If thats ok, I'd hate to ruin your voice with my half-assed lipsyncing! I think it would be best to stay in the style as well if thats all coolio :)

Yeah sure. I don't quite know what your answer is... XD

Most of these shorts are pretty hilarious, and voters tend to lean towards that.

Yeah, but there's alot on the lower end on quality of animation when I've been sifting through.
Then again, i've only scratched the surface.

Basically wait till you get a slower day and submit mid to later in the day.

The daily winners usually get between 4.08 and lower so since this is a collab filled with decent work and a lot of members that'd vote 5, we'd stand a good chance of getting an award and a possible first place.

Ive learned days of the week do not make a difference. lol

4.08 is not a slow enough day.
Im thinking more along the lines of a 3.6-3.8 type of score.

And I highly doubt we'll get a daily first. lol
I was thinking more along the lines of 4th or 5th. :p

Indeed :D I'm probably not going to be a co-author, but i'm fine with that :) Buuttt... If I were to be co-authored, that would be awesome :D

I hope the lip synching is better :)

It just looks awkward right now.

I had that problem a minute ago, I'm still not entirely happy with mine :'( but.. i guess you could just change how long the mouth shapes are shown for, or you could tween the sizes of them about a bit i guess. Or you could hope nobody notices :3

Lol I can't live with that. :p

It's the last thing I have to animate as well. :c

I dunno why, but I can't stop watching that

At 6/14/09 08:25 PM, EJRProductions wrote: And Mexifry, just tween the mouth parts I guess. Make bigger mouth positions tween into small ones and small to big ones.

Or you could try to find a tutorial and copy the mouth movements.

It's not just the mouth movements that are my problem, it's also the jerkiness of it all.
I haven't lip synced in ages so this is prolly why it is so bad. :p

Im havin my good ol pal Nogfish take a look at it.

Same here man, same here. I really do not think that we have to worry about this getting a low score. I'm guessing that we'll get around a 4, which would be pretty cool. I'm going to give the list one final update in a little and then let the collab work itself out in the next couple of days.

Wow, I'm glad your putting so much effort into your part! To think it's only 5 seconds. I can't wait to see the final thing. :3

That's really good! The lip syncing is much better now. If you're all done, you can upload the FLA to MegaUpload and PM me the link to it!

Cool, thanks. I'm logging off, so don't worry if I don't reply. I'll check it out in mornin'.

Bleh Im done with this for now.

Any advice on what to change would be awesome.
Still not entirely happy with it.

Any rules against stupid-as-all-get out Pokemanz parodies?

What problems do you have with it? Please, do tell :)

It lacks originality and there are too many stupid video game parodies on NG.

Yeah. The art is good but it needs more originality. That way people think better of the collab and of the person that made the part.

Are you kidding me? Newgrounds eats up parodies like candy! There's nothing wrong with an *gasp* unoriginal part. Some people like parodies and will be enticed to watch more because of it.

Just look at the Street Fighter Collab. I BARELY found it funny, but it got so much attention because it was based on a video game.

Wrong, it got alot of attention because alot of the staff and popular artist did it

I know they do, but why sacrifice quality for something that is crap?

We didn't even see the animation for his part. You're just assuming it will be crap because it was based on a Pokemon game, but I see what you mean.
