"Interesting sentiment..."
date: January 23, 2005
The artwork needs some work, but I'll have to give you credit for your visual effects, good idea incorperating photoshop. A couple of pointers: smooth out the frog's movement & draw it's tongue a bit thinner, Have the frog's eyes track the fly. Your audio was a bit overmodulated, keep an eye on your audio levels next time. Try adding some sound effects like a whip crack for the sound of the frog's tongue, and a buzzing that changes in pitch & volume according to the fly's proximity to the frog. If you have a VCR, try recording some cartoons/animation you like & then pause the tape during playback to get a good look at the artwork; this is a way to actually see how some of the little tricks are done to make your art/animation more effective, a simple line here, or a bit of shading there can actually add quite a bit to the whole picture. I found the sentiment at the end interesting. Good luck with your next project.
Author's Response:
thank you, its an old animation, relatively speaking, so i really wasnt very good with FBF(which is what the forgs tounge is). If i had to re-do it id put minor sounds in and definitly re-draw the frog as well as the background.
