something different...
This was good for a few reasons, first of all, it was original and humorous with the fish. Also, because of the quality of the backgrounds. I think it would of been a little better, if there was a little more actual animation in there and it was longer, But very good one the less :]
Reminds me of the Iron Giant
Reminds me of the Iron Giant, because of the calm guy when it floods. 6/10 because it was short and it was "traced"
LOL
GOOD
Well I thought it was a game but nice video.
EH...
Overall: 3/5 : 5/10
Audio: 5/10
Animation: 5/10
Plot: 6/10
The Audio was rather basic and for the most part, not enjoyable. The Store's BGM (or Elevator music as I call it) was fine but bland, but the watery sound effects was far too loud and over all too compressed.
All other sounds didnt seem to fit well with the rest of the sounds either..
Theres two halves of this Animation that I would like to talk about here.
On one half, the Animation itself was scratchy at best, let alone there wasnt really much animating going on throughout the entire duration of the flash except for the water running which, although is hard to draw let alone animate, it really let down the overall quality of the flash. The humans movements were staggered and unrealistic.
On the other half, the Quality and depth was really good, and really the only reason why the Animation score got anything over 2/10.
It seemed quite evident that you took actual photos of the store and the location and just drew over them to achieve that good quality and depth.
And finally, Plot, Its a clever story line, but it seemed that you were trying too hard to make funny moments, like the employee in the break room, or the fish at the deli. Both of which were funny though, but I couldn't help but tell that it could've been done better...
Overall, I'm not sure how this even got on the front page of NGs, but it seems that as of late, Less than Par front page animations seem to be getting it sadly.
Keep working at your animating skills, you have potential to become quite impressive.
Very helpful advice, thank you. I need to practice animating flowing water.
Most of the flash was rushed right before the day it was due, thanks to my crappy planning. I should have taken more time to work on the fine details.
no...
i hate this art style..... its no smooth, like egoraptor
