It is beautiful

Wish I had the skill and patience/motivation to do something awesome like that
She is an animator for Wolf (
www.wolfmovie.com) Meet her at Anthrocon earlier this month too. She came all the way from Germany I believe.
First time I saw this with the sound available. Love that music, goes very well with the animation.

Whoa, that's great. I love the music too. It's been forever since I last heard it.

Nice, the music fit with the animation well.
Heh, the part where it showed both the front and back of the wolf at the same time almost seemed like a dance.

It's OK. From an animator's perspective it was very dry in the desgn area, and very stiff in the animation area. But as I've said before on many of my posts, I appreciate and applaud the effort.

I thought that was pretty cool, speaking as a none artist/animator.

The animation seemed a bit jerky, like there weren't enough frames, and there was a point where the background didn't move, which gave it an odd look, but overall a good animation, much better than anything I can do.

Well drawn, nice concept...animation's lacking. It's a good start, though.

I didn't really like it... If there were more frames and the background was more active and scrolling, maybe it'd be better.
But once i noticed the opening song to Chrono Cross was abruptly cut in the middle of the animation, i felt that the whole thing just went downhill. :/
What i'm worried most is the comments. There's just praise and worship notes instead of constructive crits. I'd give the creator a piece of my constructive crit, but i'm just not cool enough to qualify as an animator.

Keitsu if it dosn't look right to you you have every right to say it. You don't have to be an animator to think something doesn't look right.

Yeah go ahead and just say it.

I think it was nice. You have to take into consideration that it was done in only a month by a single individual. Sure there are some problems, but I think it's not a lack of skill, but a lack of time to refine it.

We don't HAVE to take anything into consideration...respectuflly Pariah. Rushed is rushed. Talent is talent. What we see is the end result of effort. Whoever did this animation has the opportunity to improve on his/her work after this. They could have worked on it until it was better. Fixed the timing...whatever.
Adding to the criticism..is it just me, or does this look exactly like the white wolf from Balto?

This person was under a time constraint. It was for a class.

Thank you SilverClaw an Pariah..Did anyone read the description besides the few that said something positive? Geez it says right in the description she was limited on time..You guys are just so read to slam someone because they aren't as good or better than you..It's silly..You of all people should know this Matt being an artist an animator yourself you need time to make something look right..I'm sure that will be the case with you as well should your movie start getting the attention you want..Geez..
The problem was time.. I had barely a month to finish this(and had to go to school too), so please bear with me for mistakes. This is nowhere near perfect but it got me top grades nonetheless
That's wat she said on youtube...give alil something to her for the great job she did in the lil time she had

Even the people on youtube insulted her skills..If you doubt them look at her DA site

Oh, well, excuse me for stating an honest opinion.

You have a right to like or dislike what you please. I am just pointing out that a lot of people seem to be approaching this animation as though it was made by a professional with unlimited time and money. Not all artists can be held to the same standard. Considering the circumstances, I think this person did pretty well.
