This is my entry into Avant-Garde.
When I first wrote the script back in June, I had no idea this would be an Avant-Garde entry. After I had gotten all of my voice actors, etc., I started to think about entering it into AG. I asked a few people, who all thought it was a good idea. I formally decided to enter this into Avant-Garde 7 days before the deadline, which didn't give me much time to animate a four minute film. I worked very hard for the 7 days, and although this isn't my best animation, I feel that this is one of my best films story-wise. Also, there's symbolism in this film. You might be able to find it. (It'll be easier for those who know the history of brickfilms.com ;) ) Please PM me what you think the symbolism is, and if you get it right... COOKIES FOR EVERYONE! :D
The reason why I entered "The Hero" into Avant-Garde is because it isn't like ordinary westerns. It's unique. It's an Avant-Garde western.
I'd like to thank Awesomeonomy, thefourmonkeys, Hazzat, Fancypants, MooCJ, my family, and most importantly everyone who is putting this contest on.
Enjoy my entry, which I put a lot of sweat and tears into.
