JoeSketchConcepts-NG's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cacalotl]

A damn shame that animations like this don't get seen on mainstream media as often as Disney or Cartoon Network. Which keeps Newgrounds the number one website for animation's sake.

About a hundred commenters will praise the visual qualities of this animation. But as a character artist I want to comment on the sorceress Hoh. I really like how femininely pleasing she looks and her cloth top is clever in design. It's sexy that in human form you can see her breasts from underneath. And in crow form it makes lots of room for her wings to function. Anybody who wants to give character's wings and cloths should keep in mind how much space wings will have on the body. I'm talking about the side areas underneath the arm pits.

Overall, A very amazing video you made.

Shi-Gu responds:

I trully appreciate it!
Glad that you liked Hoh's design and commented on it!
The triangular top garment is a traditional kind called Quesqueme found throughout Mexico. In ancient times it was pretty common to wear it with nothing under, which is where this design came from; glad to see it played out nicely.

[If I posted more often]

Very simple work made for a simply short cartoon. Not bad.

CRIPSYNG responds:

THANK YOU!😃

[Bill]

I don't know what's going on in this animation. But the technique behind the work looks good. It could be just me, Or the audio needs some tinkering to be more comprehensible.

SuperCodeman responds:

Thanks for the feedback, I'll try and keep it in mind when working on future projects

[Waiting for the bus with your good friend (Lo-Fi loop Animation)]

This whole animation is superb! The simple task of waiting for a bus to come around appears more interesting with really good music in your ears, The world around you slowly changing, And the person your waiting next to is a cool guy.
Only thing to criticize here is the loop effect. An animation this long should have something new popping up every once in a while. Like a bird flying by or a truck driving along.
Great work!

TheMightyWeakling responds:

Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoy and I’m hoping to make better stuff in the future with your suggestions

[Human Vapor]

Another music video that is mostly about music than video. I have no problem with the alternative audio. But if your going to make a movie with the audio, Add some new and interesting animation to go with it please.

SroSocial responds:

Okay, will add in thanos x kim impossible sfm animation next time

[Randimation #1]

The animation movements and images feels and looks very Stock. The Windows OS green-grass and blue-sky background is in the first and last scene. And the story is a simple reaction to an annoyance. Also: This is supposed to be first episode, So I assume the animator will get better over time.

Kaloob responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I realize that some things lacked polish, but the whole "stock image backgrounds" was a style I was going for, though I guess it fell flat.
I'll defiantly try to flesh out my stories in the future, but I've already almost finished #2 (#1 is just over a year old at this point).

[Court]

That was Splendid!
A simple court case where simple characters are arguing about color rights. The prosecutor is the only one angry and the most entertaining. What's even more interesting is that THERE IS such a thing as owning a color. Coca-Cola owns it's shade of RED for its signature soft drink. UPS owns BROWN for it's moving trucks. and so forth.
Amazing work you created.

KARENWOOD responds:

Thank you! also I had no idea anyone could own a colour lmao thats crazy

[The Disbelievers movie]

Woah. I've never seen a full one hour long video get uploaded into newgrounds before. The animation is an Animatic. The art style has that "Made-during-free-time-at-home" kinda feel. And the audio is all over the place.
I give this Submission three stares just because i am interested in what other Newgrounds Reviewers would say about this. I don't have time to see it all.

Sillybaby responds:

Thank you :) yes it took me almost a year making this ;; :) I'm getting faster at the program and better.

[Exclusive! “Dead Darell: The Kid without Tears – Episode 1” Animation]

Definitely a Newgrounds Series! It's a Flash animation mix of characters and scenarios we've all seen before. Mixed into something that can become truly original over time. But as is, The fight scene does need a previous scene for context of the world this takes place in. More detials least. Keep up the great work!

Also: I like that the characters are based off of Marvel, Not DC. Marvel is best in my book.

SodaPartyNetwork responds:

I'm happy you liked it, JoeSketchConcepts-NG. Making an animation for the first time almost always has it's learning curve and with lots of room for advancement. I knew there were plenty of gaps in terms of the story and some much needed scenes...such as a dialogue setup. Rather than procrastinate and wait till I make a 'perfect' debut I just dove in. I'm already working on Episode 2. Thank you for the tips and encouragements I really appreciate it. Cheers, mate!

[Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde animatic]

Every frame of Animatic is just as good as 24 frames of actual animation. Great work you've completed!

AnimationAsylum responds:

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
