Okay, this is my first real project, it was made for my film and tv class. I kinda taught myself how to use flash as i was making this movie, so i hope you enjoy. The movie is about the experiences of three friends who's car breaks down and they go to the nearest town for help, the help they find there is... of the undead kind.

Good!

Animation/Graphics: 6/10
The art wasn't very good, to be honest. There was little shading and rough, thick outlines. However, the guy with the eyepatch was drawn better, so it was obvious you learned as the flash progressed. However, there were still too many gradients. Just out of interest, how long did it take?

The animation was interesting. Although you stuck to tweens most of the time, they were effective and expressed movement well.

Storyline/Concept: 5/10
Well, the plot is pretty typical and dull, but it still worked. Considering you didn;t use dialogue, you carried it off very well.

Audio 8/10
The music worked really well, syncing nicely with the animation, and the few sound effects were good.

Overall: 7/10
A great start, but there's still a lot of work to do..I'll be looking forward to the next one. :)

Great start

Hey, man!
If that was your first real project, I'm pretty impressed.
The things I would say could be improved are typical of all flash artist's early work, that is to say large outlines from the brush tool, and limited use of sound.
It was really well put together. Perhaps a slightly different ending would have appealed to me more, but maybe I'm strange like that!
I look forward to seeing your later stuff.

Was ok

At first I thought it wasnt all that because the drawings had thick lines and there wasnt much of it, just alot of motion tweening, but then it got into it and it was actually pretty good! The drawings got better and there was more of it, I liked the music, it went with it, and the story was pretty good, I liked how no one lived lol :P how classic, and the car drawings where pretty decent!

Considering it was your first flash..

It was actually really good! Will there be a second?

Xaeon03 responds:

Yes there will actually be a second, and it will be following the events of the guy with the eye patch (havent figured out what to call him). it will be set after these events and you'll find out how that's possible when i put it up. I can't start on it for a while because of other stuff i have to do, but i will get around to it.
