[Asteroids Mishaps]

K

^^Good Points^^
As a parody this is pretty good. I didn't realize at first it was a parody, but after I did it was much funnier. I liked the "wrong game" thing, which was pretty funny.

^^Needs Improving^^
While this was funny, it still wasn't that entertaining. Half of the stuff you put into this movie was just stuff that happens regularly in the game and can't really be called a mishap.

[Sprite Combat 3]

^^Good Points^^
Seems things are slightly better in this movie. Your characters seem to be animated on slightly straiter lines. Also, you distinguished subtitles from characters, making it easy to understand. This one made more sense too.

^^Needs Improving^^
Again, low frame rate makes this to be a very choppy movie. Especially when you have a lot of distance between the character from frame to frame, this just starts to look rushed. Again, there were spelling mistakes throughout this and other grammatical errors that were kind of distracting. Also, the fight scenes aren't very well coreographed, and with no sound effects, once the music cuts off this becomes very boring.

[Sprite Combat 2]

I sense that you put a genuine effort into making this movie, and I guess you just aren't the best at making Flash movies. I do appreciate the effort though.

^^Needs Improving^^
There was a lot wrong with this. Like the last episode, the framerate was really slow which made the sprites look really choppy and overall the animations were very slow and delayed. You may also want to consider using spell checker or proofreading the text next time, as there were some usage errors and spelling errors. I found it hard at some times to determine who was saying what, there was no distinction between characters, which didn't help the already strange storyline, which just seems to jump to random events.

[Under Judgement]

^^Good Points^^
A neat little movie that is very perceptive. Your perception of the portal is really quite interesting, I enjoyed watching this movie. The graphics were pretty cool, and I think the music went very well with the storyline. Good ideas and good overall for this movie.

^^Needs Improving^^
What was up with the end of this? Everything was really low quality and all pixilated. It looked really odd.

[Play your Wii Safely]

K

^^Good Points^^
Obviously based on that pretty funny clip of the guy slamming his controller into the wall, but still not a bad idea for a movie. I thought the sound effects really helped to make up for the lax graphics, they were really defined and appropriate. Funny ending too.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics really weren't that good. I felt that the uncolored shapes in this really hurt this. It looked very unprofessional, and to say the least, looked like the drawings were done by someone not so talented in Flash. Definitely could use graphical improving.

[Talking to a robot]

K

^^Good Points^^
The movie started out pretty good. It seemed pretty random, but it was alright. The animations were very good throughout this, and I liked the crazy personality that the animations gave to the main character. The voice overs were pretty decent too, and I liked the mix with speakonia.

^^Needs Improving^^
This just got too weird towards the end of it. What little storyline there was just started to go off into a contest of who was hotter, and other random stuff that made absolutely no sense. I like random stuff, but this just wasn't even that funny.

NightShadowTWO responds:

i understand. this flash was totally random coz nothing in the voice recording was planned. its more of an animation practice than a planned humourful flash movie

[time travel.]

K

^^Good Points^^
I liked this movie because of the voice overs. They sounded very genuine and added a lot to the humor of this. Your drawings were good, and the animations were life-like. The storyline was pretty funny, and the ending frame was cool.

^^Needs Improving^^
You may want to consider drawings some kind of background for this. I felt that the plain white background makes it look like you didn't put much effort into this.

[Sprite Combat 1]

K

^^Good Points^^
This had decent sprite use. You had a lot of animated sprites and good backgrounds as well. I thought the storyline was half decent too. Not that original and kind of childish, but decent.

^^Needs Improving^^
The first thing I noticed was the choppy animations. You have a pretty low framerate, which is made quite obvious in the beginning. Also, all the scenes are very zoomed out, which they should have been a little more zoomed in. You should have put the text in boxes or something just because it looks better that way, and also, you should have used sound effects, there was nothing but that incredibly annoying music playing.

[Real Life Ghost Footage]

K

^^Good Points^^
The video and audio quality were pretty high in this, much better than most videos imported into Flash. I think I may have seen the ghost but I'm not really sure...

^^Needs Improving^^
It's pretty obvious that you edited the clip a little bit. I can see the freezing mentioned in the previous review. Besides that, I'm not sure that I even saw the ghost. Was it just a shadowy looking thing? That's all I saw, and that was the third time I watched it.
