Re: Victim

Well... not exactly flawless, but very, very good. The fight scene in the apartment had me stunned, and the pace was well directed.

Good job. Hope there's more awesome things to come!

Re: Victim

Great stuff. I'm always a fan of action sequences.
The legs into studs walk cycles don't work for me but there's so much to like it's hard to complain.
Well done.

Re: Victim

The free-running and gunfight at the end of the film were extremely well-done (though I'm not so sure about the running cycle), as was most of the lighting, but overall I can't help but feel a bit let down by the story.

I would really like to have known more about the inner workings of the crime organization the man worked for, and just what "information" the man knew that made him such a threat. Also, I didn't like how you had the boss call the target and order him to kill the man, it took away what could have been an interesting surprise in the story (and could have allowed for broader plot development). As a result, the ending sequence became kind of predictable and the target's revelation to the man came off as abrupt instead of an interesting plot point.

Technically the film is well done, but is somewhat let down by its storytelling.

Re: Victim

Just to start off, this is my favorite film so far this year.

The Good: The most important thing at the end of the day, is for a film to be entertaining, and this certainly was, mainly because of the quick pacing that moved the plot along quickly.  The animation for the most part was wonderful coupled with great camera movements that gave a good intensity.  You obviously spent a lot of time on your sets and they look very nice and add realism.  I also thought some of the cinematography and the sound fx worked quite nicely.  Basically, its technically very good.

Needs Improvement: The story was the weakest part of the film.  Like mindgame said, there needed to be more background info.  For example, the first free-running scene, is he being chased?  Is he on a deadline?  Or is that just the way he rolls... mini/sunnies  There were also a couple of jump-cuts, some awkward animations, and some of the dialogue was a little... meh. mini/rolleyes


But like I said before, I think the most important thing is the entertainment value, and this one delivers.  Great work! mini/smile

Re: Victim

mini/jaw Good film, great story, if a little bit predictable. Loved the line at the end. But the running needs to look more like running less like a sped-up walk.

Re: Victim

Thanks everyone, I didn't expect this film to be this good. I also agree that story is bad. I'm not really good at writing stories and I don't like writing dialouge.

Jus fantastic!!!!!! mini/jaw

Re: Victim

Woah, finally a film that I found myself acually relating to other movies. The sets were excellent and made everything look so proffesional. Well done! mini/yes

Happy THACing mini/sunnies

Re: Victim

I've seen something with a story similar to this, I don't know where.
But anyways, the animation was great, but you could've made the story longer. I was hoping for another fight scene at the end. But, it is still great film.

That was...amazing!!! mini/jaw

exactly what I'd say. But technically, it is purely impressive. It's a beautiful film.

Re: Victim

nice work mini/smile

Re: Victim

An excellent film, sets and animation were brilliant, but watch out for light flicker, it's very noticeable when it's in HD.
