So finally I got around watching this.
definitely one of the best storytelling vids out there and has, especially in the end, an amazing sense for flow and such.
however, I have to point out that the quality is damned washed out and the masks mostly suck, since you can detect the edges very easily.
it might have helped if you added a rendered edge around the masks, but basically, you should do more curving...
but! the concept definitely makes up for all of these points. although I personally dislike the first part due to its cheesyness and the 3d animation doesn't seem too natural I vote this for ultimate win.
8.3/10

P.S.: add 'orginal 3d animation' to the sources
