^^Good Points^^
You definitely had good graphics in this. I liked the animations, they were pretty good, even the running animations, which I know are hard to do. I also liked the music. I didn't go with the carnage, but at least it went with the sunny day.

^^Needs Improving^^
I'm not sure exactly what to say. It was a little random and a little bit sick, not quite sure I liked it that much. It is really short, which I expected, but not too satisfying either.

Yeah these Jay shorts are pretty much ment to be random shorts of things Jay thinks of and I animated.
The Jay vs. Val and The Duders are much better.

"Some good quality, but needs improving."

date: July 22, 2007

Graphics for this were quite good. They didn't need to be incredibly amazing, and they weren't terrible either. However, the grass and sky was too plain. Maybe adding a little more shading and clouds would help.

Jay himself was very well drawn, however the feet didn't look very consistent. The head was definitely the best part. However, the red bits around his teeth made them look like they were floating.

The way in which you changed the angles was fluidy done, but could use a few more angles in between to make it that little bit smoother.

Loved the little tune playing through the flash. Added a great feel to it. However, the running sound effect did get annoying after a while.

To Improve....
I'd add a bit more animation, such as at the end, show Jay actually eating the dog. A bit of back story on why Jay likes to eat dogs would also help boost your score. People like story lines. So next time, maybe try something about a disturbed childhood.

Good luck in future.

"Short, sweet and sick"

All at the same time, which is quite impressive. I'm not really a fan of the music, as it sounds like it goes out of tune every now and again.

I think you've put quite a bit of effort into the drawing of Jay and then slightly less into drawing things like the dog. For me, it showed, as it didn't seem so smooth, but why would it if you were just going to kill it off a few frames later.

I'd personally like to see it being a little longer, as you coudl make it up to about half a minute longer and still get away with calling it a short. Maybe Jay stops when he sees the dog, then tries to call it over. When it doesn't come, he leaps on it and makes it into dinner. Maybe a few little sound effects, to make the music a little secondary, like a slash of the knife, a thud as he lands on the floor etc.

Little touches that make all the difference, but it's worth having a think about.

"Strange"

by: Kyuumi

Ok... that was really abnormal, I liked it but it needed more sound effects, like when he drawn the axe, I wonder what Jay #2 would be about...

July 19, 2007

Author's Response:

Jay's mind is screwed up from all his medication. It could be about anything...

But next time, make it longer.. it was all pretty random and it made me smile, but I suggest you spends more time and effort on your next one(s).
At the end, I must tell you: "You are sick! Sick!"

Author's Response:

Personally I don't really like dog. I'm more of a snake/grasshopper person.

"Right..."

date: July 19, 2007

That was really quite random... did make me laugh a bit at the end.

One thing that I'd reccomend to rework though would be the walking animation, it looks a bit jerky. The sound was great though, it made the movie just that little bit funnier.

Author's Response:

Yeah I've never been good with the whole walk thing.
