WELL JOBBED

Excellent pacing through-out, I especially enjoyed the little details that make it worth watching again (the notes written to the "cernal", etc.)

I did feel the section immediately after the flashback was a little weak compared to the rest of the animation though. Still very impressed!

Subtitles may have been a good option to emphasize the awesome spelling and grammar that Mr. Chimaera is (in)famous for.

Galneda responds:

Yeahhh, I admittedly got pretty sloppy around the flashback. It was one of those situations, not unlike when working on Zone of the Awesome or Dick Neck, where I had been working on it for so long, that I was steadily becoming more and more sick of it. In those areas, it was definitely rushed. (As well as the Zombie scene and to an extent, the credits.)

Ahh, yeah, and I forgot to learn how to make subtitles! I'll have to work on that in the future :P

Thanks a whole bunch, James! Sorry I couldn't implement the Dad whacking Lil' Stalvern with his eyes like a billy club like we talked about in class. lol

Classy

But what about their OLD logo, with the valve in the eye? :D

Falconer02 responds:

There's a lot of theories going around in these reviews...most think it's either Nick or Gordon Freeman! But I did some research...it might be Kelly Bailey who does the music for HL and such. I don't know though. Glad u liked it though!

Excellent Animation Skills, but...

Your animation was very nice and smooth for the most part, there were some simple anatomy inconsistancies that bothered me, but its a small thing. Your use of pictures as backgrounds worked rather well, good job!

My complaint is the story of this animation. From what I saw here the characters are just a bunch of pretencious assholes. All we saw was that they were misfits in class and didn't get along with the other students. They also bullied smaller students, going so far as to tie them up and leave them in a dangerous situation in the storm. I can't relate to the dream of being an artistic soul when they spend their free time abusing others. Maybe if you had shown that they had a hard life, maybe having to work a job or do hard chores at home as well as working hard at school.

Overall, your animation skills are good, but your storytelling needs work. Keep it up!

Skaijo responds:

Lmao, even pretentious assholes have dreams. You don't need a hand in the salvation army bucket to have an aspiration. I made the girls jerks to more accurately reflect my own childhood, add some depth to their personalities, and to make the overall cast less saccharine and likable.

It's a great contrast. :3

Interesting...

You have a nice style here, but its too abstract for my tastes. I didn't see much connection between the chapter names and the clip that followed. Cheezy sound effects (such as the splat when the guy fell, the gun sounds from the eye, the pointless shriek at the end) just made your animation seem cheap and unprofessional. Give it another go with more effort and I think you could do some really great stuff!

W-P-S responds:

it was rushed
i had to finish it before monday

Not bad, with a little work you could be gold.

Your humor is pretty good, your characters all seem to have personalities of their own, not just clones... You need to work on the sound a lot, a lot of the voices were too quiet compared to some of the others. Balance those out, refine your artwork a bit, maybe up the pace a bit and I'll give ya 5/5. Talk to the guys behind "Decline of Gaming" or at least look at their stuff for some goals for animation.

JAYDOTCOM responds:

Yeah, if they would even consider answering me, I would be extatic. Their level is my Aim =D. I have recieved lots of comments about voices so Im gonna make sure to MAKE my friends do better *shakes fist* hehe. TY for the review

I didn't have the patiance...

First of all, lets toss out the bad things. One, your vioce is too quiet, I couldn't hear what you said. Two, even if it was louder, the voice was rather low quality in the first place. Three, add subtitles or something and you may be able to skip both of the other two problems. As I said, I didn't have the patiance to sit through all of this, but aside from those problems, it seemed to be ok.

luminousnerd responds:

subtitles would take me several hours...not worth it to me. And my voice isn't too quiet...your speakers are too quiet. You can always turn them up. And yes, it's obviously low quality, I've said it before and I'll say it again: Until I get a donation of $50 to buy a new mic, I'll be using this low quality one that makes me sound like I have a friggin lisp

Hitting up school and work, trying to learn actionscript in my spare time. Side-scroller in the works, but not any time soon.
