I've divided feelings about this one. It's ugly, messy, beautiful and awesome at the same time.

Some of the effects and objects, like the organic stuff, are fantastic but I dislike the music and how the effects and scenes appears in this weird show.

But, anyway, I'm impressed.

Chaos Theory meets Slyspy's crazy world. Awesome visuals and style, but the music didn't fit these scifi-scenes perfectly. The soundtrack is not as crazy as in some of your previous demos, but still a bit too crazy for these futuristic visuals.

Was okay, just a little bit hectic. Babylon 5 called!
rulez added on the 2010-08-08 02:59:33 by leGend leGend
I like the start, with the sun coming out, the sea, etc. I like the visuals in some of the scenes later (the cloudy stuff especially). At some points though it felt like it was just switching of random scenes to the music, like some parts were harshly put, but the very good visuals I described save it and it's a thumbs up for me.

Very good 64k. Immense particles and post processing. Loads of energy. Messy though. Looks mfx-y to me (not a bad thing). I like this as an invitro. No details just "Function X"...treats audience as smart enough to use web browser afterwards. Yes, BoyC rocks again.

Make this a thumb because that's really massive. But I'm still not caught by the flow. :-/

The beginning is really the best past part, and the volcano is epic too. But in my opinion, the fast parts don't stand up to the slow paced ones in terms of design, and the creatures don't stand up to the rest of the visuals.

Fine achievement! The only minus is the spiky-ish/tentacle object used in many of the scenes. But the other visuals are definitely fine.
