This is a cartoon I produced for my wonderful girlfriend Rachel as a parting gift before we move apart. The voices are our voices 2x fast. It was recorded several months ago when we were messing around with my computer mic. I animated the flash according to how our voices sounded sped up (then I added sound effects). She doesn't even know that I used the recording, made the flash, or put this on the internet ;-). I have made her flashes before, but this time, instead of showing it on my 98 Windows computer, I will show it to her on the internet. ^_^ I hope you enjoy this cute flash animation. Voices by Rachel and me(Landon). Please review and vote. Thank you!

Potential talent:

As an animator, I must put the "needless to say" disclaimer of having a bias towards my own particular likings of animation, but I will do my best to be fair in every way...

Graphics- I see this is your first submission, and considering that while none of it was too impressive, everything was impressive and no mistakes were made. The lip sync was enjoyable as well.
Style- I accually find it a bit charming that you have the romatic heart to publicise a gift for your girlfriend. While the general audience may not understand most of the humor, I'm sure that it's a truckload of giggles for the two of you.
Sound- I would strongly recomend that if you choose to continue the "alvin and the chipmunks" style, simply record your voices at a regular pace, and tweak it with the hopes the audience will pick it up. I can see what you were trying to do, but I dont think that all the technical parts translated very well.
Violence- The violence in this thing is about as maniacle as a box full of kittens.
Interactivity- You have a play and a repeat button. I dont think you are looking for alot of commentary on interactivity.
Humor- With all the cute little elements in the background and all the little changes in the animation, mixed with the fact that this is specifically for a girl, I really did get a laugh...

Comments: You are a talented animator. Dont expect something so short and so audience specific to make it to the front page, but dont be discouraged. With some plot enriched flashes, you would easily do well to become a popular artist on Newgrounds.

[insert random line here]

hahaha the chick can get pretty creepy i see.

LOL, no... A little silly at times, but creepy? ... Creepy? ... o_o
Just kidding ^_^ I made things happen to correspond with how the conversation sounded. (When we recorded this last year, we spoke slow to see how it would sound sped up.) During the recording, she laughed because her voice sounded "spooky" when she spoke... We had a laugh messing with the audio afterwards too. :)

Don't want to write a summary.

I'm sure it was a lovely parting gift and the fact that you made (instead of bought) it must've made it even better. However, I just don't think it's the kind of thing that's going to go over on NewGrounds too well. I like the style, but the sound was a little shaky.

Blam!

God.....that was annoying!

ERM...

There was some good animation in there, but the voices were plain annoying. Also, the storyline made no sense at all.
