WHY. DO. YOU. GOT. TO. MAKE. ME. CRY

LMAOOO (thank you!!)
I'm heartbroken but this is so good😭😭
THAANK YOU!!!
This is SO GOOD! The way emotions are portrayed so perfectly, the way the music accents the animation, the design of his shadow and the water-eye-mouth creatures. Everything is so good. It genuinely made me feel for the poor old man. I genuinely wanted someone to go cheer him up, which speaks volumes for how you got me attached to a bunch of lines in under 2 minutes. Thank you for sharing this. I love you all and wish you a wonderful day.
WHAAT THE FX IS SO WELL TIMED , also love the character movement and action work :,)) absolutely
amazing first year film!!!
Tysm!! So happy with how this film turned out, the fx especially was so fun to animate!
This is so beautiful!!!!!!!! The b&w color scheme really accents the bittersweetness of this film and all the shots and compositions are sooooo pleasing to the eye! I especially love how you draw your smears like. Wavy-ish? It really helps convey motion in such a captivating way. ALSO!! The sequence at 0:57 is BEAUTIFULLLL!!!! I’m in love with how you animated the lighting bolt(?)!! By the way, I’m not 100% sure if it’s what you had in mind, but the scenes where the character with glasses lost their ‘star’ reminded me of Sky:Children of The Light :D your scenes are just as beautiful as they are in the game hsjdhsj Keep up the good work!
I LOVE SKY:CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT!! I wasn't thinking about that when I was making this film but maybe unintentionally I was referencing that in my work. I've played that game so much in highschool! And omg thank you, that falling scene was so fun to animate!!!
This is beautiful Jason!! So emotional waaa

The animation on this one is incredible!! Its just one minute but the journey feels like a feature film. And i like the message, i i interpret it as thinking back on times you regret. Amazing job!!
