Flash unfortunately doesn't benefit your artwork

I'm not sure how beneficial it is to show your artwork with audio and panning. I would love to see this work in its full definition, not majorly compressed into a .swf. Flash at the file limits of NG will simply pixelate half of the beautiful lines and tones that I'm sure are present in your actual work.

Newgrounds has a brilliant Art Portal where a still of your work can be viewed by people that enjoy producing and critiquing eachothers artwork. Why not try there in future?

Michael1957 responds:

Thanks for the advice. Your right. There is a great loss of quality in the picture.

Nice Audio

If this is your own audio then I think that a submission to the Audio Portal would earn you a lot more success.
The animation is not great with an inconsistent art style and really serves no purpose but to further the idea that this is a zelda-based piece.
From looking at your website I see that you are very audio focused. Perhaps submitting your work there is a step in the right direction

SheepOvatsug responds:

The audio was made by Mat Graham (ArtificialFear), not me. His link is in the discription.
Please could you be more specific on what you mean by " inconsistent art style"? Thanks for the feedback!

Fantastic

Really amazing artwork, story and special features. The bloopers and even the sets were hilarious. Looked at the storyboards in the hope of finding help for storyboarding in general and just ended up laughing my head off. Brilliant submission.

ken9000 responds:

I didn't realize until after I made the fake storyboards, that I actually made real ones when I first started. They're really sloppy and not worth looking at.

uh-hmmm

I...don't really understand the point of the animation.

Your art had a nice style, however the canned laughter was a little irritating

Gerkinman responds:

The point was to take 35 seconds of your life and never giving it back ;D

[YouriX Music Reviews EP4]

Not a bad watch

A good episode, I really think some of your drawings require either more obvious gesture or more frames of movement. Everything feels very staccato. Art looks okay, and the sound is also not bad. A good review too with some light humour

YouriX responds:

Thanks for the positive review. I promise to do EVEN better with the next episode. ;)

Take your time

I fear that this animation was produced with the idea of fulfilling the entire story rather than producing a good quality flash.

Take your time, you could have easily turned it into two or three 30 second episodes of well drawn, well sounding and well produced animation.

It baffles me as to why at the end you would use text and straight lines when the style of the rest of the film is hand drawn and sketchy.

I say try again. If this flash survives the Blam, then attempt to remake it, or a sequel with some TLC, with sound, fluid action and some slower dialogue!
Keep working hard, you definitely have a style that could make a good short animation.

Chrisspy responds:

Thank you for giving useful feedback. It did actually take me about 2 weeks to make this, but you're right. I'm better with paper than a computer tablet.
