West Chicago

Animation

Entry Description

When an ordinary girl drops a flower to the ground in this stop-motion animation film, she begins to receive extraordinary messages from nature that point her heart in the direction of unexpected love.

Judge 1

Positives: Great story, very heart-warming. I love the use of natural materials as messengers. The walking sequence was particularly nice.

Improvements: It was a little unclear how the flower ended up traveling. I actually ended up figuring that out from the title info. Perhaps a little more plot development would be good. Not much aside from that.

Judge 2

Positives: well thought out video with the order of information. music was a nice backdrop for the information.

Improvements: maybe have music change a little bit in certain parts for scene transitions.

Judge 3

Positives: It is a very fun idea, nicely developed

Improvements: The piece calls for more animated parts... The flower could be a bit more expressive...... I do not feel love expressed between the main characters.. the ending feels undeveloped
