"It's a Storyboard"

submission: Beauty of Valentines Day

date: February 13, 2008

Well I probably wouldn't have watched it if I'd known it was just a storyboard, seeing as how that's not what I come here for, but I suppose you succeeded at telling a story. Since it's not news that quality animation cannot be done in thirty minutes, you should have allotted yourself more time.

Score: 0

"He Was Right"

submission: line and line again

date: February 10, 2008

You shouldn't have submitted it.

Score: 5

"Review"

submission: Someday Trailer

date: January 21, 2008

Wow; someone in one of my classes is doing a project with a very similar story. Then again, I don't think this is the most original plot. The look is nice, especially the layouts, but I don't like the tweening so much. Gives it that cheap flash look that you're obviously very capable of transcending. Looks like it will be a nice project when you finally get to it.

Score: 0

"Study life and motion"

submission: Odd Walk Cycle

date: January 15, 2008

Well it's not Flash, but that's not really the issue. Nobody could walk like that without falling over. If someone were leaning back that far their feet would have to stay beneath them to help balance and suppose the weight. Study how the body moves and how weight affects that movement. Since you did this for an animation class, I assume you're at some school where you should have access to life drawing resources. Use them. "Odd" just looks bad if it's physically impossible for no apparent reason.

Score: 8

"Awesome!"

submission: Birdzone Movie Teaser

date: June 9, 2007

Very nice! Definitely looking forward to the completed version!

"?"

submission: -AE- Xion

date: June 3, 2007

What the heck was this supposed to be? Why does the barely bouncing red ball squish upon the only click you can make on it?

Score: 8

"Pretty Nice Job"

submission: SwitchBlade FBF Collab

date: June 3, 2007

It's random...but I like the animation in parts.

Score: 6

"Alright"

submission: NinjaBlock3; The Core

date: June 3, 2007

Using blocks instead of sticks makes it a little more interesting. The effects animation (in that one explosion) is decent. The slow-moving dialogue that reveals what is going on really drags and kinda kills it, esepcially since the animation ends like two seconds later. I haven't watched all of your NinjaBlock submissions, but perhaps it would be better (if it's one continuous story), for them to all be put together.

Score: 0

"Needs More Effort"

submission: S1E02-Tree Terror

date: June 1, 2007

Ever heard of the twelve principles of animation? If not, look them up, learn them, and practice them because this claymation lacks all of them. There is no timing, the story beats make no sense, the editing makes no sense, the music seems pointless, and the voices are hard to understand.

Score: 6

"Pretty Nice"

submission: Eyeballoon

date: June 1, 2007

The animation is well done and it has a very classic feel to it. The style doesn't appeal to me, personally, but it does work for this. Keep it up.
