This is my 2nd entry to Newgrounds. My 2007 Christmas card, late for Christmas, early for 3 Kings Day!

"An impressive example of Holiday Cheer!"

date: January 2, 2008

Wow! The sheer length of this piece alone is an impressive example of the work that went into this Christmas Card. There are three distinct music changes, not to mention the sound layering! The detailing is fantastic! The black sheep, The "Holy Day Inn," the wise man's twitching moustache... I catch something new with each additional viewing! Great Card, can't wait to see what you put together for next Christmas!

"Not bad"

date: January 2, 2008

Cute E-card Type animation. some of the animation was particularly painful, like the camels walk cycle and way the sheep looked like they were sucked into a vortex when they jump over the Shepard.
The static swirls on the hillside when the camera panned was jarring, but I'm assuming that was an artistic choice
Aside from that. It was a nice little toon.

But keep at it, Im sure you skills will improve with age.

"good xmas card, average overall movie"

by: bob

It's a little too happy for my taste. The scream and other sounds you used are hilarious, though i don't think you intended them to be? And some of jokes were a little too knee-slapping for me. A good beginner flash, which is a shambe because you've been doing this for soooo long. I liked your unpublished (on NG anyway) 12 days of Christmas better, because it had whimsy. This was a great family Xmas card, but too slow paced to be much more than that. Needs to be edgier to suit me.

"What great talent!!!"

date: December 31, 2007

It doesn't matter if it really has a religious theme to it, only that its interesting to watch and shows how much work you put into it. Keep it up, you have great potential!!
