Excellent artwork and flow to the piece...I typically just skim over collabs but this one...yum. And Prodigy as the music? Yah.

Are an ass. I hate things like that. But I give you massive points for the setup...it caught me off guard, and it's not easy to hit me with these :P

That was pretty nice, and an interesting premise too...I can see where that could be developed into a very nice sequel, although, the risk of it becoming alot like a scene out of 'The Matrix' is there...you would have to take some care on that. The fighting between Dark and Light could have been worked a little differently, while the gray background was a good element, it was somewhat bland, as there was no terrain and whatnot to work with, and given that there were mountains/grass/etc after Light hit the prism, it was too sharp of a contrast, in my opinion. Either way though, a very good piece.

my idea behind the terrain being there after the light hit the prism is that; when the light was separated, the world was also created at the same time. before that there was just empty colorless space i guess. Anywho, thanks for the review man! ;)

Not bad, a little on the short side...but the artwork was very nice, very simple but very clean. The music fit what I'm assuming happened very well.

And not in the bad way. Weird Al's music is so easy to produce these manner of things for, and there is really no way to fail unless you completely go completely off the topic...the only grievance I had was the outfits that all the people were in got kinda repetitive, a little more variety there would have been a little more pleasing to the eye...but the point got across anyways, excellent work!

That was an amazing piece...I really ought to pay more attention to this section of NG, there's alot of good stuff, alot of different perspectives on different things. That song is probably one of NIN's best pieces, it takes alot to really figure what is being said, alot of careful listening to the lyrics and the meaning behind them...and I must say this was an excellent take on it. Kudos to you for the piece.

That was a piece of art, I tell you. The graphics a bit hard on the eyes, lots of flashing colours, but a very unique way of putting that song from words to pictures. This one's going in my favorites, love the song, and love the flash!

I'm not typically one for serious-themed pieces, but I must say that was fairly well carried out. The biggest issue I had with it was the sound...most of the voices sounded like the mic was a bit too close to the speaker's mouth, and while in some places that worked out fine, in others it just didn't sound so good. Also, the effects when the rockets fired...just didn't work, changing that would add a bit to it. The graphic work was ok, a little more variance in some of the moving objects would work out alot better...the aircraft for example, wouldn't just roll and drop on a straight line, unless the pilot were incapacitated. Other than that, the storyline was OK, a little more development would work out well, although, I guess that's what the subsequent parts will be for.

In your description of this, you stated that you 'thought it would be a good way to show you what I wanted the musicians to do.' I can respect that, and for that purpose, you did a fairly good job. Stick figures, yes, are boring, but the point got across. But, on principle, owing to the fact that this is what you would have seen that song reduced to, I can't vote highly. The lyrics were intended to have quite a bit of feeling behind them, and they did, and while the end of the video did end up being a performance, the manner of getting to that point was more than just flashy lights and the like--the environment they were in expressed quite a bit. This video is a mockery of that, plain and simple.

I was so kick-ass at that game when I was little...it was effortless for me back then...
The only thing that I think is a little off...is the movement speed...if I remember correctly (which I may not), the guy move slightly faster than the enemies on screen...maybe something to look at?
