yeah..
it was beautiful and all, but god it left me frustrated too. I would love to see it in >>FWD too, but I'm not sure. I would have liked the speed to differ throughout it too.
But that's just me. I'm not sure what you're trying to communicate, but I'm pretty sure I missed it. That said, excellent animation, music, feel, and storyline (I think). Something was just missing for me, but I'm not quite sure what. Great submission though.
