After two weeks of work it is finally finished. This animation will hopefully be the start of a new series, therefore we'd like to get as much feedback (reviews, pm's, mails whatever :)) as possible. Unfortunately the project had to be rushed a little near the end because I'm leaving the internets for half a year. The song used is 'October' by U2.

Cheers Newgrounds,

"Interesting"

The good parts: The graphic were nicely drawn. What impressed me a lot was the leaf scene with the bullet going through it. I could see that you are very good with drawing and animating there. As for the music: I´m a big U2 fan so obviously I loved the song. But even if I wouldn´t have been one I would still like it. It gave the movie a bit of a sad atmosphere which suits it perfectly.

Now as for the bad parts, I couldn´t discover much to be honest. There were a few scenes where the drawings looked less good than in others, but I suppose that´s cause you rushed it in the end.

Overall 8 out of 10, 4 out of 5. I usually don´t like prologues, teasers and previews all that much, but this was an interesting one. It deffinatly made me curious about this new series. What I do hope is that this actually WILL be turned into a series, unlike so many other previews of movies here.

^^Good Points^^
This was a really good piece you have here. I thought the music fit really well, especially during the flashback scenes. I really like some of the visual effects you put into this to make it sync with the music and look very professional. Looks like if you make a full version it will be pretty cool.

^^Needs Improving^^
It moved kind of slowly. Not sure what other people think about this, but I got kind of bored towards the end. Great job though.

"~REVIEW~"

I loved the mood you set for this movie with the song from U2, it fit perfectly. I also liked how you paid attention to small little details, even though you did mess up a little on the feet. I'll probably review your first episode cause when I start reviewing a series I usually review every movie in that series.

"Dark and Moving"

Well, that's certainly stirred up something within me. I love the way you've worked it and the flashbacks / soft focus has been used really nicely. How long must we wait for the next instalment?

What I've really got to ask about your animation style is really how have you missed a fine detail to do with the feet of the Assassin? When someone walks, there should be flexing between the toes and ball of the foot. Watch someone walk for you and you'll notice. The assassin's footsteps looked like he was walking with two wooden legs, which isn't pretty. That's the only real fault with your animation I can find.

I look forward to seeing and reviewing the first episode proper of this series.
