Line of Work Mission 3
Hello, folks! I've figured that it's time for Third Mission of our saga!
Unlike previous missions, this will be about flashback memories and it will have less comedic events. It's about how Matt Davis have been recruited by Hopkins.

ENJOY!
And Who Kill
ChordC responds:
I’ll say it again:
Death of black stick man by a black stick man causes some random red stick man to have PTSD regarding the black stick man, resulting him to go on a quest to kill this other black stick man who caused the death of the black stick man
MariogD responds:
The full story is about “who kill” so it takes time until we will know. Next parts will be very exciting so be prepared!
Nice one

Thank you on behalf of the team! Thank you for your comment! Cool!
Another good one! Feels like some turns of events were a bit messier here, the red thread less clear, but such is maybe the nature of flashbacks... seemed a little strange for example that Python just asks one random pedestrian about the butcher at first, and then takes a Taxi when said pedestrian doesn't know the answer. Would've assumed he'd gone to the shop right away, or taken a taxi there right away. Also a little confusing how the butcher is suddenly called Yanni when on location, though he's referred to as the butcher initially. Little details like this seem like they could've been a bit more polished script-wise.
Otherwise I love the atmosphere in this one! It feels grittier, the black and white with certain flashbacks was a nice touch, the lightning's atmospheric - especially early on the lighting and transitions with each scene are so good, the soundtrack's perfect, the sound effects too - even that ringing sound right after a shot - details that really take some forethought to include.
Feels like the latter half or so of animation might've been a bit more rushed than the first, not the same attention to detail or atmosphere always, but overall this just keeps getting better and better, and what a twist at the end! Looking forward to seeing where this leads next!
Love the character introductions too. Seems like the show's getting started for real now!

Mejson responds:
Whoa, big comment! Well, the first part - interesting conclusions, it's possible that non-animators perceive differently and these are the consequences :P
Very nice ambience and writing even with just simple stickmen. The animation speeds up at the right moments of tension.
I think that if the names were color-coded with the stickmen it could be better!
