Fro's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[CM - hello]

Nice showcase of work!

~ Animation/Graphics ~

This was a pretty decent showcase of work. I have no complaints over the animation or the graphics. You are a pretty good animator and have potential to make great work. I think something that could have made this a tad bit better would have been a detailed background instead of the simple colored background.

~ Story/Content ~

Like I said before a nice showcase of work. I hope to see the series that you use these characters hit the portal soon. Not really much more to comment about content wise since you were making this for the purpose of getting a feel for it and everything. What kind of series do you plan on making?

~ Audio ~

The voice was a little hard to understand, which is very understandable because of it being a robot voice and everything. I like the fact that you included subtitles! That makes it so much better to enjoy throughout the animation just in case you didn't understand something that was said.

~ Overall ~

I can't really give it a high score because of what it is, just a quickie, but I do think that if you continue your work you can create a successful series. Keep it up.

Not bad.

~ Animation/Graphics ~

The animation and graphics were great all around! Really simple stuff, but really well done. Like in every case there is a small amount of room for improvement, but if you stayed at your skill level I wouldn't have any complaints ever about your animating skills.

~ Story/Content ~

A nice little funny submission. I hope that nobody needs that explained to them. :P Since it was such a short flash and was good as a short flash I can't really critique your submission here either. So far your doing pretty good.

~ Audio ~

This is where you have room for improvement. I don't know if you did the audio on purpose or if it messed up, but either way it didn't turn out well. You should have had the voices throughout the entire thing and the background noise should have also played during the whole thing. If you did that on purpose then I think you should do it a bit different next time and if you did it by accident I hope you can get it fixed!

~ Overall ~

I didn't find anything wrong with this submission except for the audio. Good job.

Thank you for your review!
It's true that nobody should need to be explained, but I mentioned: "In the case you're little dummy" :D
So, about the audio, I admit that it's really crappy, I only picked up sounds on the web: I couldn't make voices cause WinVista's recorder only saves in *.wma, and, apparently, Flash does not support. If you know a good sound freeware, please tell me!

The perfect parody to the famous B.

~ Animation/Graphics ~

I don't know if I've ever seen something drawn so perfectly. The color red that you choice for the B was so perfect that it brought tears to my eyes. The curves reminded me of a beautiful woman on a warm sunny day on the beach. The positioning on the screen made this a art near perfect.. no it is perfect. I can't see anything wrong with it at all. In fact, that has to be the best looking B that I have seen since the original B itself.

~ Story/Content ~

When I look at this B it sends my mind a wandering. It takes me so many places. It's almost like reading a book with the perfect plot, twist, and ending. So hard to find, but so worth the wait. I know to the untrained eye that it may seem like nothing is really going on in here, but if you think about it sometimes nothing can be everything. It's very touching and deep. Deep like the bottom of the ocean, but at the same time it gives the sensation that your flying in the cool breeze hundreds of miles above the ocean. It's everything and nothing. Nearly impossible to explain any other way.

~ Audio ~

What needs to be said that hasn't been said in my review already? If you listen close enough, not with your ears, but with your mind and soul, you'll here the beautiful essence that we call B. It's like angels singing, birds singing in the morning when you first wake up, or a friendly voice of a loved one.

~ Overall ~

I can't find any faults and this deserves every word that I have written for it and much more. I could write all day if I had the time, but since I don't this is going to have to do for the moment being.

Thank you for understanding my inner-torment and appreciating my artistic statement.
