Mightydein's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A guy burns down a house for no reason]

The animation seemed fine to me for an early attempt at moving drawings at a higher frame rate.

You'll eventually get better at that exact frame rate and others.

Everybody's first attempts at animation isn't going to have the best level of detail control.

The trick with animation is strong powerful poses and the overall timing.

If you need to hold on a drawing for longer such as how it is spaced out.

That approach can work.

just remain persistent and do those animations that might be too fast or slow.

Once you adjust to the frame rate and find ways to make adjustments to make it work.

For lower frame rates. You can create movements using smears, squash and stretch techniques, broad motions and exaggeration.

Study comic books that have strong poses that create a sense of motion in a single image.

You can draw that way too and incorporate that as part of your animation vocabulary.

You can be much more fast and loose with lower frame rates.

Higher frames takes more drawings, longer holds or both to look right.

With more experience you gain more of an understanding on how to control these details with more precision.

The higher the frame rate. You space out the drawings a little less.

Lower rates. You space out the drawings farther apart and use an increased level of exaggeration to create the illusion of more drawings than their really.

Because the frame rate is lower. You have more time to look at the level of detail in the drawings.

Think of it as a slow burn and fast burn but with different things to work around.

Try out the different frame rates, play around with the timing, drawings and such.

You'll do just fine.

It's not the frame rate but how you draw it.

You can always do different kinds of cheats by holding on drawings for longer at higher frame rates.

While you are still inexperienced with 24 frames per second.

You'll get the hang of it and eventually kids will come to you for animation advice because you will be a new internet cartoon veteran someday.

Good luck and keep at it.

[The knife commercial]

I thought the cartoon was very silly and has bit of gory sense of humour.

The antics of a cut-up are to be expected from a flash cartoon about knives.

It's been a slice.

Ibiglarva responds:

I didn’t use flash to make this, at the time I was pretty bad with flash, and didn’t understand it so well, I used FlipaClip to make it instead which I thought the cartoon was okay. I am probably gonna cancel L.O.A and make a different episode cause I have lost my laptop a while back if you seen the post and I don’t have backups. I will make Land of awesomeness still, but I am working on a different series now.

[illwillpress in HD]

This was a pretty humorous parody about illwillpress reloading his old stuff but you forgot to spoof him opting out of awards.

[Animation paper Animations]

This was very cool animation and I really appreciate how you broke the complex forms down into much more controllable simple shapes and forms.

The animation in this movie is very careful, exact and planned.

It seems the extra steps of building your drawings have really paid off.

I didn't notice any mistakes or continuity errors.

Very inspiring stuff.

[west tree detour ep: adult b-side]

I really loved all the original characters in this movie and how they were direct competition in a sporting events competition.

This was a lot of fun.

[Duo Angel dance]

I really love the characters and the way that they move.

You got a lot of personality out of these girls in what is just basically a 7 second animated clip of dancing.

excellent character design.

[The Great Sleigh Escapade - EaB2cm S1 EP10]

This movie was a lot of fun to watch.

I really love the cute and simple design for these characters.

It was really interesting to get a real feel for their personalities in such a short amount of time.

I might have likely been missing some details that pervious episodes likely alluded to.

the story itself seemed to stand on it's own without completely understanding the more subtle extra details.

I would love to see more episodes of this show.

I'll have to check em out.

Keep animating.

[Pube Muppet Goes to Jail]

I really love the premise of pure muppet ending up in jail.

It has a lot of potential for humor

I found the title very eye catching because the pube muppet is a very unscrupulous character and a total pervert beyond comprehension.

I can imagine that certain aspects of jail would either make pube muppet very happy or extremely unhappy.

The very topic of the movie has much more room to tell more a complicated story than what you posted.

You got the nature of the pube muppet's changes down and his reactions to being in jail.

You forgot a lot of other details such as the pube muppet going to court and having him go to trial.

Puppet muppet hiring a lawyer to defend him from the most vile possible crime has a lot of potential on it's own.

puppet muppet hiring lawyer is just more than perfect for pube muppet goes to jail.

You can also handle how pube muppet can get himself into farther trouble while in jail such as being thrown into solitary confinement.

I'm basically over analyzing a very unsophisticated and goofy spam comedy movie but just only wanted to highlight the possibility of more comedy potential in your movie.

I thought it was pretty funny but going overboard on these kinda details would have made this movie even more crazy.

I loved it.

JackfruitClock responds:

Thanks for the suggestions, maybe I’ll try it in a part 2.

[Boob Trick]

This was some really decent character animation.

I'd be interested in seeing something by you that is much much longer that told more of a story.

maybe a music video or whatever.

Just something a bit longer that allows for more time to really soak in and appreciate your art work.

[woody]

I really love the sound and how you created a sense of fast motion by doing some smears in various single frames.

If were to pause this scene.

I would likely get a sense of emotion even within a single drawing.

great animation technique and I look forward to seeing a much longer piece from you.
