If you have a selection title, you should always allow the viewer to go back and choose another scene instead of playing them all. I felt as if these were dragging on and I was struggling to continue watching. At the end, you only acknowledged Humpty Dumpty and the ducks. I know you did Peter (or Paul) and the spider but they were under a shadow. I was very bored of it and I really wanted to like it.
Reviews for "Nursery Rhymes of Death"
I thought that the idea was really good, and the music itself was fairly good as well. I can't say too much about the animation, as I know next to nothing about it, but it was fine. I think, however, you could have picked the songs more carefully. Humpty Dumpty I can understand, and 5 little ducks up to a point, but for the second and third songs... what you had animated wasn't even implied in the songs. You could have picked ones that actually have the implied violence/gore/whatever. Ring around the Rosie, for example is apparently about the Black Plague. You could have had multitudes of people dying there if you wanted. Rock-a-bye baby falls out of a tree, Little Baby Bunting gets wrapped in a rabbit skin, that kind of thing.
Again, great idea, but you could have picked better nursery rhymes for your animation.
I thought for sure that Ring around the Rosie would be included in here as it was about the Black Death
This is... not that great... I must admit, I was hoping for morbidity from the actual poems... the humpty dumpty poem is quite morbid and good here, and all the Mother Goose poems were made during the Mid-evil Times. The Ring Around The Rosie song was about the bubonic plague, posies were common flowers carried during the plague, and the ashes part and falling down was all about the burning of corpses to prevent the plague. Yet, some of these poems were random morbid shit. Please, try and not do random morbid shit without reason, as there is no humor in any of it, as such, several animations, only 1 really good one. Better just publish your best and take suggestions from your viewers, and maybe other animators and comedians.
What the bloody hell did I just watch?
