[BRAWL 2013] Outlook Of A Myopic
For a better cinematography and picture quality, please watch the film in Full HD.
This was my favorite entry so far. Awesome job, Loic!
Oh man, that was some amazing cinematography. Kudos.
Beautiful, Loic! Beautiful.
This film is really good, I mean really good. I love your interpretation of the theme so much. It's very clever and feels really deep.
You did a wonderful job on the selection of music, and the animation for such a big fight and also the sound of war is really impressive.
I applaud you, sir Strange Villain.
I'll try to remember to watch this on the TV later when I have a chance.
That was beautiful, your cinema photography is gorgeous and the interoperation was very good.
Very impressed.
Of all the entries I have seen so far this one probably best describes the topic.
Anyways, great animation, lighting, editing, and everything was perfect. 5 stars. 
Oh, wow.
Amazing job on creating and sustaining the chaotic atmosphere. It was beautiful to say the least.
Sure, there isn't as much story as many others, but what is here is very good.
I'd like to break away form the others and say that something just looks off. I think the contrast is a bit too high, but that may not be it.
Anyway, it's one of best that I've seen so far. Thanks for entering and making the beauty.
Thanks all!
I think the contrast is a bit too high, but that may not be it.
The high-contrast is an artistic choice.
When I saw some of your frames, I was kinda iffy on the high-contrast, but I like it in the entry. It's really stylistic and looks really cool.
Overall, this is a great entry, and I'm sure it'll contend really high up in the judging. 
The only thing that I didn't like was the man shaking, it ruined the atmosphere for me. Otherwise, the most engaging entry I have seen so far.
The lighting was really good. And the cinematogefy was really good. Not a lot that I didn't like except the dichitol zooms.
Really nice job with this! Very creative and also slightly avant-garde. I really enjoyed the sped up shots of the fight scene. On a side note, the camera shake looked good, but when it changed to being just still images of his face and the flower, it was a bit too distracting and drastic. Perhaps if those still images had camera shake that was a lot less subtle and smooth it would have looked better. Overall though, this was a nice short and a solid entry! I liked most of your color grading as well.
Thanks for the comments!

I understand your point of view, but the ''drastic effect'' was made intentionally. I wanted to show how
the main character suddenly stop worrying about the chaos.
I know some people may not like the style of the film, but the main subject is the Chaos, and I wanted a cinematography that fits to this idea.
Thank you for your really nice review!
Wonderful work Loic! This is a very impressive entry and I like how it fit with the theme.
Thanks for the comments!

Yeah, I totally got what you were going for in having the camera shake stop. I guess the main thing that I didn't like about it was the use of plain still images for a long duration. Generally it doesn't look good in a brickfilm. It worked though for what you were trying to convey, so perhaps I'm just being picky.
Nice film, really nice. Love the contrast in the frames, normally that doesn't look good, but it was awesome with this style of film. Nice animation, not perfect, but still quite good. Overall, one of my favorite entries.
Great cinematography, Loïc! You deserve to win! Good luck!
When I first saw the title, I thought this was going to be a comedy. 
Anyway, this is a great film. I really liked the premise (it was an interesting take on the theme), and even though the film was short, it was nevertheless effective. The cinematography was very well done, too. Fantastic work!
