I really like the artistic black and white high contrast.  It rated very well
with me.  The bird motion was very well done.  The animation also fit the theme
very well.  Great job!

From tim_cutho@smileyface.com:

It's a very abstract piece, and the textures arte just so wierd because they
seem to sort of change between black and transparent, grey speckes and then
even chrome in some parts. I don't know how you did that, but it adds a very
abstract feeling to it.
The bird flight animation is nice and fluid, and very realistic.
I you don't often see too much abstract like this in cg, but I like this one a
lot :-)

I love the 'old movie' look of the title credits.
The over all 'look' of this animation is very appealing and beautiful, a real
artist feel.  Bravo!
Wonderful camera work and bird movement... you should consider trying to
incorporate more of a story in your work, give it some character.

I really liked this one. My favourite. Excellent on the art work - the black and
white, the stripey texture, the bird movement, and the camera movement. It had
a really good feel to it. Nice idea at the start as well, in the grass.
The only bit I didn't like so much was the shot of the bird flying into the
camera - it didn't quite fit so well, IMHO.

Incredible animation. The change to slow motion, the landing on the telephone
pole, the rustling of feathers after landing; all were awe inspiring.
The black and white was very artsy and bold. The texture worked very well to
bring out the shape of the object. Very well done.

Stunning work. The choice of black on white was a good one. I would expect to
see a longer version of this in the animation festivals or on a show like
Exposure.
