A fair effort

I saw some effort on your part. As you said in your comments, you worked really hard on this. For that, I decided you deserved some criticism. You're a really good artist, but there's more to flash than just brush/fill/brush/fill. Learn more about effects and art in flash. Submitting random FBF drawing sequences will really get you nowhere on Newgrounds. Not very often do you see a movie like this placing daily. But you did manage to get a green 3.00+ score on a movie made in one day. That's something to be proud of.

I'm giving you a four because of your hard work.

Fairly decent

This was pretty good, I suppose. Really nothing special. It's obvious that you still have much to learn about flash and animating. Take some time to familiarize yourself with flash's various tools and effects. I see a lot of potential here. Work on drawing from different angles and frame-by-frame animation as well. Hopefully you can get somewhere!

I give you a 4 because I wanna see this score get up.

If Rainbow Brite were a boy...

Even through your obvious effort, I find myself not enjoying this. The animation as a whole was just flat out sloppy. The art was definitely something that needed work on. Here's a big tip for you: DON'T DO FRAME-BY-FRAME USING ONLY THE LINE TOOL! Really, if you're gonna do FBF animation, just use the brush. Turn up your smoothness and go at it.

I'm going to give you a 4 ONLY because I wanna raise the score for you.

Flat out genius.

Great job on this. That whole scene just blows me away in so many ways. Great job with the animation. All I can say is maybe get more creative with the backgrounds maybe, and amplify the sound. I hate having to blast my speakers. Other than that, excellent.

I give you a four, only because it was fairly short.

Please God, keep animating!

You really know what you're doing in flash. This movie really shows your skill. The action sequences were REALLY well put together and the dialog was just perfect. You really roped me in. The only real criticism I can bring up is the voice acting. The sound quality and just the voices themselves were very lame. I'm assuming you did the voices yourself, obviously. If you need any voice acting done, contact me. I can help you out for sure.

Zackie responds:

Glad to good, great to hear.

Potential! I love it!

Let me start off by saying, I love this! Okay, I'll admit, the animation was pretty low-brow and the art was definitely sub-par, BUT you put so much effort into this! I can tell you'll get somewhere on NewGrounds with time. Keep this up, and keep striving to do better and sooner or later you'll be getting 4.00+ scores. I really hope things work for you on NewGrounds.

I'm giving you a 5 for effort.

Senilek responds:

wow thanks! i like your enthusiasm!

I was not entertained.

This pretty much just left me bored. Oh look, dots moving around! I've seen this crap before: "MY FIRST FBF!!1!" and stuff. This is just a bunch of those put to cool music and a menu. Really, this has a higher score than it deserves. I'm not denying that there were good animators in this collab, but this was extremely lacking in creativity.

I give you a 3 for good animation, but poor originality.

Matt2k8 responds:

T_T Sorry to disipoint you.

Meh...

There was some noticeable effort, but not much. This could've been much better. You have a lot of potential in flash, but here are some tips:

Try mastering your audio! Download Audacity and you can REALLY improve your voice acting, even if you have a sub-par microphone.

Clean up your art! You could really make your flashes so much better if you just put a little more time into your drawings. It's obvious you know how to animate pretty decently. Now, all you need is some less sloppy characters and backgrounds.

Add some music variety! I heard the intro to "Don't Fear the Reaper" like four times in that one flash. Either let the song play throughout the whole movie--getting softer during speaking and louder during intervals--or just use different songs! Like I said, download some audio-editing software so you can cut up the tracks to lower the file size.

Over all, I give you a three for okay work.

evibini responds:

Thank you for the in-depth review. Yes, I am good at drawing, but not animating. Every flash I try to put my FULLEST effort into seem to get me to where I get artists block and no longer continue. I'm also trying to keep my mind one-tasked. The problem with audio is the fact that I'm using my mothers computer and she doesn't want me downloading everything I come across, so I'll see into the Audacity. Thanks again!

Deserves a better score!

I loved it. This was pretty original, and I liked your art. The ending was so randomly perfect. Voice acting was great, except the grandson had an overly adult-ish voice. Other than that, great job!

Therman responds:

I'm glad you loved it. Now I love you <3

Underrated, but with reason...

I liked this. Primus is an awesome band, I love them. This song especially is one of my favorites. I believe this should have gotten a better score, definitely. I liked the animation, it flowed well and was pretty creative. Although, the art was lacking. The drawings could have been much better. And yeah, I know it's hard to be picky when using shape tweens. Either way, I gave you have 5 because I think it was underrated.

I'm here to fuck shit up.
