wow Tyson Ibele has seen my short film and likes it!!!!!!!! YAY!!
Im just a big fan of your work, it's very inspiring to watch your stuff. I agree with your comments. In fact, my weakness in animation (and specially CG) is the fact that maybe i get too carried away with the things I just like to do (animate!!) and i completely lack of skills regarding other aspects (modelling, rendering, texturing, etc... and the worse but probably most essential to animate well...rigging!!). I sometimes wonder wether im doing the right thing or not
As for the plot being predictable...I wanted to make it easily understandable and sort of give it to the audience "already digested" so there was not any confusion...although i did some experimenting with the fast paced camera cuts which i admit not many people liked.
