MorrowDays's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[RWD: Christmas 08]

great stuff!

I think shirt turtles was my favorite, I cant get over how much I love that bad video effect of his. YAY

[It's Cold Inside]

I liked it

probably your best work to date, style was consistent and the story was amazing. really powerful.

good drawings too.

bye

[Prime Minister Address]

Well done, these guys don't know anything :P

REALLY nice piece, the combination of flash animation and watercolors was very pleasant and it seemed to work well, and, despite prior reviews, you demonstrated your animation fluidity abilities in a bunch of instances, like when the guy with the gun was walking tip toes forwards to with the tiki guys in the back.

I really liked it, its not like a lot of stuff I've seen lately.

[Gone Too Far]

yeah dont do that.

lol, perfect for NG halloween but yeah, not the best idea.

HOPE YOU WIN STUFF BECAUSE IT LOOKED COOL.

[Ghost Crush.]

you've got my vote!

that was beautiful. all of your stuff is, I dont know how you do it! its so smooth, the animation is really high quality, and the story was also quite nice.

I really hope you win.

rawrawr

motion guides are actually useful if you do it right. :P mostly its for adding an arch to tweens. so the object doesn't just go straight :)

funny cartoon. at first I was like, damn I hate jimtopia, none of it is animated and its all tweens >:( but then it got really funny and enjoyable and you managed to use that basic animation stuff as part of the story.

so it was really good. you've definitely got writing skills, thats for sure.

if you want something to work on, try some frame by frame animation. most of your stuff is tweened, and its good to know both pretty well.

Jimtopia responds:

You hated me!? T_T

[TakeTwo - Beginning]

for what it was it was okay

hardly an animation though! the mouth moved... and there was a slideshow in a little box. fantastic.

I mean, yeah, there was the history, which was interesting.. but.. there are so many incredibly more creative ways of like, showing it.

I'm biased because I like watching things move... and I'm not really into video games A LOT (which is pretty shocking for a modern day newgrounds kid) so I guess thats partially why I wasn't super into it.

make it move more. thats the main thing :)

[BING BING]

not bad

a lot of the stuff I had seen in beep beep already, so it wasn't entirely interesting, but I still fived it because I liked it for the most part.

here's some advice:
when you're animating to music, its totally fun and great to just mess around like you were with no story, but when the only movement happens on the main beats, it starts to seem storyboardy, and a storyboard with no story is kind of pointless!

I like animation/animating without a story, but Im finding more and more that its important to people and that I feel happier making things that have stories that are also animated to my level of quality. you may not feel the same way, but you might some day. thats not so important.

the main thing is that actions shouldnt just happen on the main beat (or bing, haha), its generally more enjoyable when movement is a relatively constant element, and important movements happen on the main beat. then its like, 'OH MAN LOOK HOW AWESOME BORNTOBYTE IS AT SYNCING!' right now its pretty good but it could be a lot better with more movement.

lol, I know that lots of movement is harder to animate though too, which is Im sure one of the reasons you kept this pretty simple. your frame by frame is fun and light, and it would definitely be overwhelming to animate something of that length with like, 2000 unique frames.

keep it up, you seem to be improving nicely.

Thanks man, I'll remember these tips!

[RWD: 017]

I R SKARED OF U MR ANIGENZZ

cool stuff, its a neat style and the story was cool. I liked your characters. some good oldschool stuff in there too, with the eyes, and the hand changing position and what not.

lmao, nice song too. seemed to fit nicely.
