Little-Rena's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Speedtooning Cows 2]

Alright

Again, the lack of preloader here makes it hard for me to stay intrested in this because it doesn't flow all the way through, even some form of video loading bar would be nice to see. But again, you have a nice camera angle to capture everything that you are doing on the screen.

Clear talking which is good and some good drawing here too, as well as some tips people could possibly take away from this, if they pay attention, lol. Pretty good finishing but just make sure to use a preloader on larger works in future :D

[Speedtooning Cows 1]

Hmmm

Well the idea is good and it's nice to see how you did everything here but my main problem with this is the filesize and the lack of preloader, you should really use a preloader so that it runs smoothly. Once you get passed the lack of preloader, it is a decent video, I can see that this would help some people take on some drawing tips though.

Your voice is clear which is a bonus on this and the drawing here is good too, also the camera is at a good angle to catch everything. But as a tip for future videos, consider using a preloader :)

[TwistClock's Great Escape]

Alright

Well it wasn't too bad, the spinning animation was okay and some of the other animations, though it did lack much change in background or background objects, some of those might have helped in this animation, as would more detailed looking charectors.

The plot was okay, though seemed to be a little repetative after a while, but it seemed to work okay with the theme, also the music wasn't too bad, decent quality sound and such. Although no speech, which was quite a major problem here, some talking would improve this quite a lot. But pretty good work on this flash.

[DailyDay4: Ramdonperson]

Cool

I can see that you have done this in MS Paint, as you have also said and I must say it's very good animation considering as well as the drawings being very nice though the lack of a preview image might make people ignore it more, should have one made. But the animation is good and everything else is nice, although maybe a litte short in someways but eh, still good.

The spray for the stars looked a little messy in my opion though but that's the only thing, everything else is good, sound is also nice so very good work on this, keep it up. Happy Dailyday too :)

ramdonperson responds:

Thanks for the icon!

[DailyDay4: Pollo Asado]

Alright

The graphics are pretty nice and the sound is good to, although it's a little hard to hear the voices, maybe the music should have been a little quieter. Although there isn't much change in the background or anything, it is quite easy to just look away from the flash.

The way it ends and loops is pretty odd, you could have had him ride off then ride back and start over with everything, but eh, only if you really wanted to loop it better, lol. But overall it's pretty nice and quite funny in someways, good job and happy Dailyday.

SeizureDog responds:

Well the talking and the music is all part of the same song, so nothing I could have done there :P

And about the end: ANIMATE something? Pish posh, it's daily day.

[LS Hotdog Spoof]

Not great

Well it wasn't all that fanstastic, maybe the idea is there but I can't really say anything else is there, the whole plot is kind of jumbled and it doesn't seem to have a great deal of direction. The sprites don't do many favours for this as well as the background being a photo, it would have been better if you had drawn everything yourself and animated it without sprites or used a sprite background.

The audio is fine, no problems with that except for the random shouting, that was a litle hard to hear and such. Everything else was just eh, the text could be in a box at the bottom and some text isn't needed, also a tider ending screen would be nice to see, but good luck with future flash.

[A Smucker's Moment]

Decent

It was a pretty decent flash here, although the sound was a little poor with the talking, it could be a little better in that part, the music and sound effect where there was some sounded good though, so that was nice. Although this was a little short, it was still pretty funny.

The graphics here where really nice and the animation was pretty smooth although it has to be said that the mouth movement could be a little better, maybe learn some lip syncing and improve that for future flash. But all in all, I have to say this was pretty funny.

Skaijo responds:

Thanks for such an in depth review on such a short animation. You made a lot of valid points while not seeming too critical of on the brevity of the work.

+ You're constructive criticism is pretty on point on both the lip syncing and voice actor puffing.
-/+ You're a bit too easy on me with the graphics. They're a step up from lazy in my book. Ha! Perhaps you could try commenting on the quality of the backgrounds for future reviews (since I only had a linear fill).

All and all, it's a this is a great review! It's critiques are supported with proper examples from the flash and it's very informative while also being pleasantly supportive. That said, the punctuation could have been double-checked in order to better clarify any points that you had attempt to convey. It's good to know that the Review Request Club still has active and diligent members.

[D4ilytoon # 399]

Nice

Pretty nice themed Dailytoon although some of the parts where better than others, I guess that's been the same for the whole series, some lacked looks though but the sound was nice in all of them and a good menu, some longer toons would have been nice, but not really needed.

Can't really say which was my favourite from all of these, they all have there own strong points and weak points to them and with them being short, you can just keep watching them over and over, maybe that's a bonus then, lol. Well anyway, pretty good work, happy Dailyday and so forth :)

[Nathonia]

Alright

Well I have to say the graphics here where pretty good, although the photos used where kind of eh though it didn't bother me too much to see them used, which is okay. The story itself, well that was pretty decent, good use of time too, it was quite a long flash, so good job on that. The lip movement although it was well drawn and everything, it didn't seem to go to well with the talking, maybe slow that down a little or try syncing.

The music was good, nice quality and all, fit in too, as for the voice acting, that was pretty good too although in some parts it seemed a little too quiet, so that might want to be fixed. But otherwise a pretty good flash here.

[The Spice Girls Concert]

Alright

Well to start with, the next image for Afro does look better, much smoother, though it was quite an intresting way to bring it into the flash and proably future flash though to be honest. But still, pretty unique way of doing it. I did notice that you didn't have a floor, so Graham seemed to be flooting in someway, would be a good idea to have a floor under the subtitle frame, lol.

Pretty good sounds and voice acting, though lip movement could be more realistic and other animations, also do you know why the replay button doesn't work? If you are using Flash CS3, you could open a new Actionscript 2 document and do it that way, or learn buttons for CS3. But alright, just keep working on animations, maybe even find some shortcuts to do things ;)

"Graham seemed to be flooting in someway"

Perhaps he IS floating. XD

"also do you know why the replay button doesn't work?"

I'm using Flash 8, and perhaps the 60FPS fucked up the button and sounds.
