Crazy for It

So here we are again with another review of Kubo Yuutarou's works..I am a fan of his works of art and This is the time for "Crazy for it" So I rewatched this a couple of times and I think I got the meaning behind it..unlike 00:08 this was a bit harder to find but In the end I give it an 8 and now you're going to find why: Story and Art(Because like his other works the "story" is told with art,images and forms...or I must say in Yuutarou's case with over the limits and with extreme liberty of expression) I have to judge story and art togetherand in this case I give those an 8.5 This is a short of 4 minutes telling the story of a man waking up every day and as he goes brushing his teeth we are suddenly transported in a very colored world with a very energetic music that follow our ride The man every day as he wakes up he think about his limit in terms of creativity and he wants to pass then..he wants to fully express his art...he don't want any restriction in his daily routine Yuutarou's works are all about creativity and themes surrounding it and In this case it is stronger than ever..I must say that if in 00:08 we have a soft but yet progressive creativity till becoming insane and disturbing creativity that is troubling and "eating" the man every day bringing it to madness because he has to constantly put out ideas..fresh and great ideas because he has restricted times..here we have a different approach..we have our protagonist thinking about his creativity in a "light hearted way" and he wants to improve what he's drawing..what he's animating everyday and to test different methods of art..to be sperimental..why? Because he wants the best out of his art..and every day he pushes is to the limits.. Infact we see a man running and constantly changing forms and colors..we have an interesting use of patterns and painting too..as we change background the techniques for drawing the running "stickman" are changing..and so does the camera shots.. those rotate everytime and the director tries to give us views from different places with different techniques In a general way though the short like his other works are done with these characteristics: Rough drawings and style that wants to put out a lot of things..speedy and dynamic camera that expand and give views from different places.. In this case we have even changing backgrounds and a large use of colors..a wide amount of them..I just love those..we have like drawings done with blu pen or other pens..and that style it is awesome What I love about this short is also the beginning with columns growing out of the ground..and Kubo's style in general to transform little things in bigger things By little things you can reach bigger goals infact The palette of colors is just so wide that I can't love this man Plus Animations and Art + Music/Sound: I give it a 8/9 the music is energetic and it fits perfectly what this short tries to convey to the viewer.. as the man is every day putting out new and creative ideas..what I love about mixing the music and art in his style is that the art follows perfectly the rhythm and it deforms. One thing to say about the art is the amount of things Yuutarou put in different frames..like the end part...he puts a big amount of different things..like planets..the moon...toys....and they alternate perfectly, they replace the original forms that delineate the drawing of the man (this happens even in 00:08) It is a very energetic rock music SPOILER AND INTERPRETING/+ SUMMARY So our man everyday is constantly putting out new and fresh ideas and he pushes them to its limits..thinking about improving everyday..till he becomes crazy about his passion and keeps sperimenting..in his daily routine It all started a day when suddenly an impulse appeared and you start to make your creativity explode The man that pushes to the limit can be interpreted in this way because he's not running in a normal way..his legs are pushed a lot forward In a certain point we have a use of patterns inside the stickman that he's running and not a normal stickman anymore because compared to the beginning of the short he isn't that thin..this represent the fact that he's improving and constantly trying to that.. The only part that isn't convincing me for now is the one with the drawings of the girl..but anyway..everything is deforming a lot and I love it Enjoyment: I'm a huge fan of his works..and If you read all of this you probably already watched the short..but I should say that I enjoyed a lot this short..I give a 8/9 for that Be sure to check out his other works..in particular 00:08 Overall: I give it an 8 maybe 8.5...I love this approach to creativity..but I think I prefer the one in 00:08 because he has a bit more to offer So if you want a very energetic short with pumped up music go for this and if you're willing to interprete it..go for it you want regret it Thanks all of you that you are still reading this review..and please bear with me my inaccurate english..See you next review

Vibrant, powerful, beautiful, colorful. It's a shame that people like the autor of this who proves to be crazy for it isn't and will not be appreciated, poor man him and all those who like him seek to come up with something special with animation (and have the capacity for it) in an industry with tremendous potential but whose audience only seems to value self-improvement stories for weaboos (I'm not wanting to attack that people, to each their own, but the effect they have). Go draw backgrounds for the new ultra popular anime series, it seems to be the only future you have, even marketing andadds value people like you more than your industry and its consumers.

*Disclaimer* Just personal scratch. Advised, possible spoilers. Opinion & Informal Art: 6/10 It was quite alright for a "super-short." There was a definite style going on here and it was able to stick to it most of the time. Animation: 7/10 It was noticeably good for a super-short and the transitions and overall fluidity of the animation was acceptable. Plot: 5/10 No plot. It was more of a mesmerizing piece? It had this air of meaningfulness that isn't really noticeable in other super-shorts.Development: 5/10 No development. Music: 7/10 Actually had good music for once for a super-short. Overall: 5/10 It was actually an entertaining super-short. I enjoyed this more than other super-shorts.

Rate a 3 art film (no vocals) Music type:Unclear, i would have to say interpretation. Story Interesting name choice "crazy for it". Am I crazy (enthusiastic) for it(this anime), nope. How come? With no vocals we have no words. With no words we have no guidance or being to explain things to us. Not that different than going to study hall. Yeah, we can learn but without a teacher who is say we are learning the right thing? Despite confusing to what message is being told if any there is proper follow through by referring back to the introduction. Art -mix between color and black and white - looking closely at theart one can see smudges of paint. Which marks hand drawn work rather than computer. Props to taking the lengthy/old fashion approach. - a lot of focus on a running character. Is it always the same one? What is causing the running? Sound -I am not musical wise. I believe the proper term is strumming when a note is being changed in tone. There is that and drum solos not much else. I find a good song to have proper tempo. Maybe a catchy tune. Or even some vocals. Shame none of those three were there. -the music for whatever reason jumps between left and right sides. Why? Enjoyment Art had promise. I am sure a message was there but just acoustics with no vocals or subtitles is not going to get the job done. Not one of this artist's better works.
