I love your use of motion in this, and your lyric ties are sooooo sweet (and so in-line with the movie). My favorite bit was probably the flight of craziness on the guitar solo followed by the look on "hey" at 1:50ish. Just so perfect.

It gave me feels for reasons movie-related and otherwise. Saving it to rewatch from time to time for the non-movie-related reasons.

I love the way you've used motion in this. It's fabulous to watch.

I'm so glad to see more HTTYD vids! The movie's very visual humor and epic flying sequences make it eminently viddable IMO. The song worked really well and I liked how you re-told the story. Favorite part is probably the little nods over "Hey" right after the bridge. So cute!

Awww, I love this vid! You capture the character so well and set up a great narrative structure with him struggling in the beginning and with the help of his dragon, finding his confidence and happiness- the lyrics-clip matches all fit this so well. I looove the fast intercutting at 1:28 and I LOVE that bridge with all the motion-y flying shots, it's such a joy to watch. Love that quick tail opening at 2:17 and then coming out of the water to the music, I feel so uplifted there. And the ending credits shot is soooo perfect!! I adore it <3
