Reviews for Beauty

[TheBloodseeker]

woa. one sec

I haven't logged into newgrounds in over a year.

I decided to log in to review your video, not to "insult" or "troll" or hurt your feelings, but because i have a serious opinion on "art" and what we as humans define "beauty".

Beauty is a simple sensation that could potentially bring a tear to your eye. It can be anything from a sunset to music, or from an elephant learning math to the dirty drop of a dubstep production.

But this video, was not beauty. It wasn't even close. A couple sketches rendered into a video with unfitting piano music is hardly beautiful. Its actually distasteful. If you truly, and i absolutely mean you will die to defend this, believe that video brought more joy to your life than a baby reaching out and touching a tree for its first time with a fascinated look upon its face, then you sir are a sad person and i resent all things you live for.

And also screw all the other reviewers rating 10/10 for something they think is beautiful, when they wouldn't know beauty if it came and slapped them in the face with a disemboweled testicle covered crowbar.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

It's okay to write an opinion that doesn't match mine, but please: be more constructive, instead of being rude. Of course, beauty can be everything: a sunset, a butterfly, ... Yes, even a sandwich.

"...than a baby reaching out and touching a tree for its first time with a fascinated look upon its face", is the same as seeing a child with a goose: it's beauty. But if you want to photograph, paint, draw or tape it, then you create something out of it. My video is about how people SHOW certain beauty, what they make of it.

Beautiful.

One word says it all.
Keep up the good work.

Definitely spectacular!

This is easily one of the most original and creative cartoons that I have seen this year. Allow me to explain...

Graphics: I see that you were influenced by Disney, and there's nothing wrong with that provided that you have the skill to back it up. Seeing that you did a great job on the art and animation, you get my seal of approval. Of course, I think you could study other types of drawing styles when possible. However, I noticed in one scene that the goose wasn't properly filled in. When doing a dry-erase style, make sure to turn the grid on.
Music: Nice decision on the non use of sound effects, and Franz' music fit perfectly.
Content: This is one of the best directed and written submissions for this week so far. Plus, it's also original, which is a plus. (Note: I don't have anything against parody/skit cartoons, but some variety would be nice.) I really like how the painter finds himself competing with two types of cameramen and a writer. This is the kind of unique that flourishes in internet animation.

What I liked:
-Original
-Great animation
-Nice music selection
-Praiseworthy direction and story.

What I didn't like:
-The goose wasn't filled in during the feeding scene.
-The filesize is a bit big for something like this.

Overall: Here's your ten, Pepijn.

no matter how many ways you use it, rather your drawing, video making, painting, they each are incredible ways to create art.
the animation was very clear, well drawn and it played smoothly, and i enjoyed the music you used
