"Spacing and Timing"

submission: animation excercises

date: March 31, 2008

Especially visible in the ball bounce at the very beginning your spacing changes up so the ball actually slows down before it hits. Make sure your slow ins at the top of the arcs don't slow out at contact.

The dog wags his tail in sync with the head motion; throw the tail wag off by two or three frames to add more appeal to the movement.

Other than that it turned out really well. As a cartoonist and an animator in training I know your pain. I also know you can improve! Have fun learning!

Score: 8

"t3h caek is a lie!!!"

submission: Coffee Cake

date: March 24, 2008

Yes... waiter? I'd like an order of win to go.

:) Makes me smile. Though the hand gestures for the waiter were a little over the top in the beginning. Also... maybe the guy starts yelling about the stuff instead of whispering about it the whole time. Might help the sensation of building tension.

Nice work!

Score: 4

"It layers after once through."

submission: MY Ferst Flash

date: February 5, 2008

You get two sets of music going at once. Take some time and learn the flash things that go with movies. Like it stopping after you've watched it.

I've seen the concept before. Take it farther, make it crazier, do different stuff. One way to take it farther would be to have about ten layers of completely different frame by frame animation (like you have here) and then layer them together as masks, additions, etc.

Score: 2

"No. Come up with something original."

submission: Solitaire Deck 3

date: February 5, 2008

Naked women on card backs are worthless. Its like combining spring water and vinegar. While each has its place and use the two together is ruinous. You play Solitaire to play Solitaire, not stare at women. And vice versa, you stare at naked women to stare at them! Not play cards!

Argh. You should just upload the full resolution pics and be done with it. You'll be a lot more popular that way.

Score: 4

"Lawl?"

submission: Hells Avengers Teaser

date: February 5, 2008

Stick figure Sparta? With Apocalyptica as the music? Son, this is what we call EPIC FAIL. There is nothing incredible about this. There are lines stolen from movies about Sparta (300, and whichever one has a gealic man as their leader... :P)

Epic fail, son.

Score: 10

"Because I am envious."

submission: Stiw Kit: Episode 1

date: February 1, 2008

And I truly am. As an animator in training I realize (especially because its traditional) the amount of work was grueling (but the satisfaction is worth, I think).

I am happy to see some high quality animation make it on to Newgrounds.

Nice work.

Score: 10

"Excellent."

submission: NightmareCity:Catastrophe

date: April 27, 2007

I actually think you could have pushed this so much farther.

Graphics - The cats were different! I LOVED those. The anime characters stank of celluloid anime. Just more of the same.

Style - See cats for more detail.

Sound - Somebody's song.

Violence - Massive explosions and stuff.

Overall - Nice story, if a bit over done. Cats were nice, anime was not, form was lacking in some cases.

EXCELLENT!!1 Woo!! Now go twice as far next time. I look forward to more of this kind of thing.

Score: 7

"Don't worry about timing."

submission: Fantastic Management

date: April 1, 2007

Graphics - Nice and clean. Simple fun for simple humor.

Style - See graphics and: I like the square guy, looks a mite like that one guy from a Nintendo game I used to play. Starts with an 'm.'

Sound - An over used song, but apart from that it fits almost perfectly.

Humour - Your timing, rather the timing of the song, is ridiculously funny. Especially when the box kicks into high gear and starts doing so many random things. Nicely done.

Overall - Timing is everything and you nailed it.

Score: 7

"Good, better than most."

submission: Minushi - Chapter 1

date: April 1, 2007

Graphics - Well done. Especially the 3D effect you got with the layers. Very nicely done.

Style - It chokes of pulp anime. All things considered, though, you still have time to set yourself apart from the rest.

Sound - Very nicely done! I would mail you my left arm to get the source of those mechanical sounds( (jk).

Violence - Gargantuan robots that kill stuff. Need I say more?
--
Story - First of all; you have committed an evil in story telling. The robots can be seen to have no purpose other than to kill stuff, which works for a short while, but they are much easier to identify with when they have a motive.

Second - your hook is good (the guy with the robot) so long as you explain it in very short order. He cannot remain nameless and identitiless forever. Even if the main character knows nothing at least tell the audience something about him. Maybe he's looking at a picture or something, maybe we see a scar. Something to let the audience know a thing or two so this guy is no longer wholly a mystery (some mystery is ok).

Right, I'm rambling.

Good job on the whole. If you execute the rest well it should turn out to be an enjoyable series which has been lacking lately.
