[nymph in love with tree]

This was good FBF

The animation was well done. The only thing I saw to rework was the scene with the squirrel. The flames were a little choppy and his movements should be a little more sporadic. You know how squirrels dart from place to place in a zigzag fashion, maybe a little more of that?
The story was good, I love the Nymphs response to the tree "cheating" on her. Heh!
I look forward to seeing more of your work, and good luck in school.

ningaJanena responds:

thanks! super helpful!
and thanks for the good luck, I already graduated last summer and have a flash developing job. and hopefully I will be able to animate my own stories soon.

and yeah I completely agree the last scene is the one that needs the most work, that's the scene that I had to pump out and ran out of time spending every minute I had working on it til it was due.

thanks again for your review I really appreciate ones like yours that are constructive opinions :)

[NORMAL MAN!]

This WAS a good comic book in the eighties.

Normal man was a comic from the eighties. This was the same premise characters and sequence from one of the issues. Unfortunately the art style was missing and the animation was not fluidly timed. If you are going to adept an existing work please give credit to the original artist and try to stay with an art style complementary to theirs.
My suggestions are to work on your figure drawing and backgrounds. Take a sketchbook out to the park and just draw what you see. To time the animation properly try taking a stopwatch and see how long it takes you to throw something, walk, run, react etc. this will help your animation flow. Good work for someone your age. I've seen worse submissions by people in their late teens early twenties. You have talent and I hope to see more from you.

I will not give credit to this comic book because i am only 12 and had no idea it existed. Now if you'll exuse me i have to go to school

The-Swain responds:

I'm surprised you guys like it so much, to be honest...after a week and a half of straight work with little sleep, I can't stand to look at it anymore :D

[Space Adventures: Ep. 3]

um...

I like the intent of this flash but the story...I had a dream, lets go kick alien ass.... has been way overdone.
The previous reviewer is right human craniums are cylindrical not perfect spheres. the eyes were way too close together(try spacing the eyes out a little more.)
The walk cycle you used is flawed. It looked like they were skipping and the right leg just floated. Pick up the Animators Survival Kit. It's a great book you can get at your local library and is a must for any animator. You show promise just keep working on the basics and you will be alright.

Astralimits responds:

If you saw the previous episodes then you would understand the story...

[Apartment ABC (Ep. 1)]

What happen run out of Family Guy jokes?

Animation was horrible, stiff and looked like construction paper. Although the art style wasn't that bad, South Park already has done this.
Jokes were stale and rehashed from several animated series. Try to make new material don't steal jokes.
The premise was good but the execution needs lots of polish and rewriting before it's done.

Hyper-Stimulus responds:

Actually, I think the animation was pretty cool. It was simple, and a bit stylish, which complements the mood of the cartoon. Maybe if i were using sophisticated humor, I'd make sophisticated art. At this point, you can compare pretty much anything to The Simpsons, South Park, and Family Guy. Maybe if that's all you watch, then that's all you have to compare it to. Jokes weren't stolen, but I can see how the humor is the same. Thanks for the review HangingBunny

[Ortus: Stray]

Thank you for making this

Even if the art style is not what I normally prefer it was beautiful. Your stylized line weights and quality give the piece a quiet gothic quality that catches your attention and focusing it on the story. All I can say is WOW!!! I look forward to seeing more from you.

bica1 responds:

thank you very much...it's comments like this that keeps me wanting to continue making the Ortus series.
