Reviews for "14 Billion Years of Light"
Very nicely done
This was fun to watch, and I liked the various styles of art and such used.
One problem I had was with the loader. It didn't work right.
Noice work.
This was a pretty good glimpse of the universe, I thought. The only problem I had was the somewhat outdated Newtonian models of the atoms. You seemed to be trying to represent everything from the most basic particle on up to the most complex systems but electrons and protons aren't actually fundamental particles. Also, electrons don't really orbit like that... How to represent that in a flash? Don't ask me...
RogueHyena responds:
Oh man! I agree wholeheartedly. I actually asked my gf, "How would you represent a muon symbolically in a cartoon?" Naturally, she just stared blankly at me. This was a case of "know your audience" and my audience here consists mainly of 16 year old white males from the US...so I stuck with a lazy Bohr/Rutherford model. Props to you for picking up on it though.
Too long for such a bland movie but good
The length plus the lack of color made me ex out of it after like 3 minutes, but it was pretty good despite that. I know what you were trying to do, but it wound up almost putting me to sleep, you would've been better off with color. Good Job anyways.
RogueHyena responds:
Good advice. I'll go back to colour for my future movies.
Nice job
A clever and intriguing poiece of flash
One thing that was "bugging" me through some of the movie was the kind of "negative photo" image of space and the stars which you had made, with the stars being black and the space between being white. You were probably doing that for artistic purposes IMHO it would have looked better with the space being black.
Anyway overall it is top notch stuff, I give it a 4.
RogueHyena responds:
Looks like MeltingClock beat you to that observation. I'm inclined to agree about the issues with colour and negative imaging, so I'll avoid that in future. Thanks for the review!
