[Syphen Stories]

I can see the hard work

You had a lot of passion for this. You can tell.

I saw all the hard work you put into it and attention to detail.

I think the slide show at the beginning was particularly good.

If you do it right, you can get away with simple graphics, I wish more ng artists could see this and not beg for a 5 after putting a few squares that dance on the screen for 2 minutes.

The prelogue needed some subtitles, maybe dialogue, because it wasn't completly clear what was going on. Dont have to put alot. Just enough to clarify what's going on. Although you did a really good job with the pictures.

I think the problem was you got bogged down in too many details and the project was taking way too long to complete.

The way you were going it would end up being a 30 minute movie easily.

When you write the script and story board the movie out, you want to trim it out, cut down the details. Like at the beginning of the animation part, it wasnt necesary to see them get out of bed and then walk to the door and then sit down. I would have just shown them in bed then a voice saying time for breakfast, then cut to the kitchen where she is cooking and they come into eat.

Actually you probably didnt need the breakfast scene. You could have gone straight to him running in the woods practicing his arrows, and then what ever trouble was coming his way , show a scene of that.

That way you wont get lost in all the detail.

It jsut takes practice.

The art still needs a lot of polish, but I can see the care you put into it.

You need to study how things look, so they dont look "deformed". Get some art books and sketch, sketch, sketch.

Quality comes from quanity. Your not trying for a "master piece" each time. Just practice. LIke you would your letters when learning to write.

But I love all the small details you put in there. Bubbling pot, the swans.

Ect.

Keep it up, I think one day you will be a serious animator, or illustator at least.

You have a nack for it.

I would keep making this movie. Be great practice for you.

Practice your drawing and get help with the technical details. The sound cut in and out on the animation part for the voices. You need to do all voices or all subtitles. I dont know if you tried to do all voices and the file got bugged or what but cant do some and then not others.

4/5 for the effort. I really liked it.

I hope you do more.

If you want help on the script, let me know. I'll be glad to help a budding Disney. ^_^

[The Little Black Point]

Da chicken didnt lay an egg. ^_^

The chicken was cute.

The only part I would redo is when they are fighting and they say come on , come on.

repetative.

I would change the words when the screen shot is on the guy with the moustache. You dont have to worry about changing any animation.

Long live da chicken.

[Atomic Clock Lesson]

woo

My first thought, this thing is going to be blammed, because you have clock in the title. Second thought, physics.... ah you know who watches this stuff at new grounds? Blam da blam blam.

But then I watched the whole thing.

*sniff, that was beautiful.

(And informative)

Ya did good.

Despite all odds, I think it made it.

Now will it make it to the front page.... news at 11.

Work on your drawing, or get some one to help you draw the people.

I mean you just had moving mouths on them, its worth it to put the extra time into those pics.

[Time Squad [Part 1]]

Booyah!

Just what blockhead needed. A good story. I fear the series was becoming a bit old because blockhead is uber random. But all the serious characters made it fresh and new.

Maybe anther regular character to be another straightman in the series would help.

Is blockhead ever going to have a girlie girl friend?

The-Swain responds:

A friend of mine, the one who did the voice of the Mad Scientist, drew me a picture of what he called "Blockbride, the Bride of Blockhead", but I fear that it would be just too bizzare to use.

And do not worry about the series. I'm changing a few of the rules to make it more diverse.

[The Saddest Song]

Good animation

Was funny,

I think some of the people will have problems with it because he's a "loser" instead of a happy ending.

But over all well exicuted.

stoners-lunchbox responds:

I can't say you're wrong on that one... On the other hand not all stories can finish with a happy ending... :P

Thanks for the feedback!

[H&S Insurance]

Okay

Nothing new or interesting but it has promise.

Script was a good start but needs polish. I would work with some one to polish it up and give you specifics. I think over all you have the right idea, youjust need more of a beginning and work on your timing.

Tangelafan responds:

Wow, best badly-worded, nonsensical, bewildering review I ever got. And I'm not Polish, I'm English. :)

[Random Rabbit ep.2]

interesting

Interesting Idea. You have a good delievery and the story moves along, only thing is moves a litttle too fast. I know you are trying to be cryptic, but it detracts when its too cryptic, drawing it out a little more would have helped. The audiance will enjoy it more if they can follow the plot line.

Im usually tellling people to speed it up, this time I was saying, slow it down a bit.

But very sharp idea over all.
