alethos for sure. That pic of the arm in HoJo's entry isn't even changed form the origonal picture. You can find the exact pic when u do a google image search. I'm kind of glad now that I didn't enter this one. Alethos would have beaten my entry easily. Nice work. It reminded me of the start of like Resident Evil or something.:)

Thanks Sintax.

I really love movie trailers. Most of the stuff I like to do is set up like a movie trailer or music video. Problem is, at around 18 to 20 FPS, a Flash movie comes out to a whole lot of frames when you have even a short 2 minute song to work with. I have a few projects that were abandoned after a few hundred frames. :)

Man, I got to say that, plz donīt get me wrong, but I find that movie way too comic. That fly on the womb... :P :P :P

The tecnique, the execution, the song... SUPERB!

Way to go alethos!

18-20 FPS, I use 40-50 for client intros, frames get kind of hectic when you have to refer to something on frame 1109 lol :P

Hi,

Shouldn't it be an option to vote for none of the entries?

Cheers

Hi,

I'm sorry if I sound weird or bad ( :bad: ).

I was just suggesting that option because even though I liked both entries as flash pieces. If I was to balance the good and bad things of the work (in both cases) bad things win. So I thought I'd like to vote but for none of them. I'll explain myself h88 :

I love the rough feel of Hojo's piece. Please correct me if wrong but my impression is that that wasn't the intention .

I like Alethos' alot as well if it wasnt for a small detail of 826K that over a modem (yes!, like in the real world) makes you dislike anything. That is if you actually get to watch it and don't give up before it downloads.

Cheers

Sorry bout the filesize, eki, but I asked originally if we had to optimize our files to speed up loading and I think it was Lost who implied that it didn't matter. Next time I'll compress a bit more. :)

As for the "Neither" vote option, I don't see why it's necessary. If you vote for the "neither" option, then it's just like not voting at all. Instead of implementing an option like that you COULD post a comment indicating that you are abstaining from the vote for the following reasons... That way the contestants get feedback (which is a helluvalot more important IMHO, than the votes) and can therefore better themeselves. That's why I participate in battles: to get better through constructive criticism and exercise. < /rant >

:moustache <---that looks like me, except I look nothing like it.

He did not state that it was scripted by him.

Ya but when ppl first started giving complements for it he should have said thanks i found it at ultrashock. You should always state where you found something like that if you didn't think of it. I doubt he is trying to clam it his own but you should not let ppl think that you made it.

When you put your name in the corner of a footer usually it should be made by you, unless otherwise noted!
