@00:37weee! going upside down, awesome.

~Postmandaddy Jun 1, 2008

@05:03Nice expression on his face, makes me think of annoyed that he was put in there, perhaps tired, and wary.

~kray01 May 3, 2008

@05:29Amazing work with so much time put in, but a small thing once again, his bread bag is upside down. They are just a bag with a large flap folder over. The webing connected to the D rings, would hold the mess kit and or canteen.

~termagen Apr 30, 2008

@03:34but yeah i have to agree with the comment about the light falling across his face...

it wouldnt fall across his face, it would light up certain parts of his face and throw the rest into darkerness..

~termagen Apr 30, 2008

@03:27i love the way youve shown light falling across things from the flashlight!

its different

~Animelover112 Apr 19, 2008

@07:42WOW! i love how this looks! its really realistic!

~GabbyIsMyBestFriend Apr 19, 2008

@07:00WOW this animation is awesome!!!

!Metroid48 Apr 18, 2008

@07:13This is one of the moments where the blur-lighting really works well.

And I third the motion (any better way to say that?) that the floating dots are really atmospheric.

~Psotek Apr 18, 2008

@08:26Wow awesome, glad you enjoy it.

~kiyoshi-aki Apr 14, 2008

@00:55Oh yes, not only that but the characters, textures and overall feel (and look) of the world was incredible!

~Star-gazer35 Apr 13, 2008

@05:47I am soooo creeped out...can't wait to see where this goes!

!Metroid48 Apr 18, 2008

@06:40No kidding

~Calimarigirl Apr 13, 2008

@06:54Poor guy. That does NOT look fun. >.<

~Calimarigirl Apr 13, 2008

@06:13OH NOEZ!! =O

~ignavius Apr 14, 2008 Professional Photographer

@04:23Very cool

~seanichu Apr 13, 2008

@02:40I like his big red nose.

~RAGDOLLSAM Jun 4, 2009

@06:02HAHA!! just what I though!!

~CirionVincio Apr 13, 2008

@08:38the speed of ascent was very well executed

~CirionVincio Apr 13, 2008

@08:18some pebbles or rocks tumbling down the pile would finish this shot nicely, as opposed to just somehow being absorbed into the pile.

~LittleLottexo Apr 13, 2008 Hobbyist Writer

@06:20_{It reminds man lot of the Pale Man from Pan's Labyrinth. This is absolutely brilliant...}

~SupaKillaD Apr 13, 2008

@03:02The sound effects are well done, but i think theres a bit too much of it, whenever he steps it sounds like a saw cutting through wood, and i dont really get it, but maybe tone it down just a bit. But the visuals and facial expressions are really good

@00:11Dziekuje bardzo!

~Azzen Apr 13, 2008 Hobbyist Digital Artist

@03:10I have to agree.

~stns Apr 13, 2008

yes, this would fit quite well...better that "Wir haben ein bischen Zeit."
But also this would not mean anything with "killing" as implied by the subtitles.

~girlangel18 May 1, 2008

Thats pretty crazy and creepy. that would make me nervous. But it is kinda cool too.

~NightArmie Apr 9, 2008 Hobbyist Photographer

@01:13Cool!

~themasterpyro May 11, 2008

Right away no. But over the course of time yes.

The Legend of Borutaby ~Psotek

Film & Animation / Animation / 3D / Fantasy

SYNOPSIS

The year is 1939; Nazi Germany has recently invaded Poland, and many small towns and villages have already become victims of the German raid. A regiment of Nazi soldiers arrive upon a small church nestled in the sprawling wheat fields surrounding the small town of Leczyca. As they enter the church grounds, a low-ranking soldier is ordered into the catacombs deep beneath the church to search for valuables and items of historical and cultural significance for appropriation. Reluctantly, the young soldier heads down, and discovers he has been tainted by the stolen goods, further building the Legend of Boruta.

FILM DESCRIPTION

A short film (approximately ten minutes in length) centered around Boruta - an archaic creature who guards treasures deep within the catacombs of Poland - as he is confronted by unwelcome visitors during the German occupation of Poland amidst World War II. "The Legend of Boruta" is an animated grad-film project by Bartek Nowakowski, completed in April 2007 at the Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design (Vancouver, BC). The concept of the film is derived from an old Polish legend that originates from the small town of Leczyca, Poland. The town - consequently, also Bartek's home town - though small, is saturated with old churches, cathedrals, art, architecture, stories and legends, all of which have inspired him to create his first film, The Legend of Boruta.

The Legend of Boruta by ~Psotek Wow! Watch this everyone. This is the kind of films we want to see here on DA! The backgrounds are like paintings, so beautiful. All the lighting is amazing. I really like all the little particles inside of the temple. I particularly liked the effect on the soldier at the end. Congratz! :clap: ( Featured by `feawen )

Wow... just wow. I can tell you I was just waiting for something to happen, holding my breath actually. This was amazing and even tho there was no talking except for the little bit at the begging the story lacked nothing.

~happyhannah31 Nov 11, 2012

Great! Check out the short film "Dark Horse", it is absolutely amazing! [link]

~Luzur Oct 25, 2012

i find it more strange that they would send a lone soldier, unarmed, into the catacombs for the whole night without any backup or anything.

could have been polish soldiers hiding down there, or partisans.

normal behaviour is to sweep the catacombs with a patrol and secure it.

~Hiniaa Oct 15, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

@08:52omg, zarąbista robota! Super zobaczyć w ogólnych popularnych tak dobrą, polską robotę ;__; meh so proud
