Sounds great
This sounds great as a short action loop piece. Don't pay much attention to benyue1978, below. He's just sore that his music was awful (he removed it due to poor review). If you take a look at his other reviews, they're mostly marked as 'useless', too.
Watch out with your staccatos/spiccatos - at some points they suffer from the machine gun effect. The drums could do with a little less treble at points, too. Other than that, really nice and would work well.
xD Thanks for the advice on benyue. A review's a review, I don't mind getting low scores as long as they point out how I can improve.
I did kinda overkill it on the staccato strings, will definitely turn them down a few notches next time. The drum sound has a pretty mid-frequency sound to it, so maybe the treble came from upping the velocity on them too much. Thanks much for taking the time to review.

Nice remake
There's nothing on Newgrounds that states 'originality required for a good score' or 'don't post remakes or i'll low-score you' - benyue1978 is just sore because his music was poorly received and most of his reviews are marked as useless.
I really liked the piece. The string samples are nice - what library did you use? Some of the notes drop off a bit quick later on in the piece, but I like how it sounds and the emotion was captured quite well - a little more dynamics and It'll be great.
Thanks for the review. I'm all for originality too but remakes here and there dont hurt. The strings are just titled Florestan Strings and they are fantastic. I know some dropped off a little early and I need to fix it. I'm still working on it. Thanks

Sounds great
I really like how it starts with the snare and builds up from there, and the part where the harp comes in backed by the choir sounds great.
If it's not intended as a mock up for a real orchestra to play, I'd recommend dequantizing the notes a little to make them sounds a little more human - real players never hit the notes on the grid lines. The dynamics also sound a little sharp on the brass at times - the long notes seem to instantly cut off at times.
Really nice work, though. Look forward to hearing more of your stuff!

Finally, someone who understands my work. Thank you for your kind words.

'tis awesome
this really reminds me of a friend of mine so im probably biased thinking it's awesome. i love some of the angles/shots you drew, and how the camera moves and the music fits with it well. it's short and sweet. i like short and sweet.

This is awesome
I love the animation and how creepy it is. The music works really well with it too :D If you'd had more time I imagine this could have been haymazing. Like someone below said, you should definitely revisit it if you ever have the time and motivation.
