[The End of Time]

K

^^Good Points^^
A very good effort and an interesting movie. Though the storyline has no voices and really no people or characters, it still has an interesting storyline, which is neat. I liked the sound effects, and the song was good even though it didn't have much to do with the movie.

The art could have used the most improving. I see you didn't really use and shading at all, which is pretty easy to do. Also, you used a large paintbrush quite a bit, which just looks unprofessional. I think the introduction at the beginning are really too long. They are almost as long as the movie itself...

[The Printer]

K

^^Good Points^^
The sound was about the only good part with this movie. The sound effects were very good for the computer. Sounded just like one warming up, and the printer was realistic too. I thought the preloader sound clip was kind of funny.

^^Needs Improving^^
Overall this movie was not made very well in my opinion. The graphics were pretty crude. There was no blending in his body parts, they looked all separate. Also, I noticed that when he drops the coffee mug his thumb seems to drop with it. Just another sign of rushed animation. Then there is the fact that this movie makes absolutely no sense at all, and I had no idea what was going on, which hurt a lot.

[The Newgrounds Tutorial]

K

^^Good Points^^
The music was good. It was nice and loud and high quality. You sure didn't compromise the quality of this. The image quality was likewise, pretty high.

^^Needs Improving^^
Not a very good tutorial compared to others. And you submit it at this time, after the new layout and levels were originally supposed to be released? It is known that they are coming soon, at which time this tutorial will become obsolete and have completely wrong information in it. I don't really like how you made this like a movie. A tutorial with a menu and sections is much easier to reference so one doesn't have to watch the whole thing to get certain information. Also, some of the information is not explained very well. I didn't like your level synopsis, and the B/P thing wasn't very clear either.

Thanks...I guess.

[Crow Clock Shorts #01]

K

^^Good Points^
Very good graphics in this movie. You have a great concept of animation, as you do an excellent job of making life-like and detailed animations, which can really be seen in his face. The storyline was pretty funny, and made funnier by the voice overs, which were clear and believable. The whole storyline was funny, NG personal sounds like a funny place to hang out.

The only thing I was a little disappointed about was that crow clock didn't say a single word during this, and the lack of speakonia was just not characteristic of a CC movie.

[Mario Vs Sonic ReVeNgE]

K

^^Good Points^^
A pretty good sonic vs mario movie. The best part was the music. You had a bunch of songs in this, each of which was well chosen and fit well. You didn't overuse them either, which is nice. The sound effects were also good, most noticably in the fight scene, which I thought was pretty well made. The ending was pretty sweet too. I had to laugh at that.

^^Needs Improving^^
Ok, the fight scene was good, but it got a little repetitive after a while. It seems the same thing happened over and over. One character made a move, than the other. Would have been better with more simultaneous fighting.

[epileptical clock day]

K

^^Good Points^^
Yes, a very epileptic movie here. The background was very flashy, as was the character, and you had the perfect seizure music, that super fast remix. Cool stuff.

^^Needs Improving^^
Unfortunately, seems like this was a minimal effort. It would have been more interesting if you had added a small storyline to add something interesting to this. It's just a single frame with some movie clips. I think you could have put a little more effort into this to make at least SOMETHING interesting happen.

[Dark Future]

K

^^Good Points^^
The graphics in this movie weren't all that bad. That giant slab of rock was detailed to the point that it was almost scary looking. The sound was great for the mood too, since it was very bassy and mysterious. The ending was kind of funny too.

^^Needs Improving^^
It's a little disappointing though. The movie took a pretty long time to develop, or at least for what was offered in the ending. Nothing too interesting happens in this movie. It was unexpected, but nothing too interesting for the time I had to wait for it to happen.

[Happy MF birthday]

K

^^Good Points^^
A funny little twist on the old classic "Happy Birthday" song. I found the music a little funny, never expected that remix. I liked the headbanging animations too, they looked pretty good. Good job on the drums and guitar.

^^Needs Improving^^
One thing I noticed was that this was very hard to see most of the time. Your backgrounds seemed to all blend together since they were all really dark shades of whatever color. I know you are trying to get a mood across, but it's not good if someone can't see what the hell is going on.

[Cour&hisGang#2]

K

^^Good Points^^
A very strange movie, but I liked it. It was neat how you made this a very quick paced movie in the beginning, so fast I had little idea what was going on, then slowed it down a lot with the SBC scene. This was pretty funny throughout, and the added introduction scene was necessary.

^^Needs Improving^^
I think you used that "whoosh" sound effect much too often. It really started to annoy me.

Courgy responds:

Thanks dude.
Yes this project kicked of as a realy short spam movie so it all movied pretty fast.
And for the woosh, well I just love that sound =3
