Lines In Time

This is a short film I made for my assignment at uni. The unit was called Lines In Time and was based around synchronising animation to music. The music I used is called Justice Day by Martin Werner.

Here's a link to his Newgrounds profile http://robomanus.newgrounds.com/

I went a little over the 30 second threshold :D The story is based around the world loneliest lightning bugg, a species concept I created for another animation, and follows his journey as he finds his place amoung the clouds. Theres a lot of love on here so I hope you enjoy XD

Just to clarify, he doesnt commit suicide. Without dying, he flies his way into heaven because the world he was living in was not a world he wanted to reside in. We went to live his days with his family among the clouds of the afterlife. No deaths except for his family of course.

Dude this was really good. I really appreciate that you animated the character at such a high frame rate without animating in twos as well. Really original style.

Beautiful. Better than some thesis films I saw at my animation program.

Story was a little vague towards the end. Was the whole film a dream and this is his journey into the afterlife? Did he fly into the sun? Did he go so high up in the air that he died? Less important, although maybe an interesting detail depending on how you tied it in, but you might even show how his family died. Just little things to think about - it still works pretty well. :)

Awesome! This was full of emotion and If you didn't get at least a B give your instructor a kick in the rear for me!
