This is for a class project, it is the first full length Flash animation I have ever done. It was made using Adobe Flash CS3 Professional.

The assignment requirement was to time lyrics to vocals of a song, though obviously I did somewhat more than that. I do not know what mark I will get as it's not due till tomorrow ;D

Still needs some work

While I think the message of the song was fitting, the portion you chose didn't fit. Why should you fall back into the warm water? What does that have to do with a lack of confidence on one's wedding day? If you were interpreting this portion of the song to mean something other than taking a bath, you should animate it as such. Let the singer provide the words; it is your job to provide the visual interpretation. We know how to interpret the song literally, what we want to see is how you think it relates to your animation. If not water, what does a nervous groom fall back into? Love, perhaps? The warm, soothing flood of emotion would be more than enough to drown out any nagging doubts. But how do you illustrate the waters of love? Also, if the water represents the emotion love, then the groom should hardly be fighting his way out of it. Perhaps the water should bring him back itself. Envelope him in bliss, and then lift him to the alter. Who knows; it's your animation. The point I wanted to make was that this song doesn't fit the story if you interpret it literally. If you interpreted it in a way that fits, or if there is some reason in particular that the literal interpretation works, then your animation should make this clear to the viewer. Most people don't take the time to analyze, they'll just write the flash off as poorly done.

this is ok

it was kind of funny

Nice

It was ok. I was expecting it to be longer, but the little bit that that was there was good. You also really should have an icon, not having one tends to drive people away from viewing a movie.
