Were you rooted? If so you are in a soft brick, because you flashed an ota update over a rooted system. In order for Samsung updates to work, they have to be completely stock, as they are incremental. This means that the update only updates the parts of your system it is meant to, and flashing an ota over a modified system would cause this, which is a
soft brick.
Don't get the terms "soft" and "hard" bricks confused, there's a big difference. A soft brick is just a bootloop, which can be easily fixed most of the time.
A hard brick is where the phone won't turn on at all, which can only be fixed using a JTAG unit.
Now the question is, can you get into download mode? I don't know the button combination on the s, but you can find out pretty easily by googling it.
If you can, all you have to do is download Odin, and flash the stock update for your model s through Odin to your phone. There may even be a guide on how to do so on xda. Just look for "galaxy s return to stock" and it should bring something up that can help.
