[Lunestas at Night]

okay..

Th audio was perfect being ambient, soft and suitable for your animation. Although the animation could have been longer plus an improvement on the fireworks would have been nice.

[[SF] Stick Fight #2]

wat the

That was it? I suggest a more suitable and dynamic visual presence to be coupled with such great music.

SubmitFlash responds:

yah.. this is not my best work.

[Stick Fight Tutorial]

lol

even tho i didnt read all the text, i found this tutorial quite entertaining and funny. Well Done

[liquid sharp and dead]

Kept me hooked

Very entertaining stick fighting. Your style has a few elements that are unique but besides that you have executed it very well.
The animation choreographing is smooth, with good transitions to other frames and events. Effects following action such as the flashes are performed very well and is well suited to the feel of the flash, along with the audio. Although as detailed as your stick figures are, there is no real connection with the environment. The background and terrain needs to be more detailed, as detailed as the stick figures themselves. The interactivity with the terrain is also very static and needs to be polished. Refining your credit ending would also help create more impact for this flash. You also need to be slightly more clearer as to story tell what fighting sequence or action is going on since some scenes were left behind with confusion.
Other than that, your animation skill has a very big potential. I hope you will blow us away with someth,ing as visually entertaining as this and something we've never seen before. Looking forward to the next.

[LL - Looking Evil.]

wow

I'l say that for 6.2 MB was not worth it. Perhaps you might like to reduce audio file sizes. Besides that, the animation was very smooth in terms of the transition into the 'lock' looking evil.
The music coupled here is very effective and well picked; although for such a static single frame, there are moments where the audio and image did not quite fit. The numerous highs and lows in the audio called for a more dynamic animation-audio relationship.
Your animation skills here are without a doubt very pleasureble to watch although there just wasnt enough of it. Im looking forward to something more spectacular in your next entry and hope youll blow us away with it.

Thanks a bunch for the review.
I do tend to put my skills into something big and I too hope to blow you all away with it.
Thanks again for the review :3

[Faking teh Halloween]

Clear

There may have been some insider joke embedded here but the message you are delivering is very clear and well done.
The choreographing is fairly good, and you take advantage of your skills by maximising the movement of still frames as well as implementing effective and appropriate audio. Pacing is a little slow and speeding things up would have given a more effective punch line.
There is polishing needing to be done here but overall im not too disapointed in this.

[Jazz Festival]

Very entertaining

This was a joy to watch and listen to. The jazz music coupled with bright, bold images is quite a successful match.
Although, your build up towards the full blown concert at the end wasnt quite as convincing and exciting. The concept and message, on the other hand, is quite clearly and well presented.
Very good, although holding the last scene for a longer period would have given this flash, and event involved, a much larger and significant impact.

[AWRD v2]

Interesting

Your audio background loop was very nice, although it needed to connect properly. Your animation style is very smooth and consistent with the audio although visually the detail was lacking.
Backgrounds need refining and perhaps a more fruitful insight into different cultures would have been more of a pleasure to watch. After all that build up of respect and admiration for all these cultures explored you can then successfully bring in the punch line with the traveller getting blown away by the NG tank.
This needs much polishing in order to bring out the full potential of this flash. I hope your next entry will be something visually spectacular and simply blow us away.

JKE responds:

Thank You! I'll try next time!

[Midday in Rand0mverse]

Nicejavascript:submission_controller.GetReviewCont

This is just like the story of the Grasshopper and the Octopus. All year long the grasshopper would bury acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfiend and watch T.V. Then the winter came, and the grasshopper died and the octopus ate all his acorns, and also got a racecar!. . . Is any of this getting through to you?

Haihaine responds:

Yes. It makes perfect sense. Just like my flash, although not as deep and world altering.

[Merry Madness 7 TRAILER]

Stiff

Your animation style is very static. Ease movements as they come to a stop and give attention to the details. The red santa madness's foot for example did not adjust for his horizontal landing, but instead remained angled as it always then remains.
The drama and intensity from this trailer stems from its audio alone. Visually it was a letdown neutralising its build up.
Trailers give us something as to what to expect and there is much room for improvement in this.
I hope you blow us away with something spectacular in what this trailer is leading to.
