    This is All-some, It's full of motion which is really coooool. I like the music in it too. Now all I need to do is learn how to use blender so I can do cool stuff like this.

    Dear Oscar, this is an amazing short movie, and having in mind that it was done by only one person makes it even more of an achievement! I think that you should write a short note about it on blendernation and Blender Artist Forums that would generate additional publicity.

    Thanks for your work, Oscar! The black and white and gray colors, (with the red at the end,) made for a neat palette. However, it was hard to see black colored characters because there was a lack of contrast at times. The music was also quite repetitive. The simplistic, (and sometimes flat) style is also interesting. Bravo. Thanks for all your hard work!

    Cool. I was waiting for the online version of this short. A few comments, sometimes the music is a little bit repetitive, some borders of the models have a little saw borders (low poly), I like the style similar to some CN toons. Congratulations. ;)

    I downloaded the original divx as I love the animation and wanted to watch it over and over. Unfortunately the music goes way out of sync. I think I got download errors but I'm hesitant to try again as I have slow internet and vimeo doesn't allow resumes.

    Is there any chance someone could host a torrent of this so I could repair my file. (This should be legal as Murnau the vampire is under a creative commons attribution license: freewebs.com/murnauproyect/)

    just a little thing that bugs me, don't know if it's only me, but the sound is delayed. Great work though!

    ^ Apparently I'm not the only one, the sound runs about a second behind the video. This may be a factor of Vimeo, or you may want to resync the film. I dig the choices for sharp contrast, but clear (realistic) reflections. And the music is a good fit for the mood.

    I really like the video. The editing makes the style of animation work well. You have talent.

    Not sure what the problem is, but the audio is about 20 seconds behind the video! Really makes it hard to follow since so much of the story is told through the sound effects and music.
