Reviews for "Zimmi EP 1"

Cute

That cave reminded me of something. HMM.

It was very cute. In a very kids fable kind of way, not exactly my thing, but it kept my attention. The sound editing was very well done.

Rutger responds:

Of what? O:

Thanks man! Childish cartoons tend to be not everybody's thing :3

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 (:

Interesting piece

Certainly not the sort of thing that I'm accustomed to seeing around the place, but quite an interesting story line, nonetheless.

I like the animation style and how it all seems to fit together with the vocals, but they do tend to go a little quiet in places. Not to worry, as I know that these things can take some serious time to sort out.

The issues that immediately present themselves with the animation are that the mouth movements for characters talking are quite slow - if you watch a conversation between two people, they tend to move their lips quite a bit faster than Zimmi and Dwab, who I particularly noticed this with.

Rutger responds:

Zimmi and Dwob speak a very slow language. O:

Thanks :3

(title in work)

It was very good. A nice plot with very unique characters, and very colorful graphics to go along with it all. The music choices throughout were very good as well, and the narration was great. I thought it was a bit too campy honestly. The ending was just a bit too perfect for me, if that makes any sense.

Rutger responds:

The ending was a bit too perfect on purpose haha :3
Thanks man. What do you mean with campy?

I would say a cup of tea makes a good ending...

...but I am British :P
I love your animation style and combined with your colouring technique, it gave some nice finishing touches to the whole fairytale feel.
The story flowed really well throughout and although I wouldn't say that it was entirely my thing, it kept me watching to the end.
Plus you're very good at narration :P

Rutger responds:

Thanks! The narration was done by FunyMony, he rocks :D
I love tea for some reason.
