"An experience"

submission: .<3

date: February 7, 2008

To someone who has been through an experience much like this one, it's a breathtaking flash that has to be watched over and over again. The music fit the desperate emotions well, and the general animation was alright- you hit the emotions well, and the artistic style was beautiful. There were pieces, though, that you could tell were rushed, but the emotion and message broadcasted helped to even out the small pieces that needed some improvement (as, someone said, the hands when they were touching the screens, and going to hold hands at the end). But overall, you really took my breath away with this. Very good job.

Score: 10

"Incredible..."

submission: These Are The Boring Bits

date: October 22, 2007

The philosophical bits were interesting, to say the least, and intriguing. I hadn't expected such a long flash, but even the lengthyest parts were made durable due to the adorable little birds in the background and the sheer weight of what was being said. This flash can be taken in so many ways, and in so many depths, and I am utterly impressed with the unique style, and the reality that this flash drills upon. This is by far the most incredible story I have seen put into a flash film. Excellent, excellent job. This is brilliant work. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Score: 6

"So Close!"

submission: The Pendant

date: March 13, 2007

With a horrible lack of patience, I almost.. almost clicked close during what seemed to be an extremely long sequence of feet walking. I'm glad I didn't. Your art is amazing, the sketchy characters and their action sequences are top quality. I realize that you requested no no-sound bashing, but I must.. just a little bit. Without sound, without music or words, the prolonged sequences (the walking and the antagonist on the cliff) admittedly became annoying and impatience grew. The action sequence made it worth the wait, of course, but even so.. I'd love to see this resubmitted with background music and words, typed or spoken.

Awesome stuff, though!

Score: 3

"Short, but promising"

submission: Stick Earth Bending

date: March 12, 2007

Although not usually a supporter of stick-animations, those that are exceptional get my vote. A fan of the cartoon Avatar, I liked the way you portrayed the intensity of the bending, and the raw power and heavy, crushing movements of the "earth". Your comments were right in that the sound and such make it decent, however, as many people have and will state- it's far too short. As soon as I started getting interested, it was over. If you could insert this piece into a longer flash, perhaps as part of an action/battle sequence, the scores I'm sure would start rising. The stick/figure, as well, could do a little more as far as movement goes. Perhaps some acrobatics to make his bending more lively. Good start in all!

Score: 6

"Good idea."

submission: Rantdog and the Dead

date: July 12, 2006

I enjoyed the movie. Zombies always work, of course. There are only a couple of components you could work on to make this that much better. A less important one would perhaps be shifting the view around a little bit. Get a little more interest going with the pictures to go along with the story. Flashbacks to drawn clips of the game being spoken about would have been very nice to elaborate on the 'problems' of it. The main issue here would be the lip synching. It's quite important, especially for flashes based entirely on speaking. It made it difficult to watch, despite the humor and information presented. The end was very funny, the sound quality itself was very good, and it's context appeal should go over well. Good job.

Score: 2

"I'm not... sure"

submission: not all my work old stuf

date: June 30, 2006

The styles featured in this mesh of works are all very, very different, and the title you gave it makes me leery. 'not all my work' is a title that can entail stealing. Some of the features of this flash were very nice, and the over all sound quality made the movie worth watching even through the less than amazing parts. Unfortunately, I'm giving a low score mostly because of your lack of describing your meaning, and my accompanying lack of trust in the authenticity of this flash.

Score: 1

"Distasteful."

submission: Slash N' Littlewashu 03

date: May 10, 2006

This movie was nothing more than a single distasteful porn scene; or perhaps I just didn't watch long enough and there was more? I couldn't really bare to watch anymore than I did. The spliced image of some kid's head on the anime guy's body was terribly done, to say the least.

Score: 4

"Expand it."

submission: Mi.

date: May 10, 2006

If I had just watched the movie and ignored your explaination, I wouldn't have understood the point of it. It needed more screens at the very least, perhaps phrases and thoughts leading up to the final collage of time. If you had said something about each one, even if it was in a riddle-like form, it would have meant more to the 'average' person. I appreciated your concept, though. Good idea.

Score: 5

"Random, but decent"

submission: The Consult

date: April 26, 2006

The graphics need a bit of work, a little cleaning up perhaps. They seem to be lacking that substance of decent style that draw good scores from my greedy grasp. But I must say that I highly enjoyed the load screen. The song and crazy creature things there snapped my wandering attention back to pay a little bit more focus to your submission.
I like the story line. It lost me near the end, the insanity a little too much for my mind, and I think you could have drawn it out into being more of a story, deeper even. That computer plot could have gone much farther, but overall, the past few minutes weren't a complete waste of my life, so good try.

Score: 3

"Not exactly much"

submission: Byrd Park

date: April 26, 2006

If it wasn't for the sun beating to the music in the background, this would have been graded much nearer a 0. The guy's walking wasn't even walking.. It was almost like a loop plus a couple of ironic-incident people flying around. Work on your graphics, perhaps add something along the lines of lip-sync to bring the music into the video. Right now, it's little more than background music with stuff that kinda falls in randomly to attempt at fitting with it.
