cool duo. The writing could be a bit better, though, 'cause "Nothing you can do can escape Mantaur" is not a great sentence, both because of the two cans and because of the fact that what she does isn't what needs to escape, she is. The ending is also kinda lacking, I'd like to see her at least show up back home. The voice acting is good, especially on Mantaur, but the girl could be a bit more articulate at times. However, the biggest problem is the sound design. Some of the dialogue is really quiet compared to the rest and thus harder to understand.
Overall, this was like a fun treat, but there's still room for improvement and I'm glad you've learned a lot making it. I'm sure your next works are gonna be even better and keep improving on this!

Thanks for the review! It was my first time making a film so there's a lot i can improve on for sure! That and time limits didn't help either. actually the Mantaur part was a whole 30 seconds longer but juggling with modeling the background in 3d and animating the whole thing was pretty tough. Making a film is certainly something that needs to be honed over time I believe so hopefully I'll have more opportunities in the future!
