    this is fantastic. I loved the green skull on the pirate flag. A nice nod to the live show.

    Loved it.

    I was wondering how fun it is to see how people get similar ideas at the same time because I made an animation video some months ago that has some very similar scenes (the falling through the clouds into the ocean and a space scene). But this video is amazing, keep up the good work!

    here is my video if anyone wants to check it out vimeo.com/5251521
