Thank you.
Since im writing this comment..ive watched it about 10 times..
Pozdrawiam :)
However I'd also like to echo that the introduction seemed to set up the film for something that it really wasn't. It felt like the story was changed a quarter of the way through the animation process, or something.
The quote works wonderfully, but the other text in the beginning doesn't fit. With that sort of narration it feels like another outside observer is stating it as fact, which doesn't fit with the true nature of the plot. I believe there could have been a more appropriate way of introducing the film.
That being said, I really liked it and it's of fantastic quality.
You captured the inevitability of life and lengths we go to hide from it. Brilliant!
Pozdro!
It was a well thought out story and pure genius from Grzegorz Jonkajtys and his team in taking you literally to another world within just a few minutes. Even more so with the awesome quality and superb background score of the Animation. I have been inspired and this is definitely one of the best stories and films that I have seen on Vimeo.
Still a great animation by any means. And a huge congratulations to the creators for finishing this project... the work and craft is so evident and it's definitely a massive achievement.
I'm very glad you folks liked it.
infogen - yes, virus was in him, and he wasn't able to procure a vaccine. Guess what the virus was? :) :)
himself and others as almost rat like. It beautifully depicts
how unhinged and surreal his internal world is.
Love it! :D
It almost felt like a game at some point, but then I instantly noticed how much it reminded me of Schizophrenia, PTSD, and etc...
:: Lazy writing? Maybe lazy viewing, lazy understanding - ending is actually abit clever when you consider what the virus actually was. "It was all a dream"?? C'mon guys, you didn't get it.
::Grzegorz - Excellent creative work!! Thanks for that.
The ending was unexpected; a total twist.
Where did the inspiration come from?
CG are beautiful. The visual metaphor of the Virus and Cell, Boat and Island are brilliant and clever.
kudos
however, I made ARK in 2004 - 2007,
and I haven't read the Shutter Island earlier.
thnks for sharing
