UPDATE
--------------------
SPOILER ALERT!

due to the fact that the audio isn't very good, and many ppl didn't understand the characters, I'm posting the dialogues.

Caveman: munch-munch
Kid: Dad!
C: What?
K: I don't like granma.
C: Ok, just eat your potatoes.

Dude: Whazzup?
Caveman: Good.
C: I have to get one of these cellphones one day.

At last I managed to finish this one!

Some words about the movie:

This is my FIRST flash submission to NGs and my FIRST animation EVER! So please be fair and give me your comments, remarks.
This is a pilot episode for a series i'm thinking of continuing if i get good feedback, or bad if only they are with helpful remarks.
The series will consist of short episodes that follow the life of a caveman (homo erectus species).

I know that at the second part the audio is horrible, but I rushed it to finish it. Also the I tried to lip-sync but it's not perfect because it's an embedded video on flash and the sound isn't perfectly synchronized w/ the video.
I hope to solve all these on my next submission.

PLEASE leave a review!

Peace!
M.

For your first flash, this is very good. I liked the animation style, it's pretty unique, however the quality of the video brought it down a notch. One thing you really need to work on is the sound quality. I couldn't understand what was being said because the music was too overpowering, and there was too much white noise. Work on that and I'm sure your flashes will improve greatly!

Author's Response:

Both of these issues are because I used many different programs for this one (flash, anime studio, sketchbook, imovie) and tried to combine them. These wont be an issue to my next submission as I'm now working on a single prog.

Anyway thanks for checking and reviewing!

"not so proudly presents?"

date: April 12, 2008

if you know it is not completed and you have things to fix, why in the world do you submit? why did you rush to finish it?
on a positive note the intro sequence was very good and quite masterful.
that scene in the cave was surely garbage and the author notes tell us why.

April 13, 2008

Author's Response:

Because I've spent too much time on that and I wanted to move on to something new. (the not so proudly presents is a joke, it has nothing to do w/ that)
I hope you refer to the audio as garbage, I admit that, and not to the animation because I've spent much time on that, and it's not garbage. Thanks for the score, i hope you liked it a bit.
