BiM 2010: The After Life Experience (Page 1 of 2)

Some of the effects weren't great, like when the flowers fell down you could see fuzzy edges and stuff, but the animation was good and the story was interesting. The goofiness of how he "died" was my favorite part.

Nice job!

Thanks, bro. And yes, I do need a new camera.

Here's my response to your points:

Spoiler (highlight to read)1, HE WAS DRIVING REALLY FAST no I'm kidding, it's just usually when I get an idea I just go with it without asking any questions, which is something I probably should do in the future, ask myself how realistic it is that the situation could occur in real life. I'm glad you pointed that out.
2, I guess you could say he got a tour.
3, I expected people would come around with this question. Where he was was neither heaven nor hell or limbo, he was in a place that's just another interpretation of what the after life could be like. So yeah, it's just another idea.

The excellent lighting is worth mentioning as was the animation. Quality of animation is often overlooked in the judging but it scores big points in my books.  The scene in the house at the start was very fluid and believable and the lighting just made it better.
It did look like you rushed it in spots where the quality dropped.
It's a shame you ran out of time. Perhaps the last Tim and Fred release could have waited?

Overall it's a brilliant entry. Fantastic work and a very enjoyable film.

Fantastic lighting, brilliant animation...

bad camera.... grrrr...
But seriously those technical qualities were brilliant. Now onto the story...
I liked the concept of the story, but the whole things pacing seemed way too fast. Normally when you see a 4-5 minute brickfilm you usually think it's pretty long, I found this blazingly fast for some reason. Maybe dialog would have given it a bit more length to it. All in all, I liked it a lot 4/5

Very well done!  The animation was quite good, as well as the idea.  However, there were some things that bugged us.  For example, the camera quality and the flickering of the chroma-keying was a bit annoying.  Other than that though, congratulations on a great entry!

What were the first two best entries?

Huh?  What entry was that?

But he hasn't even posted his yet, has he?

You might want to submit this to the Avant-Garde contest, because you haven't.

Just fyi.
