    This animation was stylistic heaven. Despite all the variance and peculiarity I was still able to follow it perfectly, a test to how we consider cohesiveness in the illustrative world.

    I find the “are you okay? You’re like, really pale” “oh, yeah- i just look like this” part really funny because of how comically exaggerated it is but also because it reminds me of the “you’re practically glowing- maybe it’s just the lighting” part from fantastic mr fox, which is my favorite movie ever

    this film perfectly captures that quiet panic of your body being, through no fault of its own, suddenly unable to perform a task you desperately need it to. doing all you can to push through, despite everything and finding yourself completely destroyed on the other side. 'was it worth it? yes? no?' and a sort of painful satisfaction at having made it despite everything. amazing.

  • @pixxeldust
    @pixxeldust Год назад +1312

    Absolutely gorgeous. I can’t believe this doesn’t have more attention! It really shows why you shouldn’t push past your physical limits. The colours and shape make the whole thing feel very nostalgic, almost like it’s something you’re not meant to be seeing but you’ve found anyway. 10/10

    As a short film appreciator, this is incredible, but as an animator, it's *so* much more than that- you don't really see stuff like this every day and it's so refreshing to see stuff THIS unapologetically cool and experimental. The oversaturated colors, the orthographic perspective, wildly unique shape language, the music, down to the *frame interlacing*. These are the kinds of risks more people should be taking, and I want to try it for my next project now. I can't wait to see what you do next, whether it's your next student film or the next big thing!!

    This is absolutely beautiful! The colours are so vibrant, it reminds me of a hot summer day, and the paisley title cards add to that even more. Something feels very luxurious about it tbh. 1:00 reminds me of something you'd see in ancient Egyptian art becuase their poses are the same/so static and rigid (in a good way ofc!, I just don't know how else to articulate my thoughts). Really reminds me of Mritunjoy's Tradgicomedy and Howl's Moving Castle. I just love this sm :')))
