Running Away - Vancouver Film School (VFS)

[flamer41]

This is my big brothers project when he was in VFS. He had some fatass books. I dont think hes ganna be working for the film industry. My brother & i are good at drawing & art too lol.

[MsAly333]

sequel, sequel, SEQUEL!!!

[RedTracour]

i wish the kid flew away in his airplane

[sofrshh]

this is a student sound designer's final collaboration project. the script was done by the animator. if you search the ORIGINAL copy of this animation (done by extensive studio) there were no vocals for any of the characters done by the previous sound designer, only sub (mouth animation seem to be unnatural). this student tried to lace up vocals just to show diversity (sound design wise) with his chosen visual piece.

[givuhcky22]

what a hideous kid....

[doommic]

everything is perfect , jz the character...

[skeeve55]

sound is perfect.

kids face and movement looks weird.

[mattjones07]

Ugh.. I'm sorry, but tires don't squeal on dirt. 1:51

[sidremus]

@mattjones07 actally they can if the ground is hard enough and the tires are moving fast enough

[GwrtheyrnRoane]

@mattjones07 Could have been the brakes making contact with the brake drums.

[MartyHITD]

@mattjones07 might be the strain on the wheels or the friction of the joints around the plane

[goodboy13b]

it would look really good in a movie like type

[ttuunnee]

Woow, it's realy good! I've tried animating in Maya, and it's a lot of work! Nice job :D

[owlr]

this is so good. i luv it!

[UnamedKing]

Love the action really kewl. For a second there I thought there were chimes in my room O.O. The president sounds weird tho.. he also seems to have no teeth lol.

[lilypad57]

the animation is likes sims 3

[Guardianwerewolf]

This was interesting, I'm not a huge fan of the people's animation, but the sounds were very good. It really drew me into the situation.

[rhaustein]

I totally agree

[mursalat92]

WHY DONT U GUYS TURN THIS INTO A FULL LENGTH MOVIE???? PLZZZ???????????? its freakin good

[xrabohrok]

the sound guy did ok, but he needs to learn that not everything on the camera needs sound.

[creativesomersault]

nice work .. i like the camera movement. the soldier at 3:16 walks a bit strange ;)

[gondra13]

I don't know why, but I just hate their heads.

[holasweety]

me too haha

[VitaNuovaRevolution]

@gondra13 Because they're faces are designed wierd and they misporportianal to their bodies. A normal human is about five or six from-head-to-shoulder legnths tall. These people are like four. Not that big of a difference, but man, you can really pick it out.

[nameno1elsehas]

@VitaNuovaRevolution not only that, but they are just flat out ugly

[tworabbitmoon]

great visuals...ending is good cos it leaves you wanting more!

[BlackzAngel]

Nice animation and visual effect! And the sound too..!

But the ending .....

[Ashnellamt]

i like it but you should change the ending

[TakeBackTheWorld]

He looks like Duke Nukem when he was a kid.

[miraculom]

movie sucks, but the sound was really good, and since thats the project, Im giving you 4 stars :)

[Angie686]

cammon guys...when does it continue ;):D:D

[bogcom]

what great animations, and what a stupid ending... NOo and then it cuts off? god damn it i feel like somebody ripped me off

[vas3a]

whoaa

5* & great sound . gj^^

[GreekAlways]

would of loved to hear it with surroundsound

[peacefulshades]

whoa!

[SAKUshikimori]

i didnt like the presidents voice

[AlphabetSpagetty]

its like a modern final fantisy intro

[jaflogger]

Would be god as an intro to a video game.

[AlphabetSpagetty]

yeah it actually would but what would the game be called??? hermm???

[star0shadows]

The sound was great. Only thing that didn't seem to fit were the sighs... they sounds a bit exaggerated :)

[mrbri9htside]

minus the facial features. visually, this is one of the best vfs productions i've seen :)

[BobTheHappyGoth]

well the facial animation along with everything bar the sound weren't done by VFS but were donated to them by ExtensiveStudios the VFS student Patrick Espiritu provided the sound for the video.

[XackBrame]

VFS > ExtensiveStudios

[Komihana]

there.. was.. no ending...

T.T

[AbcSchoolOfPolish]

Good job!

[lsxdashtwo]

there is something odd about the sound

[Hojasdepalma]

He is not doing the animation, ExtensiveStudios is doing it. He is only doing the sound effects and music and I think they are GREAT!

WELL Done!

[SpyroLUVA]

Really good! Will there be a sequel?

[sikyrace]

i think he likes really ugly people

[routhoula]

the faces could be alot better, but overall was great.

[jandjfilms4]

the lighting is awesome

[DOUGLA192]

Dang....This was kick butt! The faces creeped me out at some points but cool all together!

[darknidevle89]

did they make any full movie

[morfman1990]

no these are short projects that are made at the end of the class year.

[Buschelhase]

amazing

[errare21]

Damn!! 0.o the camera-moving is awesome!

[shadow13598]

honestly, the dialogue was pretty bad, both with poor voice acting and poor scripting. The visuals were awesome, except for a few models, such as the kid and the president, which just looked plain ugly and barely human. Still good work though, i'd give it a 4.3/5.

[69TmTulio]

WOW!

this is fucking great!

[lookleep]

Many people commenting seem to have missed the text at the beginning ... that the student only provided the SOUND to this piece. Visuals were provided by someone outside the school.

[lolluspingus]

"no, dont do it" ... he shoud've said something like "no, dont kill him" :P

and why the hell did they send hundreds of soldiers to get just 1 kid??

[emzirek]

Why the use of God's Holy name for that one shot? Was that necc? I think not.

[lapisScarab]

sound is good, except the voices

[gamer999banch]

Well, the sound, models and the light is great, but i dont like the faces and the animations of it.

4/5

[monkaboo]

I completely agree. Everything was great, but the faces and some parts didn't look right. The kids face gave me the creeps. Other than that, great job.

[mtchoong]

unclear storyline and awkeward ending...

[HunniPearlzz]

" What was the scene 4 minutes in?"

Good eyes!

I couldn't quite make sense of it myself, thought it was perhaps the boys own vision? Or just a shot of the helicopters and swat team etc???!

"Was that part necessary?"

They likely wouldn't put all the required work in if it wasn't part of their artistic vision and there fore, somewhat necessary~

[HunniPearlzz]

"Why is the kid flying a plane?"

Clearly, cuz it's something he enjoys, and its a good way to get away and feel free!! *shrugs*

" Why does he go to that old house?"

Probably cuz it was far away from where he lived with the president, plus it looked beautiful and serene. Peaceful

That's my guess anyways!

Perhaps the artists could shed more light on it all

[raWrfACed]

direction sucked

but hans zimmer? that's a pretty big deal.

[spewaysealat]

It was ok. Needs some work: 1. The kid is really ugly 2. What is the story about? 3. Is he really the president's son? 4. Is he a government experiment? 5. He showed somewhat above human reflexes. 6. Is he a robot? 7. What was the scene 4 minutes in? 8. Was that part necessary? 9. Why is the kid flying a plane? 10. Why does he go to that old house?

[happykid7984]

shut up u couldent do that

[madegg10]

ok question 1 does not deserve a respones.

Questions 2-8 are stupid. Did you watch the video at all? Or are you missing some integral brain section?

He was flying the plane to 'Run away', Obviously. And MABYE he went to the old house 'cause its where he might have lived 'before' he became an experiment.

Please, before you make anymore stupid posts trying to seem intelligent. Laern 2 h4XX moar pl0x.

[spewaysealat]

well...actually to tell you the truth...

you might be crazy!!!

Answer my questions exactly...

I bet you couldn't answer any of them

There was never a definite answer to anything through out the whole thing.

Many viewers have also commented about this, so I have no clue why you guys are even posting this stupid response.

[audionautix]

fantastic work. Maybe next time you could program the kid with some better looking teeth?

:)

[thecakebebake]

GREAT ACTION MOVIE! Shit story telling, action more than made up for it though.

[SayuriMCK]

That kid creeps me out! XD

[popaddict]

What's wrong with the lip sync?!

[listerfiend510]

wonderful composition, and audio i think the characters add their touch to the realistic environment

[timdehaan88]

Well done!

[mooxim]

decent sound. shame the animator ruined it with shoddy lip synching.

[usmanater]

The original sound is dubbed out for the students to add their onw sound to it. It is likely that the original lip sync was fine.

[mooxim]

Yeah you may be right. though the way those mouths were moving, I doubt it would have been easy to make them look good.

[usmanater]

I would agree, perhaps if they knew the original script it would be far superior to what it is now.

[usmanater]

This is why in studios the Animation is done after the voice talent,

[Hyperactivexp]

their mouth movements and the way the ppl looked was weird, but this vid was great :]

[littlejay123]

>.>

sound design again.....

[tmacc]

nice work

[blah97840]

i think some people missed the part where it pretty much says the person only did the sound

[mariotaz]

Keep it coming. I GOTTA SEE what happens next!

[shocellist]

This calls for a continuation!!! Awesome job.

[frido15]

i dont like how the charakter style is mixed up with the realistic enviroment

[stfumarevel]

sounds amazing.

[xanderex2]

the student only did the sound.

[Prolitiker]

fantastic!!

really well done!

[napolihuhn]

i don´t understand the story pls explane !

[DrownTurtleDrown]

this was fuking great the story needs to continue!!!!!

[rulix36]

so good but the face of the persons is very uggly

[lc666]

yeah the models are a bit weird =/

but I really liked it!

specially the light effects!

[Vinemaple]

This project was about the sound and music, and that's excellent! Some people should read the info.

[Philinspaces]

Ok, so leave us hanging. Gotta do more you rat.

[foxtoon]

I like to see more of the story.

[blt409]

he runs away and they nvr see him again

xD

[xaver54]

opportunistic

[sadapindo]

the human animations are crap... but further more it looks awesome!

[zARCADEz]
