Skaijo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Phenomenal: Episode 02]

Nice start to an epic series!

You gave this entry a 5!
You're the saviour! You are one of a number of people who have helped keep this entry in the Portal!

For simply committing to full body characters and not stooping to sticks, I give you mad respect, b. Nice work on the sound too. Overall, good on you. I'm glad I was able to keep this in the portal and I hope this and more of your flashes will get the recognition they deserve.

Much love from Skaijo. <3

Blaklyon responds:

I'm Glad you saved my flash fron getting blammed. most people that have sen my work , know that I don't do stick figures. Its too easy. I like the roads less traveled. Thanks for the review!

[Re:Tears for every mement]

Heh. *all smiles

This is good work for a starter.

The graphic presentation was well done. There was good attention to detail for ever model, however, there was little animating of their actual bodies.

I found the style a bit heavy handed. It was if I was being force-fed sadness, and I had already expected that this animation was going to be dreary in some sense. It would have been nice to have some substance that would actually draw people into the movie emotionally. The sound only seemed to add more emphasis on what was already an obvious intent. All that was interactive included a play button and that's it.

What I did like about it was the stylistic orchestration of every scene. You clearly put in a good deal of effort and it shows. I hope this makes it through, and that in the future your animations will be able to move more people.

[A Story of Revenge]

Artist!

You need to credit the artist of the music in your animation. See if you can do so in your Author's Comments (I'm actually interested in find out who it is). Other than that, great job.

i-are-monkey responds:

Hi, thanks for your review, much appreciated.

The music is, DJ shadow, "mongrel meets his maker"

[Survivor Afghanistan]

Nice

You're a very good animator. I'd like to see more projects where you make the script that way people can see if you can write just as well as you animate.

Goshmo responds:

ahaha lol hate to break it to ya Skaijo i cant script. Nah im jkin im actually workin on one of my own with ma own sound but if there is any male voicetalent or female voictalent available please email me at [e-mail]

[The Little Buzzers Ep 3]

Wonderful!

This is just the flash I needed to see today! You've made my day.

--an excellent stylistic work brimming with originality.

FarFromSubtle responds:

Be sure to check out the other episodes!

[Adventure Time #200]

Yeah, I'm all for this

The weakest area was the sound department. voice actor mumbling--speaking to fast, and muddled music sq in teh background but it had a very distinct snes of style to it. I'd suggest not drawing mouths but editing your own sprite mouths in any next installments. Also, try to work more with lip synching. this is all just constructive critism to what I thought to be an excellent flash. :)

Jake-Heritagu responds:

Heh, I CAN do lip synching, I just got lazy and decided not to, since this was really mostly an experiment, I decided not to bother too much on lip-synching.

[The Boy Who Cried Bear]

Improvement!

I remember seeing the soundless one of just the boy skating. You added as story, sound and better backgrounds--you're improving. That already puts you ahead of a lot of other authors on this site.

orangegoat responds:

Thanks!

[innerlight: the storm]

Great job, here's some thoughts

I gave you a five, and to save you a long spichel on how well done the movie is, I thought you might appreciate some constructive critisim too.

The animation of the characters were fairly choppy--if the character models were a bit more detailed, then this wouldn't be as evident. But I knew you purposely attempted to keep the character design simple--but that only makes the poor transitions between animated stances more evident.

Moreover, I the fight scene left something more to be desired. I never really feel as if the Superhero was in any danger--and would eventually win, which was slightly dissapointing because the villian was presented in a way that made him seem more human than the protagonist. Here we saw a man who had been defeated and would strive to any means necessary to achieve victory only to be shut down, once again, by a cocky young man. Storyline in a nutshell.

Still though, the style was good and it was a well executed film. You really did a good job and you're only bound to get better as you go. This will probably even get frontpage. ^^

ART-TRON responds:

Thanx, I know the animation will run smoother as I do it more often. and I am glad you got the point of the unfaifness of this villians situation :)

[Suits and Ray Guns]

Hey --one question, please reply

Who is the artist that plays the menu music?

Gbus responds:

I got it off this site, I dont know about the artist:http://www.mbamusic.com/CD_Titles/Acid_Jazz_Trax.htm

Sory about the bad sound quality of the flash, I uploaded an early version of it by mistake.

[A veces soy tuyo]

The song was so sad...

What a tear jerker... it looked to me like this was a pretty big project. And hey, I know frame-by-frame is a bitch most of the times. But it looks like you executed what you soughted out for. The anime anatomy is spot on--while not clashing with the Spanish sonnet. I want to say this is good but it makes me sad every time I see it... so I'm going to say that it's bad--but in a good way. ^^

Davo-one responds:

My friends always tell me that I have the ability to transmit the feeling trough art(Still my drawings are poor), you should check "Lilium - Dance of lies".
Im glad you reviewed this movie, your opinon meant something for me.

PD
HEY!, people like us should join and get in to the top 50.
