A-Genius's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Delura EP 005.02]

I really find it funny when you use google translate ... I just got confused when you translated "my knee hurt" to arabic. this message doesn't make sense in arabic.

anyways I liked the episode and I hope to see more from you in the future.

Heh, I purposely made them incorrect. One of the pieces of text says "boat nectar" :)

[Funny School Things Redux]

My Review for funny school things redux
-------------------------------------
-----------------------------

I liked your redux! it was nice to see new things from time to time.

*There were some jokes that were boring.

*I saw some jokes that made me laugh a bit because they sounded weird but I am didn't like it a bit.

*There are some old jokes that made me laugh a bit too but that was ok.

*Overall, it's quite good thing.

*I didn't yet found any easter eggs but I hope I find them soon.

-------------------------------------

My last words to you
-------------------------------------
-----------------------------
This comment is not that long I suppose.... :3

I hope you see my redux too it's not for my animation. it's someone's animation that I am collaperating with. "It is not finished yet!" ---- > although, I almost there to launch the thing I am not sure when will it be finished.

Aqlex responds:

Thank you for the review! I look forward to seeing the animation that you're working on as well. Send me a link when it's up!

To be far, your flash is a not bad... it need a few things though:

First, you need a Preloader and reply button:

If you do not know, you can just copy the get a ready Preloader from NewGrounds there you can add it to your flash and that is it. For the replay button, follow theses small steps:

1-Draw a small circle and write replay.

2-Convert your circle into a button and name it is property to btn_Reply.

3-Create a new layer in the beginning, âEUoeNOT ON THE BUTTONâEU.

4-Put this script inside the new layer at the end of the flash:

stop();

Btn_Reply.onRelease = function()
{
gotoAndStop(1);

}
.
5-btn_Reply is after the your button name in the property, âEUoeNOT THE SYMPOL NAMEâEU .

Second, you need to resize your flash size:

In the setting of your flash in NewGrounds, change the size of the flash to make it fit in newgrounds with no white look.

Last, it is better to use only one thing a graphic or a movie clip.

Because if you used both of them it may not work properly if someone by mistake pressed the forward button. This mean the reaction will go before your girl body.

Keep up the good work.

Ps. if you need any help you can just pm.

GamesR4FITE responds:

Thanks a lot for the response, I really appreciate it. :) When I was originally doing this, I just had plans to put it on youtube where of course buttons wouldn't work so I didn't bother putting them in. But on here, they're pretty much mandatory -_- I do indeed have no idea how to make one, but I can find some tutorials and try to fit one in. I was just so tired of working on this all day, I just wanted to get it up to show my friends lol.

And yeah I had issues with the size. I made it at 1280x720 but NG wouldn't let me upload it at that size, so I tried to figure out what a smaller size within the limits would be...alas I suck at math so I got it wrong lol.

The reason I used nested animations was because if I did it all on one layer I would have to move the mouths to the side every time she swayed, so I thought it was better if I put the lip sync animation inside the singer movie clip, and then just moved the movie clip. Unfortunately that created problems with it continuing to play afterward, but like I said I'm new at this. -_-

[Swelter]

I liked 3 things in this movie:

* The story.

* The music.

* The characters.

[Genius Cop v1.1]

HEY STOP USING MY NAME!

lol... Just kidding! ------> Not that serious look guy :P

Ok... First of all, I would like to say that I saw all you "Genius Cop" series and I must say I really found some changes in the two versions not much though.

Feedback about your flashes in general:
-------------------------------------
---------------

I see that you have an ambition on creating a series using flash. You know what is good about this program you can give it more nice effect if you just given it a bit, little, tiny more D.E.T.A.I.L (Delete and Eliminate Tommy Are Isolated Loser) Sorry about that I mean detail hopefully I didn't damage the idea. An example of detail is to give the characters some cartoony nose; I don't really know what kind of nose will fit your characters so you need to find out by yourself. You can do many things in flash. There is a whole world inside this small software. Use it, give it some effect and give it a life.

I just feel that it's a bit dull. I don't know maybe the problem wasn't with the animation anymore it's in the idea, the joke. Your joke needs to come in surprise and unexpected for example.

Feedback about your 2nd episode of Genius Cop:
-------------------------------------
----------------------------

About the voice of that cop in my opinion, I really thought that "RicePirate" really don't fit that cop because his voice fit for "Solid Snake" and "Tory". I think your voice was fit for that cop.

About your mistake in drawing that hand, it reminded me of my thumb mistake. I kept on making mistakes until my art teacher told me to keep looking at my fingers in the mirror while I draw them because when I look at my hands from my side I see it pointing in a different direction from what other people look at it.

Feedback about your 1st episode of Genius Cop is version:
-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
--

I didn't know there is a hidden seen in the two video until my mouse stepped on it which also mean that I didn't read "Author Comments" although I heard it from you because I don't really like to read long comments but love writing a long one :P.

some questions and advices:
-------------------------------------
-

I just wanted to ask you some notes about: what is your style in drawing? I know that you are going to say:" I Don't understand this ?.?" or maybe you will not even to going reply this. But, if you did replay on this, tell do you have your own methodology of drawing (commonly used), use similar to a known cartoon such as (Anime, Disney, South Park, etc). It's just curiosity.

You're really planed for everything (the timing, the music, the logo, etc) didn't you?

You know the word that they always say to beginner artist "practice, practice, practice". If you really want some tips about drawing, animating, which thing to choice you can ask me.... Unless this question was hard for me to answer ^_^!

Can you create a nice logo for my account? Because when I saw your sketch it was nice. Please send me your creation.

I hope my comment was helpful feedback and sorry about the long feedback.

"I like to telling a live story here. hehe :P"

Aqlex responds:

For some weird reason, I almost always avoid drawing noses unless I need them. It's just such a major part of my style that I don't know if I'm going to just start drawing noses. I do agree that the joke here was a fairly dumb one, I was aware of that when I was making this animation, and I'm definitely going to work on that more in the future. I'm glad you thought my voice fit the cop well, though! I'm not very confident in my own voiceacting abilities. About those two hidden scenes, they are meant to be hidden. I want people to either find them by accident or find them because they were looking for them, I don't want to just point them out. My drawing style is very influenced by South Park. I didn't even really realize it at first, but a lot of people pointed it out to me, and it actually makes perfect sense, as that is my favorite TV show. I'm addicted to it. And yes, I planned for all that stuff, although I never planned on the logo turning into what it ultimately became. I wasn't expecting to put that much time into it originally. About the logo, let's talk through personal messages about that one. Thanks for all the feedback dude! I love comments, especially long ones =).

[Avania: episode 2 part 3]

I just feel.......

miserable..... I can't voice act Q.Q.
That doesn't mean I give up voice acting in your Avania project but I do think I will not get the chance on being on this project which makes me more miserable...oh nooo I also forgot I have too much work to do which make me in a much more miserable....

oh COME ON Why this stupid feeling ? CONTROL YOUR SELF! I do it all the time .... also you really need someone do help you get your work in a better shape... it is not wrong to get some help? Can help with your project ? please :) I am an artist too I draw anime and I like anime... but I am not good enough for a big work :( .... I am still one the first steps of the female body shape :S I got the right prospects of the female but I still give her fat shape not like the pepsi bottle shape I give her a shape more like Pear.

Did you imagine your characters FAT ? :P I have just got this idea XD you can call this chapter the "what happens to my characters when I feel miserable."

anyway can I draw something ? animate something add anything so bored -_-
can I try to animate or something with you ? Please ! Please ! Please !

miserable feelings is the worst enemy of an artist so that is why I am offering your my help. or maybe because I am bored -_--!

I am giving you 6/10 because I wish I could see improvements. give your self more broader world to the flash animation. you can do more than sample things.

If I just can just give you a sample of what I can do.... but I have formatted my computer Q_Q I have only a very small work originally created by a friend of mine :P I will show it to you when I get into my computer in pm :F I hope that it help you get a small idea of what I am saying about broader world of flash animation.

Deer50 responds:

actually i'm not miserable about the voices. I'm miserable for another reason lol. I never decided I was going to quit the project because I got so many voice actors together. So you don't have to worry. O.O

[Avania: episode 2 part 1]

I know this isn't about background but...

I think I saw some quite nice backgrounds like:
+ the cloud background.
+the black tree behind that mystrious guy.
+the green bush. (it need just a little improvement)

I wonder where did the other part of the group gone. they were there in ep 1 part 3.

lol I think that was a good idea to remove some part of the unneccery things to low down the movies size.

there was some few drawings error but I just liked it , it made this movie a bit funny. :P <<-- I hope this doesn't let you down. (I know that you rushed to make this good piece of work.

you know.... you should give your self a longer time for you to create your next episode and try not to give it a drawings error as hard as you could.

Deer50 responds:

thanks :)
Actually the group was nearby but I just didn't draw them in :p

[The Enemy (ABS TOFA 2011)]

OMG THIS IS SO TRUE

This always happen to me when I try to create a flash :P.

Although my problem with flash was that I want my work to be near I keep saying "MY DRAWINGS ARE crap don't publish it.... I REPATE DO NOT PUBLISH YOUR PIECE OF CRAP!"

I am using my pencil to draw and I am still practice on human body Q_Q ! *Sniff* *Sniff*
Let's look at the bright side my drawings got improvised and I got a good art teacher :) .

At the end, my advice for you is keep improving your work to the better.

sorry if i didn't give you any intresting feedback :(

Hope one day I publish something worth it! Q_Q *Sniff* *Sniff*

Rob-Rage responds:

How do you think I felt? How do you think I still feel? I still struggle with feeling like I can't draw.

But you know what? I still fight it. And you should, too.

[My first Flash : Dino]

Nice flash

Its nice flash movie you got there!

I just want to tell you that the flash needs a loader.

However, it is good as a first flash.

What interested me a lot in your flash was the water scene I mean the one when they were near close to the water.

So, hope I see more flash from you!
