"Incredible"
date: November 18, 2009
I don't often write reviews on Newgrounds since the great majority of submissions simply aren't worth the effort. This flash video, however, is simply incredible. I've seen it at least 4 or 5 times now and still am amazed at how well constructed it is. Throughout the movie we're given glimpses of a fairy tale book with illustrations and cursive writing, hinting that this story is being read. But that transition between telling a story in the past to the wolf telling the story in the present was just stunning.
And the visual storytelling was spot-on. The uncle holding a key up with the malicious glint in his eye. The bloodied hand in the foreground after the corset fell. The animation of the wolf's powerful yet graceful movements. Nothing will beat that one shot you framed where the wolf if sitting with its head cocked slightly, eyes gleaming through hood's shadow, the eerie candlelight on the dresser, with a slow dolly-in.
You, my good sir, are not only a great artist, but also a true storyteller.
