Hey, thanks.
Very Unexpected
Yep... as an idea, a totally not Newgrounds material.
Animation was very good, music also very good. Voice acting could be a bit better but it's decent enough.
What was really unexpected is the subject. Great to see people who have the courage to assume and express a such strong opinion.
nahtanojmal responds:
:D Thanks man
Very nice all-round
Very good animation, its a very nice whole to be honest, and considering the length that is an achievement on itself.
Love the way you bring the message, and the message is clear and clean.
Even if you completely don't agree to the message brought, you have to admit it's a completely gorgeous flash. I think the music fits perfectly, and the sound is very well mixed indeed, even the voice acting is very nicely synced with the music etc. Very good. LIke the melodramatic and slightly semi-depressive atmosphere...
Now the supporting music I'd say is very well chosen, even though it's not completely my style. As is with the animation style. I must say it is stunning to see you have taken a style that doesn't normally have too much potential, and got more out of it than even I thought was possible.
I also like how it kind of ends in an open end, the choice remains yours and I think it's very important that we bring the message as such. I mean let's be honest, forced religion is never true religion.
As a last little thing I'd like to add that I very much like the slight variation of style used in this flash, it really shows the contrast between the crucifiction and his own life, and the abstractness of his own thoughts.
nahtanojmal responds:
why thankyou =)
was head bangin the to the song
then it started talking about god ...
im atheist not I really don't care on what religion you are do what makes you happy in life that's all higher power or not
this is a great song and i love the animations hoping to see more from you
- see yea
nahtanojmal responds:
It is a great song ;D
thanks for reviewing
Im going to keep the message out of this...mostly
Without considering the pretty obvious push to believe in God (I do believe in God, but I think that talking about burning in hell is not a way to convert people or a positive message in general, which shouldnt all messages of God be positive? Look to Jesus and you should know that he only wants peace and would never threaten hell upon someone, only offer eternal salvation)
Anyways, the animation is great! You need to brush up on your anatomy, though, as many of the angles seemed very flat and that takes away quite a bit from the overal experience you are trying to go for. The voicing is good, but the very beginning he kind of sounds like he has a lisp. Next time dont be afraid to re-record bits to fix issues like that.
You have some great music going, and you kept a very consistent mood about everything. The radical mood-change at the end, which I think was very well executed, helped cast a more compassionate side to the character and definitely created a multi-faceted personality to the speaker.
10/10 ONLY for the animation itself, I dont judge based on message. (And neither should anyone else! Opinions are opinions and its not like we dont see controversial things on Newgrounds!)
nahtanojmal responds:
Hell is the truth and shouldn't be avoided but yeah the message of God is positive. The darker the night the brighter the stars shine.
Thanks, I will ;)
Music wasn't mine, all credits go to KillTheTrucker for that
And Thank you for reviewing :D
