Video Critique 13

http://lookslikegooddesign.com/animation-we-are-seventeen/

Cool combination of Vector and 3-d graphics. A surreal piece, but the 3-D and 2-d comes together in a beautiful harmony. The colors are great, and though I have no idea what the concept is, it’s lovely. The music moves along with it stellarly, and I find it almost essential to the pacing and feel. Hierarchy is great, the classical type moves along very waell with the music. I also love how it’s arranged in chapters, yet the transitions don’t seem wasteful, yet classy.

A great project that showcases both execution and creativity, with many elements coming together to form a truly abstract video. My largest complaint is that some things are pushed to be a little too shiny- as if they got overly excited with the lights, everything looks glossy. The textures are beautiful however. Great juxtapositions between timeless and contemporary styles. I also enjoy the inclusion of real footage (the arm).
