Reviews for X's Awakening

[Rylord]

First Flash? Pretty Good!

For your first flash this is Awesome! I can see where you tried some more complex stuff, and I think it some places, it worked (ex. Smoke from X's capsule). The sound effects were also done well (but make sure to watch your sound levels!). I really want to see more from you, so heres a list of stuff to look out for next time.

Animation means being ALIVE:
In several places, all your characters just stand still and blink (the talking parts). Remember that changing shots, or animating character gestures will help deliver the dialouge better as well as keep the viewer intrested. This is even more important when there is alot of dialouge (like in your moive).

Speed it up:
Some of the animations (alot of the fighting) was a little slow paced. I'm assuming because this was your first flash, you didn't play around with ajusting the framerate. Try making little flash movies to test beam movement and getting a good feel for timing in animation. Don't be afraid to turn the framerate up to 18 or even 24 fps.

Reading??! READING!??!! WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS? THE INTERNET?!:
At the beginning, put a spot to skip through the text. Some people read faster than others, and waiting for the text can be boring.

Keep up the Good Work!

Good idea, but...

There are a few problems. Frist, the voice acting is terrible. The voices don't fit the characters at all, and there is no personality, it's all monotone. It would have been better to just use text. Secondly, the script is poorly written. They're not speaking true to their game personalities, and the plotline has a few small holes in it. On the plus side, the music is good and the graphics are very nicely done. I'd like to see a followup like maybe the things that happened in between 1 and 2, with these little things fixed. Not bad overall, just needs work.

I see potential.. much potenial...

While your character animations.. were very static. For the one framers you did a good job at drawing the characters.. but alot of these "drawings" were just based off offical artwork. There really isn't anything original except where you placed the characters and scenary. If you were planning to use this method as some sort of style.. I mean.. it was pretty good.. but.. you need to "enchance it a bit more". For original art.. really I gotta give you a 4-5 for atleast being able to trace and MegaMan I could give a nice 8. Yet your characters are very very.. much static. I mean I get a kick out more off a stick movie o_O. Voice acting.. I can't kill ya for it but alteast fix the sound of the voice. The quality was insanely horrible.

I say you have a better shot using the "sprite" animations as basis for the animations of X and Zero and use the same artistic skill you use to draw them to make the animations. Yet I can see you probably don't have the skill since you haven't practice drawing as much.

I will give you an 8 alteast on "story" you had a great idea, it was just poorly executed. I mean alteast you are working on a movie in a way. Like I mean some of these backgrounds I am pretty sure you must of came up from the top of your head. Which if you did I give you props. Also.. while I like the fact you are making this.. is sorta sad for me to say you are a tad bit to late to make a fanfic as Capcom Finally offically did their "x" awakening on "Irregular Hunter X".

And the thing that gave it away the most is that you kept using mid 90's megaman x artwork and then the most recent artwork.

It's like piting MegaMan and MegaMan X sprites with each other.. it stands out like a sore thumb! Anyways.. don't give up but I do say go back and highly redo this movie. It has potential. Just don't give up on some negative feedbacks.

there were a few inconsistencies.

one inconsistency was that zero wasn't discovered until AFTER x became a maverick hunter. another was that none of the other reploids were created until AFTER x's activation. regardless, you did a good job of making this flash.
