    Nice!
    But did not show "meaning of life" nor did you show blank ;-) Maybe you should have taken another title :-D

    Maybe you can answer who is "She"?
  • The idea behind that was to integrate and express the haiku in the video. We made it to be like that, because "She" was like a constant in his life, one of those major things, which happens and which cannot be forget as time goes by.
    The meaning of his life was to remember her and that moment.

    nice video,
    althought the tune is not by aphex twin,
    i think,
    just someone elses track mistakenly credited to him in the internets...
  • The track is as I've described in describtion: Outside - to forgive abut not forget.

    It was renamed and shared over the net some time ago as aphex twin...

    I'm really sorry for the last scene with a title of aphex twin, but I hope it won't be confusing for others after this comment

  • Steve Huedepohl 2 years ago
    Wow... excellent and very creative work, Vytautas. You are blessed with creativity.
    As for the subject matter, I would like to say that, for me, life has very little meaning without the God of the Bible. We were created in His image and He gives us purpose for this life and the promise of eternal life, through the price paid by His son, Jesus, the Creator of all things. Otherwise, we're born, we live for a little while, we die without hope...

    Well done...stop motion is an oft overlooked form, but incredibly effective and a pleasant assault on the senses...you used it well....covering it ALL from the humorous to love lost and "carrying" him in his elder years. The surprised "O" mouth on the kid made me chuckle.
  • Hehe, thanks. Well it was an experiment for us, we are currently working on another stop motion style based video.

    In overall the process and making of it is full of positive emotions, and mostly we did and doing so not only to produce a good product, but also to have a great time doing it:)

    very nice video, great work! Not sure how the title really ties into the story, that message didn't come across to me....still really appreciate the awesome work though!
