Wow and you did the cutscenes too? that's a very good job.
Actually the music is the only thing I didn't like in the trailer, not dramatic enough.

Well it can be considered as a more "techno music" style rather than the "drama-hollywood" style of most trailers, which could be okay, but if I analyze my impressions what bothered me most was the change of music in the middle actually.
But oh well, don't spend to much time on my feedback ;)

Looks good!

My only gripe with the trailer is that of timing - some of the scenes felt a little drawn out to me. For example, when he's being sucked up into the UFO at the beginning, it goes for at least twice as long as it should. I was thinking "yes, we know he's being abducted already, get on with it!!!" A decade ago it would have been fine, but these days our media-saturated world expects faster pacing. Especially in a trailer, it's critical that you don't let any audience member get bored.

The modelling, animation, and special effects, on the other hand, are excellent. Certainly better than anything I've ever made (I have dabbled in 3D animation from time to time). Well done! :)
