"That was awesome. :D"

Animation/Graphics - I really enjoy your style of animation. Everything was drawn very good and you did a good job on backgrounds and colors. The animation it self was pretty smooth. All around good job in this area of the flash.

Story/Content - This was really funny. It may have been only 67 seconds, but you packed a lot of humor in those 67 seconds. That's what makes it so funny though. I love the idea of making a movie shorter like this. Kind of reminds me of the idea that I had for a Gone in 60 Seconds movie that a friend and I were going to make. Hell, perhaps we will still make it sometime. Obviously it would be just around 60 seconds.

Audio - You did a good job on the voices. There weren't any spots that sounded too loud, too quiet, staticy, etc... Good music playing in the background also.

Overall - A funny idea for a flash and a funny flash. Good job.

Yeh, I've been trying to improve my animation quality since Nothing But Random.
I'm glad you found it funny, I really like hearing peoples reactions to my flash.
And I think this is probably the first flash without any audio problems at all! Now I just have to record all my other flash like this. :P
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

"::Condensed Shakespeare::"

This was a brilliant little animation. It tried to cram in all of Shakespeare's Hamlet into a minute or so of schizophrenic animation. The artwork was nice and had a brilliant style to it, it worked really well with the fast pace of the animation.

::Overall::
This was great, it felt a little rushed and all over the place but it mixed well with the concept of Shakespeare in a minute (or so). Great animation.

Yeh, well, I guess it's definitley something to bear in mind for the next one. Probably either King Lear or Midsummer Night's Dream. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanls for the review. :)

"Pretty good."

date: February 8, 2009

I love Hamlet, and I think you did a good job of condensing it to little more than a minute, but you left out the Queen's death (Rosencrantz & Guildentstern's too). Also, he does not give his famous "To be, or not to be" speech while holding Yorick's skull. I know I'm being picky, but once again, I love Hamlet.
I did enjoy it, though. Good job.

Author's Response:

Well, I've learnt everything I know about Hamlet from The Reduced Shakespeare Company, and The Lion King, and asorted pop-culture references, so I guess I was always gonna miss quite a lot out. That's been the case with practically all my Shortened Shakespeare ones, hell, I managed Julius Caeser in one scene.
Thanks for the review, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

"Good"

It's well done, but I'd accelerate it a bit and overdo the "acting" and voice work. That would probably make it much better.

February 9, 2009

Author's Response:

Thanks. What d'you mean by "accelerate it", like make it faster, cut between scenes quicker? I'll try to work it into my next Shortened Shakespeare.
