aggimajera's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Memory Box]

I loved it. Heartfelt, meaningful, and expressive. My only gripes would by that some of the 3D art, particularly the ships, stood as stylistically different from the rest of the imagery and slightly took me out of the film just a tad.

That’s my only gripe though. The setup and payoff are excellently handled. And the animation itself is excellent, particularly through your 3D/2D blend. Hats off to you!

Anton51 responds:

What an interesting response! I will take note of it when I approach my 2D and 3D hybrid aesthetic. I am little new when designing space ships for my world heh. Thank you so much and glad you like it!

I love the animation style and fluidity. Very well done!

[SpongeBob Anime Ep1: Bubble Bass Arc]

This is without question one of the finest animated achievements in recent memory. You sir are a God among men.

[The Things That I Hate]

Very much a mature Sesame Street vibe. Liked the catchy tune and the silly movements and accompanying visuals.

[Krystal Kaptive]

I must admit the lack of sound threw me off, but no big.
The animation and anatomy are fluid and comprehensible and the expressions are well drawn, the facial work really adds to the body language. The line-work seems a tad rough. And the frame rate you drew doesn't allow for a fluid stop to the motions. But overall, it's quite good.

Next time I'd advise another pass at the line work. Again, quite good for a first attempt!

OddJuice responds:

Thanks a lot, this is the first good criticism I received in a while. It pumps me up to do more!

[A Union Storyboard Artist]

Informative in a manner I didn’t expect. I may not ever join this union but you certainly got me intrigued to learn more, since I intend for this field to be a career.

Thank you for all the information!

[Oscar (2019)]

Jokes are refreshingly politically incorrect in the bounds of good taste. You definitely caught me off guard in each scenario add-on and made me chuckle. We need more content like this.

Animation style is appropriately simple.

Overall, nice work pal.

insanetoons responds:

Thank you, nice to hear :)

[The big night]

Ah yes, a boy becomes a man.
In all seriousness, not bad for what it is.

[On the Edge of Absolve]

Alrighty: few thoughts.
You most certainly have a particular style when it comes to feeling. The hopeful yet nihilistic feel of the sound design and color palette worked. And I could certainly see the pain in your main characters face as it became clearer what exactly was going down.

A few areas you can improve: for one the voice acting was rather off-putting. I can tell ti was no focal point of yours.

The facial expressions certainly worked, but one problem I felt was that her expression always seemed wide-eyed, even when things were picking up. There was no low point to make her enraged face seem anything other than normal.

And I personally found the cinematography lacked a certain flare. As in the angles and images were never really anything to write home about. The frames did little to paint a deeper picture. I found the colors sorta bland at times as well.

Overall, not bad.

lpart responds:

I appreciate the feedback! More on its way and i'm taking all critiquing into consideration!

So I give the animation two thumbs up. The mixing of 2D and 3D assets was at times fairly rough but overall the illusion of space was well executed. The 2D animation of the MC himself was actually pretty good. Bravo.

The audio had a fairly substantial amount of clipping, and during the dogfight the distortion in the audio was simply too much. Borderline distracting.

The story had a wonderful monologue. But the change in tempo had no real preliminary hint it would come to that and therefore seemed wildly out of place. I found it to be wildly different from what the opening seemed to be alluding to and personally found it not for the better.

Overall not bad. But you gotta work on pacing a bit. And audio.
