The Tale of Psyche and Cupid

This movie won 1st place in the audio visual category of the 2009 Ontario Student Classics Conference.
It features stop motion animation, stop motion, and film to give the video different effects as the viewers continue watching. A lot of time and effort was put into this, so I hope you do enjoy! =) and please comment and subcribe if you'd like too.

It was Venus that was jealous not Aphrodite..

@jesuishillary

well, Venus is Aphrodite. Venus is just what the Romans use to call her, where as the Greeks called her Aphrodite.

I know, but the video was only allowed to be 5 minutes for the competition. So I just kept in the part of the story that really inspired me! :) I felt like although this is not the way it ended, the way it does end almost seems like a "part 2" thing, In my opinion.

And I felt it was a perfect break point.

Actually Hera was the jealous one; Aphrodite (Greek name)/ Venus (Roman name) are the same deity..

Very good! The effects were fantastic, it's a shame that you probably didn't have enough time to do the entire story *spoiler* where Psyche redeems herself *spoiler*, but very good. I really liked Psyche's tear effect.

That was... Kind of depressing
