This was my first animation dealing with sound. Some of the effects are a bit off but not by much. As is I like the timing with the exception that the type gets hard to catch in some spots. It's early in my animation career so any feedback would be much apreciated.

Very very cool, and very funny as well. I don't understand the anything below a 7 on this peice, people just don't know what they are talking about. Keep up the good work!

Graphics
Nothing impressive here, it's just Pong. Haha.

Style
I like the approach of it all.

Sound
Not really much sound. I'm glad to see that you picked up on some of your own mistakes. The timing on some of the sounds was off, but not that bad. Not that bad at all.

Violence
Eh-- fantasy violence. Sure, he got blasted by a wave of energy but I think implosions are sweet. Try reading some Shakespeare if you want violence. Lol. I'm kidding, it was average violence.

Humor
I didn't expect that ending. I figured the guy was just wearing a costume; I know I do that a lot (wear costumes, that is). It caught me offguard so it was funny. The element of surprise can be used in so many different ways.

Overall
I liked it. Keep up with your work. If you think it can be better without having to scrap the entire thing then shoot for that maybe. Don't forget to experiment with different things. You may find an easier way to do something or you may find something really cool you like. Good luck with all future animations.

"funny"

date: February 28, 2006

It was funny. A nice little short. It obviously wasn't meant to be much, but it's good. There are alot of pong spoofs out there, mostly crappy. This is a breath of fresh air for the flash community. A very small file, fairly short movie, but still quite funny. It just goes to show that extravegent flashes aren't always the best.
