[Here Goes Nothing!]

A very neat sample of what's to come

You being a fan of the game, you obviously you put more effort in the L4D animation bit. It was well done.

Let's see if you can incorporate some impressive voice acting later on.

A decent recording mike shouldn't be too expensive.

For a first flash, it is rather impressive!

___

-it was a bit short and lacking in sound
-it wasn't so much focused on movement animation.

+the lip-syncing was pretty much on cue
+impressive use of colors
+your artistic abilities really show through

Sabtastic responds:

Aw, thanks! XD

As soon as Christmas break rolls around, I'll possibly be able to buckle down into something with an actual plot. There's going to be nothing to do. lol
Let's hope I can get my hands on some good audio if I actually decide to do that! :D

Also, since you mentioned it. movement is something I plan on practicing more in the next ones. Now that i've got a feel for Flash in general, I can work with it a little more effortlessly next time around.

[Charcoalmation]

Pretty cool dude.

Although I feel that because it was charcoal, drawing this and animating at the same time must've been quite tiresome.

Mistakes probably often occurred.

But you know...this is still not bad. Sure there have been others done better but this is the first I've seen in an attempt to use something messy as charcoal.

I wonder....Why not give Oil Painting animation a try?

Can you imagine the beauty of it all!

Captain responds:

Oooo I like the sound of that, not sure how well it would actually pan out though. Might play with that in the future :P

[Colouring ma world]

A sudden ending to a potentially great loop

This idea could be incorporated into so many ideas!

It's just a feat of great imagination to express more to a gray photograph.

I know someone who would really appreciate this work of art and might even attempt it in paintings.

[Table Top]

The lyrics are impressive and catchy...

The animation was extremely poor.

Keep this idea in mind and consider re-doing this with your new skills.

However the concept of getting on with pre-pubescent virgin girls is a questionable image in your music video.

You might want to consider some re-editing of the lyrics.
Though you have every right to keep it as is.

[The Will of One]

This music video did not have to be in sprite

Furthermore...I am a bit displeased with the lead singer and his broken voice when reaching high notes.

BUT....you did "nail" the song well at the Cross scene. Where I also realize the potential the visuals could've been if it wasn't a sprite animation.

Please reconsider doing this again with full throttle animation. And improve your singing voice just a little bit.

This does have potential as a Rock Anthem. But it needs some work.

[Closing In]

A distopian theme that is a bit played off.

To enforce law over trivial details has been done countless times.

And I felt that the scenes were not well applicable to the music itself.

Too calm for a perfect Matrix style bass beat of action and explosions.

But I did like the animation and music in the credits.

[Brush Your Teeth]

Should be played at every dentist office!

Now I have a reason to never forget a night to brush my teeth.

A great song!

Good animation!

[Squares -simple as that-]

I've never seen Squares move so "Smoothly" - LOL

It was watching a geometry assignment having a jazz party.

Nothing but perplexing beats of jazzy feats.

An the squares proving that they 'ain't no squares' when it comes to shaking their 'edges'.
