What a beautiful story. :P

Rutger responds:

Thanks dude :3

Cute

reminded me of Adventure Time, but only a little.
Good job!

Rutger responds:

That's an awesome comparison! :D
Thanks!

Story good, animation lacking

The story and music were pretty good in this animation. It felt like one of those cutesy fairy tale type of things but with a more mature twist on it. I don't know how to describe it but I did indeed like it.

The artwork was alright as well. It fit the tone of the story and it was very colorful and fun to look at. As stand-alone art it was pretty good. However when you tried to mix it with the simplistic animation it brought everything down. I realize more of the focus was on the story in this movie, but that doesn't mean the animation had to be as simple as it was. If you plan on making more of these I would put more animation into it. It doesn't have to be the greatest animation, but more of it would really enhance the stories you want to tell.

Overall a nice story with animation that left much to be desired.
3/5

Rutger responds:

Alrighty then. I'm gonna add more animation in the next episode, it's already written...
Thanks!

I agree with Starving Stomach...

it could have used more actual frame by frame, but the art was excellent and de-emphasised the lack of animation. would have been hard to animate such detailed characters as well, unless you took a leaf out of johnny utahès book and simplified the characters during frame by frame sequences like in facebook 'n' twitter.

also would have enjoyed some personalized character voice acting, or even if the narrator made some odd squeeky voices along to some more precise lip syncing. just would have involved me in the experience more. nonetheless, it was a very good piece of work, and all my suggestions are just unnecessary, albiet helpful, improvements that COULD be made, if you so wished.

ps. i move my hands if im emphasizing something while i talk or explaining something or giving directions...:)

Rutger responds:

Hmhmhm, yeah, I might try that, thanks for the tip :3
We chose especially chose NOT to do personalized character voice acting, because we'd rather leave that to your imagination (:

hahah nice job

XD i liked you characters, very creative! good choice for the voice actor too!

Rutger responds:

thanks! :3
