Too dark, can't see anything

I'm sorry you're having a hard time viewing it. I'm looking at it now on a mac and it seems fine. My only beef is the really jerky stream coming from YouTube. I don't know if it's my connection (I have a T1 for goodness sake) or if it's  YouTube problem. I suppose I could try posting a more compressed version but then that will affect the resolution of the video. Is this a conundrum or a dilemma?

very nice, mainstream... Blade Runnerish (that's a good thing!)

hey mon, Looks good. What I like is the independent camera movement :). No anoying Pose-Cam circle moves!!!!! The video might seem dark because of the white, YouTube background. Also, the video does have stuttery playback which might have to do with their conversion software. I think they use an open-source program called FFMPEG to convert to Flash video on the fly and it may be having trouble with the latest quicktime codec (if that's what you've used) You might try rendering and uploading at 320x240 with an older, more compatible version of quicktime or perhaps Mpeg 1. Anyway, good work and take care jdc

Thanks for the suggestion, jdc, I'll try that over the weekend.

I'm getting what looks like 14-18fps through youtube and I have a very, very fast connection, so that matches what everyone else is seeing I guess. 

If it was rendered at that framerate, consider adding an amount of motion blur as that can smooth things out

Mac gamma is different than PC gamma (pc is slightly darker) - just FYI

I think you are capturing the grime and "street" of the city surface while contrasting that with refined tech and aesthetic at higher altitudes (ala bladerunner).  You might consider stronger color and shade contrast but I really like how the green-glasses character emerges.  If I just saw the green glasses at first in pure black, and then the face emerging around the glasses as reflections of light hit his face - that'd be cool.

Looking forward to seeing your next piece.
