BLOOD AND SAND!! the beginning made me jump, theres almost a hole in my roof. Still nice after. You can only chase a dream for so long, and sometimes the dream isn't what you expected .. Reality has to be mean more.
Caught me by surprise at 0:33. The film took me from bewilderment to enlightenment. It makes you think. It makes you really look, at not only the film, but also yourself. Life takes us through so many emotions. The highs and lows. But a little bit of love and compassion, goes a long way.
What a fabulous film...it allows me to feel the joy in just being loved and that all important hug! May seem small in gesture, but you’d be surprised what it does for ur child. Stop, take a moment and hug your child. Thank u....
Loved the animation and the storyline. So hard to pack that kind of sincerity, emotion and interest into such a short film but these writers managed it all. I feel as if I just watched a Grimm fable! Anyone know if this was based on an ancient legend or myth? It has all the elements of one. Powerful. I love the optimism, the temptation of the darker side of human self-destruction and yet, the ability for each of us to choose something higher and better than what might have been driving us for decades. I love how the quietness of love and light can so profoundly change a person in ways they might not have even noticed. So much so that it has managed to save them from their own demise. A wonderful success in a beautifully packaged film!
Fantastic...... Thank you VERY much for taking the time to make that.... Thank God..... Finally a happy ending..... That's all each of us needs someone that we care about and someone that needs us (smile)
Hello my name is Damaris from Chapter One Academy. I loved this video because it makes us reflect that we should not hurt anyone because everything can go wrong.
+M Bertolotti funny enough my first time watching it i didn't even notice that cuz i was zoned out for the first minute but then i hit replay after seeing your comment and it actually got me lol
Hello! my name is Guerrero Michela from chapter One Academy My opinion about this short film is that it is really good and entertaining. I really liked the development of the characters as it was at the beginning and how in the end they came to be fond of each other. The big hug we saw at the end was very emotional and it teaches you the magic of love.
this is incredible ,just love it ,i have watched about 15-20 of these shorts today and this one is by far the best one yet , visuals are on point and has a great plot/story as well, BRAVO !!
Reminds me of a little cottage I lived in out in the country, in Southwestern England. Old and weathered, but with the character of hundreds of years. The man that owned the farm so similar.. now back home in the states I think of that place from time to time, in such an amazing setting. My own home in the country for decades now, a reflection of where I was there
this is a great work. it tell us that we should not to ignore the people who really care about us in front of us! At the same time ,it also said that the when the god close the door, maybe sometimes it has openned a window for you! so forget the sorrow, ,the sunlight shine you!
dir funny I see ur point. But UMN Mode is right. Some sorrows never leave. They just get less over bearing. Like an old wound that leaves a big ugly scar!
... Hey I almost watched Every 1one of these animation Movies ;-) I have to admit a lot of these are better than what I've seen ( ON television ) ... ;-)
Amazing short film! I have been watching this film over and over again and can still not believe how such a simple setup (on the beginning surface at least) can evoke so much emotion. Of course we have the end twist and we have some non-linear story-telling here that made it more enjoyable from my perspective. The main-character is very much alive, not just concerning the technical aspects of the modelling/texturing/animation parts but the way the character is *expressed* in the story. The sudden *surprises* in the way she handles her enemies, the *attitude* she displays on screen but more than the main character herself I think Scales is the greater part. The film gets much better to me when we see Scales for the first time and the ending is just mind-blowing in the way you have staged the action. It's really impressing visually and Scales looks like something from a large scale hollywood production to me. I mean it's "Avatar" quality here almost. Still "Avatar" was a little less interesting from a story-point perspective because it was less original I use to wonder "what if you had had a huge budget making this film into a large scale Hollywood production?" Much can be said about the emotion in the film but the way you convey emotion in the film is impressing in the way I as a watcher feel much but it doesn't feel sentimental at all. I still can't figure out how you did that but therefore it's more fun to watch it multiple times to learn! If you feel like it check out and comment on my own computer animated film "Alien Forever" here on RUclips about a young woman partaking in an international war in the future and picking up odd insights on the way. ruclips.net/video/9p9wMVGhBKE/видео.html
Thanks for making me choke on my cereal at the beginning. Was all set for a lovely, peaceful fantasy short only to fail at eating my breakfast at the first spoon full due to unexpected creepy skelly face XD That said, this was a beautiful animation. Thank you :)

That first jump scare was Freak me out !
+Ultimate_EX Me too
ha same!
"Jump scare? Ahh I bet it's not that HOLY FUCK!"
+Ultimate_EX JESUS
Same xD
Even adults need this type of fantasy to come out of their broken life...totally loved it....great job
BLOOD AND SAND!! the beginning made me jump, theres almost a hole in my roof. Still nice after. You can only chase a dream for so long, and sometimes the dream isn't what you expected .. Reality has to be mean more.
I agreed and as a father(me) who is missing my daughter this short has hit home. Beautiful.
I'm sorry for your loss.
@@darmuslives4340 I know it's late but I just had to say thank you.
So superior, never cheapened by sexism, beautiful, captivating, engrossing, heavy, poignant, oscar level acting (voice over) Thank you for this.
WOW, incredible. Better then a 2 hour movie could've done.
Wow, I can't believe one person animated this. Leszek has got skills!
So sweet ... bitter over a loss then pursuing his loss in a dream but wakes up from the dream to realize the opportunity to love again in real life.
That was by far the most emotional animated film I have ever watched.
You don't have much of a life , do you ?
The beginning seems so "gnome/spritelike" and then BLAMMO!
Best part of the entire short.
Caught me by surprise at 0:33. The film took me from bewilderment to enlightenment. It makes you think. It makes you really look, at not only the film, but also yourself. Life takes us through so many emotions. The highs and lows. But a little bit of love and compassion, goes a long way.
this movie has deep meaning...people so busy but their dream but actually reality is more beautiful than a dream #wakeup #present 😸
what world do you live in where reality is better than dreams...?
@@kurocrow-chan8880 ..... But they work. So yeah, people use them.
What a fabulous film...it allows me to feel the joy in just being loved and that all important hug! May seem small in gesture, but you’d be surprised what it does for ur child. Stop, take a moment and hug your child. Thank u....
Great. The music was perfect. When he peeked into the attic at her sleeping I was touched.
Perfect tale. Not preachy or overbearing and full of truth
I don't know about "for kids", but this was the perfect Cliff's Notes to an opera . . . which is perfect for an animated short. Well done.
This is the first movie that I have seen with out reading the comments and I am glad that I did 🤗

I agree...amazing work
This was an excellent short, and the animator did an excellent job of portraying the emotions of the characters. Great Job!

Hello my name is Damaris from Chapter One Academy. I loved this video because it makes us reflect that we should not hurt anyone because everything can go wrong.
I had forgotten I'd watched this several years ago. Glad I came across it again. Well done.
This was a wonderfully magical video, filled with emotion. I hope that I can find more that you've done.

"Beautiful fantasy animation for kids" yeah right XD with that thing in it.
j30296 I just jumped
That was scary. 😫
Yes, those sorts of sudden unexpected scares on film can cause an internal physical reaction which could prove quite fatal in some cases.
this is incredible ,just love it ,i have watched about 15-20 of these shorts today and this one is by far the best one yet , visuals are on point and has a great plot/story as well, BRAVO !!
The cliff scene got me! Well done

AAAWWWWWWWW. THAT WAS JUST SO BEAUTIFULL
One of the best! My heart was in your hands!!!
