B & W
To see a movie in only black and white is kind of rare. And I think it's nice to see som hand made graphics. Though the story is a little crude, it's raised by the fact that you have painted it all.
Reviews for "I Was Almost Murdered"
generic and uninspired
oh, the classic "friendly dog is imagined as being scary creature".
not creative. anemic animation. artwork looked more like pencil sketches than finished frames.
i liked the voices actually. the title is good, provokes uncertainty. fitting sound effects.
average poetry.
this suks
what is that suposed to be a copy of what just about everybody does man I can dral a better movie
Matt-Merrill responds:
Not that many people have been doing hand-drawn animation (I think I've seen 2 or 3 on NG total) so I don't think you can say I'm copying what everybody else does.
If you want to "dral" a better movie, go for it. I would love to see it when it's done.
Meh..
Not good. I appreciate that you tried this mixture of mediums but you failed. The poem is lame and the drawings aren't that good at all. You attempted a horror flash and failed. I appreciate the effort, but it just wsn't up to par with the other horror movies on NGs.
Matt-Merrill responds:
It wasn't really a horror flash though. I wasn't aiming for it to scare anybody. And I'm still waiting for someone to tell me WHY my drawings are so awful. People keep complaining but never saying what's wrong with them. I am completely satisfied with them, they came out looking exactly like I wanted them to look. The perspectives are fine, there's a decent amount of detail. It doesn't look like a photograph, but I didn't want it to. So please, explain to me why they are so bad.
it wasnt what i really expeced
i guess i have a different taste of animation :/
