I don't comment very often, but this one touches my heart. The color pallet, the music, the repetitive actions reinforcing the mood, the characters personality... all reductive, fine tuned and interesting. I have a soft spot for this type of animation. More please. :) Bravo LFS! The only thing I didn't like was the 3D layer for the revolving door. I don't know why, but it didn't really fit for me (something to do with the flatness of it), it could have been done with a little thickness in 3D... but that's super minor considering the whole.

Coolest thing being that it's true to who Lifelong is. It's a prime example of a company being perfectly chosen for what they have to offer. Great work. This is a great piece.

I could quibble about some of the editing choices, but overall very nicely done. I like the simplicity and the subdued palette.

Yes graphic is simple, but explain well the concept, and color palette gives the sense of sadness of a mechanical world.. I like it.

The shot of the mechanised world at the end is just stunning. To carry a wonderful narrative with such a stripped down, abstract and considered style is nothing short of brilliant. You have to 'think' to interpret the situations and characters in this work. If you do you get a lot more back. I'd appreciate it if 'see more' who commented above could refer me to the college where first year students create work such as this...I'm going to enroll tomorrow! absolutely beautiful, best thing i’ve seen here for ages.

I thought it was very well done and told a great visual story while keeping a consistent style. As flat and mechanical as it was, (which was the intention) it definitely made me feel the message of the song. Great job. Great!
