Dark Story: Man named Jho

Author Comments

This is my first Flash, so I don't mind if someone says this isn't good. I still have time to gain experience. NOTICE that there isn't any "play" or "replay" buttons. Movie starts right away and when it ends, movie starts from the beginning again. Reason for this is that I wasn't able to add buttons.

I hope you somewhat enjoy it.

sad..

Try to have beter graphic please, I could not read half of what was written

this is pretty crank for your first try

ok, some advice... get a flash maker like flash mx or alligator flash, because your subtitles were very hard to read due to the video conversion. overall, i liked the storyline. decent.

more animating

like the story and music was good but more animating next time.. and clearer subtitles but good storyline

Idea Loses Over Graphics

This movie has a very good idea, and it is quite sad. However, something is very wrong with this story. Two things actually. One is the graphics. I'm not sure if .JPG's can be animated but it looks like this one did, since it is poor in graphics. The text is hardly readable, and the graphics of "Jho" are poorly drawn, if this was made in Paint then I take it all back, and apologize for the criticism. However, what type of animator did you use? Some animators (such as mine "Jasc Animation Shop 3") refuse to let you publish in .GIF without... oh what's the word? Ah, yes. ...optimizing the .GIF, which means even if you crank it up to keeping the .GIF as close as it can to being the original image, the optimizing makes the image look like crap, and then the file size is actually RAISED. (If you crank it up to the lowest setting, then you basically have bull where you can't make out anything). The second thing is that the movie is too short. There's a man named Jho. He stands. He walks. He thinks. He dies. You were right though, it is not a love story, or a story of a hero. It is a story of a man who walks, ponders about life, then commits suicide. There is no other character involved, and again, it is too short. Try to make something more happen, like he suicides at the end after going on some kind of adventure. However, I didn't rate this a 1 or a 0 (or in this review, a 2,1,or no stars.) because of the idea. A man who has no meaning in life....

Okay, here's the truth: this movie wasn't made with Flash program. I just transformed one of my movie projects into Flash so that's why it might look bad. Reason to all of this is that I don't have any Flash animations programs. But still thanks for the review.

Hm well..

I know it may have been your first flash but that really wasnt that good at all, I mean the story was going somewhere, but the end was a bit dissapointing. But if only you had the actual animation to go with it.The little pictures weren't thaaat bad but weren't that great either. But again Im sure this would be a great flash if you had the actual animation to go with it instead of paint
