CameronMc's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Another]

It's really interesting to see this next to "And the Birds Flew", and seeing it as what I'd imagine you thought of in your OG newgrounds days as your future masterpiece.

Watching this realist approach is really interesting in animation, and especially with the heavy easing you used. It's tense the entire time, but just keeps slowly rolling forward; all in spite of it's narrative's hum-drum surreality and the shear will power to animate it in the way you did.

It's aesthetic feels akin to a grindstone in every way possible.

Great work!

wh347 responds:

Thanks man!

Yeah, what a nightmare this thing was to animate. I had a couple of little things between this and "And the Birds Flew", but you're right that this one was definitely the "Ok, time a make my big hand-drawn masterpiece". Yikes!

[depressing stories]

A+ exprementing with physical/digital texture in the composition and audio! You're tone and confidence in the audience's acuity is always appreciated, especialy around here.

Got the best kind of Edmund O'Neill vibes from parts too!

Wow! All your key poses were really strong! Great job!

cecameron responds:

Why thank you!

[Incident in the Alley]

Fantastic to see some intresting storytelling techniques around here! Stuff like this is raising the bar!

Oh gosh, you guys are all making me blush...

[Carrot Makes a Flash]

I laughed!

morcov responds:

OUTSIDERS LAUGH AT MY FLASH I AM SUCCESSFUL

[No Service]

I'm feeling something...

I'm sensing a very heavy influence here by Jason Steele. VERY heavy. The voices, characters, conversation, resolution, single instrument playing in the credits.
Not saying it's really a bad thing, but you might want to find some other inspirations to draw from so it doesn't seem like such a straight rip.

WhiteLightning responds:

As I seem to be entirely incapable of expressing, I thought this entire thing up from start to finish, and while I enjoy Steele's work, I was NOT intending to imitate him in any way. Seeing as I apparently did, though, I guess I'll have to make a conscious effort to avoid such similarities in the future. As for this one, I can handle a one-time mistake if it gets me 150+ Youtube subscribers and still makes people laugh :)

[POP! an adventure]

That was great!

The animation was super fluid , playful, and the music matched it perfectly! I loved the story, but you might have been better off with just sound effects and facial expressions rather than the main character explaining his emotions. The reason I didn't give it a perfect score was because of the not so great setup for capturing frames, but that seems like a fairly easy fix. Can't wait to see what you two do next!

turtleco responds:

It would be an easy fix if I had an army of Korean children.
