Thanks so much Tom! That means a lot coming from you!

I'm honestly surprised there aren't more student films on NG as well. I had this film sitting on Tumblr and Vimeo for a couple years, and while they might get bigger numbers in terms of views relative to NG, they mostly just flew under the radar on those platforms when it came to the topic of whether or not anyone really cared about it.

And yet, when I was recently thinking of how I could give my film a proper showing, NG just seemed like a perfect fit. NG looks for finished animation (with a bigger focus on original work, I think), which most student films already achieve. It also helps that, while our numbers here aren't as great as they used to be, most people that do check out a film seem to actually care about what's being submitted and push for a certain level of quality in their feedback.

Whatever that level of quality may be, it just seems to be embedded in the culture here at this point, which is awesome compared to the free-for-all nature of most other platforms. It feels like I'm always being convinced on NG to make the best stuff I can.

ANYWAY, thank you again! I'll see if I can let some friends know you're looking for more student films on here. Dunno if they'll submit anything, but I can at least try to help spread the word and get the idea in their heads!
As for me, I honestly feel really inspired after seeing how Keev was received on NG. I'll be definitely looking into making some more original stuff. :)
