The Reward

The reward, is the bestest, most badass animation of all time and i love it.
  But in all seriousness i do really love this animation and i feel it has altered my philosophy as a person. The animation is about two strangers becoming friends as they go on a epic adventure in the promise of treasure. Though they have a rocky start they become proper bros and in the end when they finally reach their destination, they realise that the treasure was no physical object, it was in-fact the journey itself and how it helped them grow as people. This idea of growing as a person through travel is something i plan to do after university.

  Two key parts of this animation apart from the story that i want to talk about is the FPS and the world design.
  The movement of people seems to have quite a slow framerate, if i had to guess i would put it around 12 or maybe even lower. The fact that its low is not what interests me, its the fact that its still effective at conveying movement and emotions of the characters despite seeming relatively "choppy".

  The world design is great. It has everything i love in regards to art pieces; vivid colours with great contrast, imaginative fantasy design and an overall light hearted feel similar to that of Adventure Time or gravity falls. I particularly love the design of the vertical city, it reminds me of the descriptions of the cities in the Mortal Engines Quartet.

  I'D GIVE THIS ANIMATION A 235432/10
