Wow, short but sweet.
Must've taken awhile for just 34 seconds.

Good work. I was not expecting that.

One of my favorite videos of the year, and unlike what most people are saying, the fact that it felt like a tv commercial made me like it even more. I wanna get me some friends now. :3
ps - I saw this BEFORE acen. What now? :O

Hmm. It's one thing to say this was too short, and you should have explored the concept more fully in a 2 minute video. But I also think that in it's current form, each shot could have gotten way more screen time. It's a shame to see all the effort you put into scene, yet not have enough time to notice and appreciate everything that's going on before it cuts to the next "colorful memory". So I loved the concept, and technically the video really is superb, but the pacing just seems off.

Still, 4/5.

And you should write a compression guide before you write a masking one. You pretty much ridicule everyone on the org in that category.

the length is about right for what this video is trying to say, at least conceptually, but the text went by a little too quickly, and a little hard to read in some places. I had to replay it a few times to read it all ;p


That being said, that was some of the cleanest masking I've seen in a long time. :up:
