[a lovely day]

crude yet very stylish im confused

This animation was a good example of how something can be crudely drawn and unpolished and still be good in its own right. Good choice of music and overall good concept. I guess the only thing that i would desire would be something a little longer. With something not as detailed as this you can really afford to put another couple days and really add to the substance without losing alot of sleep. Overall good little flick and worth the viewing, continue with this style its quite refreshing.

nice series

I must say i was pleasantly surprised by how long the clip turned out to be. Anyways good characters, dialogue was good, the lip syncing was sharp and the pacing was good. From an optimizing standpoint you could probably do away with going over board on gradients on some instances. For example during the driving scene where they are listening to music.. you could get away with not using gradients on the trees passing by... itll bump down your file size some. Also work on making your backgrounds as strong as your characters at some points they seemed neglected. Good job and keep em coming

Hey thanks Big Lou- I'll definitely change the backgrounds and shit to cut down the file size- I didn't realize that gradients slowed stuff down- Thanks again

refreshing

very different approach to the hole violence in school from what i did but im quite pleased with what i see here its very cynical and cleverly drawn and presented.. and yes that gun sure is well drawn.. excellente job-o... if i had to be picky id say choose a less generic crowd sound.. the one your using is too "crowded room of adults in an auditorium" if that makes any sense.. it doesnt feel like a school atmostphere sound .. but thats minor really.

NewEvolution responds:

Holy shit...I'm impressed. It actually IS the sound of a conference on real-estate or something like that. There are surprisingly few sources on the web for crowd sounds, and that's the best I could find, not having a suitably portable digital recording device. Perhaps I should have sped it up a bit to give it a higher more "young adult" tone?

sharp stuff

well, as usual you dont disappoint damian.. good job.. the structure and flow is indeed better than the first.. if i HAD to be picky.. wait time was a little long for a file that size maybe you could get away with preloading less frames or something anyways good job.. you have my 5

Thanks, Luis. That's a good idea to have the last bit stream. I'd just hate for the 56k ers out there to not get the full effect, you know.
