Well, i got front page unbelievabley!? and added to the brackenwood collection which i was totally not expecting! I still really can't believe it!!!
But as you can probably see by my smiley, i'm not elated..For once my animation had won daily 3rd prize and got front page, the reviews became very harsh and quite upsetting, saying it was a rip off of Adam phillips' animations, and i admit i have adopted many of his animating techniques and just felt i had to include techniques like the nats! i have learnt alot from Adam and am just using what i had learnt not exploiting it, Im a huge fan of his work and would never dream of copying anyone! partly cause it's such a waste of time! It's a completely different thing like it's about the myth of sisyphus not bitey! anyway i think that sort of critisism has died off now, and whenever anyone mentions Adam, it's only to compare and contrast not to try and put people off of watching my animation.
Though i'm glad that the majority of the people are enjoying my hard work or are leaving CONSTRUCTIVE criticism,
to those people thank you! i have only become ever more motivated by the release of this animation and i'll be straight onto more once i finish all these scripts for my series and stuff, l8z..
I'm gonna live forever, or die trying..

congrats! it was a really good animation. you did well to win the third, FP, and collection. keep it up!
although, you're using vista, so, so shameful.
You make me feel so so small....damn u Vista!!!!
I liked the animation, but the harsh reviews have a good point about the ripping of Adam's work. I understand what you were going for and that it wasn't intentional, but sometimes the harsh criticism is what you need to take the most attention to.
I think you'll learn from this and your next one will be that much better from the experience and the critique.
your right it wasn't intentional, and next time im gonna try going for more of my own style. The criticism is always helpful it's just annoying when people keep repeating the same things over and over.
well i have to congratulate you, you worked hard on that shit, the effort is very very noticeable. STILL, i cant take the idea out of my head that your sisyphus is just bitey without hairy legs, seriously. and when i saw those shiny flies over the tree, i said OMFG i saw this in the brackenwood movies. i know you love adam philips' work, so do i, but with this new movie, i see you as a chluaid wannabe :C
and having that movie in the brackenwood collection? what for? its not even brackenwood related, more than half of the stuff there isnt even related to the series its more related to adam himself...
well sorry for being such a bitch. im really amazed you did such a good movie at your age,, you have ALOT of potential, i just hope to see something more original from you next time, and im sure ill LOVE it :)
Originality is what i'm gonna go for! but the face of sisyphus to butey is totaly different the reason his beard is so high is because i wanted it to represent his eyes ect. I didn't want real eyes and it's based on an old sketch of the original sisyphus not bitey. The nats well that's actually a common technique not ripping adam off watch blamformers from tom fulp ect. and u'll see a bee animated in the exact same way!
Thanks for the congratulations!
i wasnt talking about how it was animated i was talking about how i inmediately realted it to brackenwood, maybe because i hadnt seen it in any other movie before, but when i see pretty dots moving around green leaves i inmediately remember brackenwood. im expecting your next movie soon, youre GOOOD :)
Thank you, i'll make it extra 'original' for you! lol
YAY ^_^
