    A really absorbing film (sorry!). It's so beautifully crafted, every shot has incredible depth, texture and detail, and brilliant sound design by Joe Tate. It's also a fantastic simple thought-provoking story. Inspirational work, thanks for sharing it David. Can't wait to see more of the work you create with Moth & Studio Aka.

    That was brilliant. I love the look of it, the mood and the texture in the artwork. Great concept as well. I got super excited when I saw the trailer a while ago and the final film did not disappoint.

    This animation is lovely, but rowing doesn't work like that. You have to row the boat facing backwards to use your whole body to move the pedals, the rowing sequence just seems awkward.

  • Moth plus 9 months ago
    Ha ha ha, great thanks.

  • Ryan Gillis 9 months ago
    Really really beautiful. Every once and while I'll find an animation that shocks me out of a rut I didn't even know I was in. I know I've got a long ways to go, but this animation just reminded me of how high the bar actually is, so thanks.
    How on earth did you create the weather for the storm sequence? The ocean with ripples and drizzling? It looks CG but there's an organic quality to it that's really confusing me.
    Keep up the great work!

    this is beautiful! I'm also wondering what software you used. Looks like it was composited in After Effects? I'm most curious what program you make the drawings in before compositing..
