urbfilms's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Because]

I have to say, this video was very relaxing for the most part. You really knew how to merge the music with the animation. The ending was also very unsettling, which is what I think you were going for, however, it was a bit hard to understand the story of the video. For the actual animation itself, try doing full animation. I mean, try to key out the poses, and try to fully animate them. It would definitely benefit the video, and make it seem more "alive." Also, to eliminate those black bars at the side of the video, make the stage size for your animation 800 x 450 pixels. You definitely have a spark, so try to keep going! You have great directing chops!

Animation, Backgrounds, and your use of color were pretty great!
Some positions the characters were drawn in at the beginning were pretty awkward. Also, the ending just didn't do it for me. Also, a tip, make your line art a little bit smaller. It'll make a huge difference in artwork.
Other than that, it was pretty good! Keep at it!

[School Animations: 2014]

I must say, great artwork, and great use of color! Although, I would have preferred it if you fully animated health insurance. Also, for the other ones, I noticed your heavy use of tweens, and gradients. However, it was probably because you had a severe deadline, as you said in the description.
Great job! You made school animations more interesting!
Also, pretty great music choice! Although, I'd avoid uploading these animations on YouTube because of their Content ID thing going on.

MistyE responds:

Thanks for the review!

[Wat. - Face]

Nice job on this! The animation was excellent, and you've improved by a lot!
The animation flows quite smoothly, and it has a distinctive style! I loved this!

Also, Tom Fulp put this on Follow Friday. Good Job!

[Sonic vs Mecha Sonic (Preview)]

Good effort! I like the sprite animations, and it's always nice to see people do those. However, the back grounds were pretty bland, and the beam animation was kinda slow. Also, I was kinda disappointed in the lack of explosion animations in this movie, as all of them were live action. But it was a great effort!
Good Luck! Keep improving!

[Gronch Animated Christmas]

I enjoyed this. The characters were nice, and fully animated, and I especially liked the perspective in the frames. I can tell you put some time into this, as it's frame by frame. Also, the backgrounds were quite nice. Just one piece of advice, though, the first thing your eyes go to when starting this film is the head of the Grinch. And the head isn't shaded, and, while I realize that you shaded the body, and Max, the head of the Grinch isn't shaded, and would be nice if it was. Good job!

VortexVisionz responds:

Thanks man im glad you enjoyed this. I made this cartoon a couple of years ago so I have improved alot with my newer work. I will consider shading my characters though since it does seem to atract the eye a bit more. Thanks again

[GameGrumps: Punch Out]

Not bad, I liked it! The art style was quite nice, and the moment you chose was amusing! Try fully animating it next time, though. I'm not sure if it'll ruin the "Game Grumps Animated" feel, but it would be nice. Also, you should try shading the characters in the foreground. I noticed that you shaded the characters in the background, but not in the foreground. It'll add depth to the characters. The art style was enough for me to really enjoy this, though! I'm adding you to my favorites!

pandapandas responds:

thank you for the feedback!
i will try the shading next time :d

[PS4 vs XBOX ONE]

Well, it's not bad, but the audio quality was really an issue. I think I know the problem, though. In Flash, click - File- Publish Settings- and change it so that Audio Stream and Audio event say: MP3, 160 kbps, Stereo. Without it, audio will sound very muffled
Also, try experimenting with colors more, and try to make them look interesting. Try shading objects more, and try getting out of your comfort zone!
Not a bad effort at all! Keep improving!

nuclearacid responds:

Thank you, i've been wondering how to impove audio quallity.

[The Client's Always Right]

I've never seen anything quite like this before. It was very unique, and I really enjoyed watching it!
The voice acting was great, and the voices fit the characters very well I might add, the animation was smooth, and the art style was unique! The story was nice and simple to understand, and I just really loved this! The color choice was also very easy on the eyes!

I really have to give you kudos for this! This was great!

Gerkinman responds:

Hey thanks, im glad you enjoyed it! Im still very proud of this piece!

[Duck Hunt]

I really liked it! The animation was good and smooth, and the rap was catchy too! Good job!
