[MeAndFerret]

[XxPunkerkittyXx]

@MeAndFerret me too ;)

[rebekahirish]

Animation is what I want to do at SVA in a few years :D

[Chiyoko79]

So i understand....

Of course,i like it!

Honto ni sugoi desu ';)

[Chiyoko79]

What is the name of the piano piece?

Its amazing..!

[clario85]

@Chiyoko79 It has no name, I just made it up as I was playing. I'm glad you like it! that made my day :D

[kitten4me]

[AsianandBuddiesFilms]

[SaulFernandezPrieto]

Great work man

[tjmixmasta]

Absolutely brilliant. :D 

[FreetheEvilChubbyPig]

I am beyond pissed. I applied for this damn school and they wouldnt take me cause my high school had no arts class....That's the email I got... And now I see the beauty of SVA... And me living in New York..... yeah... beautiful 5/5 now I have to practice animation all by my lonesome at home on my laptop... T^T

[ELFUTEATRO]

i laughed so hard at the ending.

[geeknproud2110]

Very good. I've had a few short courses in Foley and Stereo Design. Bit of an audiophile myself. Can't stand compressed recordings :P

[PublicLibraryx]

thats sad XD but its an awesome animation though :D

[ZuzuCovert]

oh wow! that was....great~

[skatinghobart]

this is so amazing it could be a full length film.

itts a pre sad ending ):

[FidelityEverling]

awkward...

[TheUstinovich]

THAT SUCKS! I'd kill myself if that happened to me.

[Duii26]

This was AWESOME!!

[Animel0ser]

this is cool! i had my first day of school today at sva. after getting frustrated with a simple bouncing ball, i started to question if this was all worth it... but seeing this animation, it completely changes me. I guess the saying is true, "If at first you don't succeed, try try again."

[clario85]

@Animel0ser Thanks! It feels great to know my film gave any kind of impact to anybody. and I hear you, I hated bouncing ball XD

[ghostie7790]

@clario85 i'm applying to SVA. How did you like it? b/c im applying to their animation program as well

[clario85]

@ghostie7790 It was great :) make sure you know what kind of animation you want to do. (3d, 2d, motion graphics, etc). For traditional animation, it was great :)

[Nertrender]

@clario85 I actually enjoyed that ball. better than the sack

[AtariMaxiToriyama]

@Animel0ser If you are having trouble with stuff as simple as bouncing balls, I recommend going to SFDT and looking at some of the tutorials there. I can't draw for beans, but I have some EXCELLENT physics in my stick figure animations. You can go play the animations there frame by frame, and learn about follow-through and such. Good stuff.

[MarieTheMagpie]

I LOVE IT. BEAUTIFUL.

[johnnyTombstone23]

the sound matches quite well, are you also the Foley artist??

[clario85]

@johnnyTombstone23 I took a foley class, so I've done it a few times, but in this film, every sound effects were pre-made.

[NadyaLoca]

1:03 a 1:12 casi lloro

[FireStarDoink]

So touching... *sniffle*

[pillshere1000]

awesome

[ninjakittykatx3]

i was just about to burst into tears...but......

[morifangirl]

awe~! the endings so sad, but cute!

[GuitarsAndGlitches]

[CreatorOfCastell]

Wow the end was awkward XDD Really well done :3

[BasiaOwczarek]

beautiful composition and mood, but sadly unexpected ending, im touched..

[arieledwards]

This is really great man. that story had me at hello tell me that you do this for a living if not you should.

[JosephSeraph]

Sad ending lol. I shed a tear.

Anyways.... Really cute noses. >_<

[midgetman11215]

gotta love those new subway cars. You live in NYC?

[IndysBack]

Pfft at first he kinda looks like Harison Ford from that side shot of him on the phone.

[TheAnimefreak313]

Fail at the end xD

[PcazzoB]

lol, Fail and the end! :O

[janaltus]

Excellent animation, good timing and brilliant pace too.  Thanks.

[plung3r]

it was touching but then at the end it got Hilarious hahaha nice one dude!

[enocaw2]

nicely done, but hand drawing? is that really the only option for a artist when making an animation?

[dangerside]

make cry but the end was Funny

[Anime101z]

Very well drawn, twisted ending to a predictable plot, whats not to love? ;0)

[chaos9494]

You SCANNED those pictures into photoshop? You have patience the likes of which I have never seen or could hope to achieve. :P I almost went mad just taking pictures of the frames with my school's animation software in my last animation (And it's only 27seconds long!)

Good job, and that ending is hilarious.

[KirbyPwnz13]

[Naybas878]

[KareokeLuver]

[CharlieOK11]

My god...! This was so good. I liked the end, so sad

[qaz474]

I agree with Darkangel555. It was sad, but funny because it was so happy and then click.

Anyway, I think you should make a series of this on you tube.

[Kxela]

[FilmTraum2]

Super!Fantastic and great job!

[Ereldor]

Ouch!

[patronise]

If I had a hat I'd tip it. You got me on this one.

[deadpuppies109]

ouch, man.

your a sadist... just kidding. beautiful story anyways,

[metalclay]

very nice, and...lol, dunno if this is "appropriate" but- I could totally tell an asian person did this :D The story was reminiscent of miyazaki, and other asian toons I've seen.

The end was a nice twist...but, I dunno. I really got attached to the characters then it's like...yeah- w/e.

Haha, nice for the context though. as already said: lots of possibilities.

[clario85]

yes, I am asian, and I grew up in an asian country too. so I am well aware that my works give off that vibe. I constantly try to change my style and do something different though. I hope you find my upcoming films improved and not as biased. Thank you for taking the time to comment :)

[shortiexhodduk]

보고또보고...잼있는 storyline 인거같아... 참 잘만들었어요 ^^

슬프기도하지만 ... 웃기단 말이야 하하 and even though i watched it like 10 times already i still like this...

[VALENTINEproductions]

Dude you messed with my heart at the end. Great story. Great animation.

[Pretear666]

lol!

The ending was so....Well i didn't see that coming let's just say.

XD

Really cool though

[Loriana27]

This is great i can't wait to make a short. I am in my second year right now going to my spring term. Who did you have. I got Doug Crane. He is fantastic. Can't what to see your senior thesis!!! you are soooo great

[clario85]

I had doug in my second year too, and he's my thesis advisor now, glad you liked my stuff, your comments were very engouraging and motivating =D I hope I finish my thesis on time haha I was a little too ambitious..

[clario85]

i meant 'encouraging' :P

[Equus911]

Fantastic.

[eternal4v]

tear.....

[CiotkaKlotylda]

Nice story? Rather tragical.

[Tony0817]

LOL the ending was the best.. nice story and i like how you composed it

[cat22413]

I loved the story most of all! You have some great writing skills! Good job

[Paul186]

Lots of nice things going on. I like the train

going by. Some inconsistencies. She has glasses,

then no glasses, then hugged with glasses. her

facial characteristics  shifted to a longer face

after the hug.Still, The majority of the toon

has all kinds of possibilities. Thanks, I enjoyed it.
