Description
Theoretically, unless some form of self benefit arises from the expression of individuality (such as a sense of self worth, the gain of peers, work, money etc), then humans are reluctant to act in any way that may ostracize and differentiate themselves from the norm.Large animation is large
sorry dial up users
This is the DA friendly version of my uni animation assignment
When i say DA friendly version that means the major change i had to make was take out the copyright song i had used ("All my best friends are Metalheads" - Less than Jake) and replace it with another one. The non DA version sounds a bit cooler then this one
One of my more "epic" animations considering it's about 2min long and has title pages etc etc
and yes that is my real name stfu. IGNORE. IGNOOOORE.

It's funny because when he touches the rainbow, it plays Regenbogen, which just happens to be German for rainbow. I wonder if this was coincidence or not, hm~?

Well there was a reason for that ending, which i feel you may have missed the point of it

What was the reason for that ending?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The thesis for the animation was about individuality and a side of peer response to anything outside of what is considered the norm. The ending for this performed the duel purpose of being a metaphor for social treatment and also for explaining where the liquid might come from

Well, it's obvious that in reality you are just accepting my ideals without even realising it.

oh mah gawd! i was crying at when he died...cant people be unique?
and i never knew that ur a...girl!!! OMG! mind you, when i was on a school trip at primary, this little kid came up to me and said, 'r u a boy or a girl?' damn, are people really this stupid? sure, i hate skirts and dresses and hate brushing mah hair and playing footie with the boys but...I'm unique.
like this film proved...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Another thing to consider is that sometimes when people try to be unique they end up being part of an alternative mainstream. I guess the best way to be yourself is to just not try
Not many people know that lol

That was just mean.
I was grinning at the awesome
the cute and the adorable
and then gunshot.
Meany.
You could have at least made him go caramel dancing in the goo ya know.
T^T

That was the most realistic ending to this particular thing though lol
Just because sometimes different is better doesnt mean everyone else will accept it straight away!
And we had to make it with SBS in mind and freaky shit always happens on SBS XD;
But i'm glad you liked it...maybe until the gunshot part
