One Step Ahead - The Art of Speed

[@kimchiman1000]

Yeah, there's a message, but either you get it or you don't. I got it big time. I'm SLOWLY learning to slow down and smell the coffee, (or pick your cliché). I'm also slowly learning to drive AROUND the red lights (using side streets), rather than sit, wait, rush, and then sit again, while everyone else catches up to me again. But one needs to memorize which side roads don't have road dividers, etc. This is a brilliant piece of work. I hope to see more like it. Great work, guys!

[@TheOrangeNinjaTurtle]

THAT GUY IS A BEAST.

[@ClovisV]

This is prbably the fifth time watching this video, and it still hasn't lost its appeal. I absolutely love this one!

[@pingu079]

I think this is excellent commentary on the existential issues that confront modern man, especially in the context of an urban setting. Brilliant! Kudos to what's his name!!!

[@amarubay]

This should be retitled..." The Common New Yorker's Commute". Geez, I could relate to this too well. Just seeing the emotions animated was wonderful. I love your work!

[@Crazycardfreak]

I can so relate - it's like deciding if you should wait for the train to pass or turn around and find an alternate route...hillarious

[@DallasMcNeil]

patience may be a virtue but this guy is gonna stay fit for life...

[@yamgemy]

Genuine appreciations for both idea and form!

[@teambronski]

Thanks for sharing your creation. It makes me smile. Love the editing as well.

[@Buthyful]

I loved the idea of this movie.. totally awesome.. Thank you so much for sharing such creative video :-).. its simply PERFECT!

[@AndrewnourseSUP]

Awesome rockin theme, style, technique and overall feel!

[@jomo6778]

I also like the suggestion that, even though everyone gets to the same place at the same time, the "main guy" would rather do it his own way; he would rather exert himself for no particular advantage just to be moving at his own pace. Particularly the scene where he boards the bus, and everyone takes out their phones; the music is distressed and you can feel the claustrophobia.

[@KairiHawkeye]

Okay, that was a catchy blur... And he's really ahead. One step ahead.

[@discombobulated101]

excellent! my 70 year old mother thinks this was me.... keep up the good work Stefan

[@Fischlaender]

very nice work, nice music, 5 stars

[@izaza6969]

Awesome vid, exciting till da end.

[@lala78outgoing]

wow...this is really creative, i think its saying dont rush things because it will always catch up with you!!! : )

[@lionshazz]

well made vid! why didnt he just run to work in the first place though? hes hella fast!

[@DrMattDestruction]

ugh, so awesome.

[@ladobleatv]

¨Modern Times¨. Nice work!

[@Thijsterhaar]

Haha, that guy sure has some stamina. I do like the idea behind the video :)

[@pexton]

I LOVE this. I LOVE the song too. Where can I get it?

[@bluesnow89]

this is so true same thing happens when i speed down the highway and when i finally reach my exit, people i flew by couple of minutes ago are right next to me :O

[@Acquiescence80]

Very Creative and well done

[@DavidWilsonHolmes]

Judging by the comments made which I highly agree upon maybe the working title of this work should have been `the futility of speed in a modern world'. The main character never seems to get ahead of the pack no matter how he tries. However it still remains a very creative piece of animation only that the original message falls short of the mark thats all.

[@kevinl920]

Wow, what a devoted worker he is.

[@FPVsean]

teh funny thing is, people are saying i wish i was that fast (below comments) and yet the people the man is trying to get ahead of, are right there infront of him at every turn

[@cycostinkoman]

that was awesome...you got skill!

[@BriannaTerese]

Great concept!

[@Jetiexperte]

cool, really cool, nice work

[@Altertoriel]

Nostalgic.

[@kimjae19]

[@joelog99]

[@PallaTheDancingCow]

[@onidog]

Very nice animation!

[@Saturno5]

Increible!

[@magicalmax1000]

I can relate to this guy…

[@wrigleyjock]

that was amazing to me! why does this have so few views???

[@samigraceday]

If I could run that fast, I would just run home! :S

[@fobdaddie]

Amazing!

[@sadaf_26]

wonderfully done :) What program did you use to make this?

[@keldorm]

[@MeecroSkills]

great job very creative

[@climid]

love it!

[@juanadrianoestevez3912]

GENIAL.Meduna velocidad...

[@DiBaozi]

This would be even more awesome if this was the creator and these were the images of people he knew in real life (his coworkers or neighbors).

[@WorldIndustries555]

Those...those freakin eyes...they just stare you DOWN...I..Im starting to see them in my sleep...its freaky

[@djarchetype22]

excellent vid man, congrats

[@ClayAlchemist]

HAHA, awesome. I'm working on some stopmotion too right now.

[@gavzey]

[@calahan59]

at the beginning te music looks like donna summer's song. Nice video

[@kkjell]

Chicago? Amazing! Way to rep. You guys hear of Columbia College?

[@TRASE666]

You know what? your right. a couple of years ago, i was sitting here on youtube and asking these questions. i didnt know anything, but now - im a movie maker, and owner of the big Ukrainian-Russian comunity Tetris-Inside. im saing this to people (about their questions) becouse i KNOW, none will answer, so they better ask it on forums or somthing, and here, they are wasting their time, waiting for answer.

[@Bozothcow]

2:40 looks like it's straight out of some zombie movie

[@BlueTropX]

What software does he uses to do this? After Effects, Flash, what?

[@kbaldeo]

way cool!!!

[@lk0056]

How do you make the guy run fast and motion blur?

[@deezsleeves]

awesome

[@BillyTheTapeworm]

This is why I don't change lanes on packed interstates.

[@ThamelasStormrage]

Hurry up and wait!!!!!!!

[@Huttersvuur]

Very-Very nice! 5/5! I would've given you a 10 out of 5 if that was possible. ;-) Max rating anyway. Keep it up! your a pro

[@bwworld]

LOL! Reminds me of my old commute...

[@Gibbo690]

@jwpierce07 Im just stating he wasnt going fast ENOUGH, if he was faster he would have caught the train before that one, the bus before that one and the lift before that one... your theory is based on only going a little faster

[@sdmitch16]

Why did he wait for them to arrive before he turned on his computer?XD

[@VideogamerGal]

the fast guy is the only one not drinking coffee!

[@JGProductions6581]

Awesome though. !

[@WojtekHopla]

its so true...

[@learnmyname123]

....Sweetness

[@cubamaze]

[@iwashko]

[@highexposure]

so much for technology, he does everything on foot

[@gabrieljose24]

Trata de reflejar lo inutil de la velocidad en algunas circunstancias. Al fin y al cabo los demas llegaron al mismo tiempo que el.

[@mykani]

story of a commuter's life

[@SoulFlyer133]

so he ran all that way just to turn his computer on first?

[@liamv1998]

those people have creepy faces. But what can I say I love creepy faces. good work!

[@ClowdyHowdy]

@jwpierce07 This guy is going to be in a lot better physical shape than the rest of them If he keeps this up.

[@lilRadRidinHood]

America runs on Dunkin' (I'm giving up coffee from now on...)

[@CanalFredelico]

[@ShaaneOh]

[@XrainbowXcookie]

[@TheHiroyukiutatane]

Well at least he has better legs than the others.

[@TheChosenOne1997]

WOW hes fast!!

[@chukfunk]

maybe next time you spend a bunch of time and energy on a project like this, you could pick a subject or plot that might evoke emotion, so as to be called "entertainment". Cool faces though.

[@simonova90]

This reminds me of Lasse Gjertsen (KZbin: lassegg) Amazing job :D

[@chidunI]

this is so funny!

[@sandre137]

hehe! entertaining!

[@erikdakid09]

[@kbaldeo]
