Turkey Day Follies

It's Thanksgiving and the turkey tries to outdo the Chef, can the two come to a mutual agreement?


-------------------------


Hey everyone, this is my (late) Thanksgiving submission. I worked on this for about a week but didn't get around until now because I was on holiday in Spain. Needless to say I received an A+ on this for my web-media class. Anyways, enjoy.

It was alright, nothing amazing.

~ Animation/Graphics ~

The graphics were pretty good. I liked the style and I don't think there is much to improve here in this submission. It kind of has a style that a younger audience would enjoy.

~ Story/Content ~

The chef and a turkey... it was kind of like Tom and Jerry. I'm going back with the whole younger viewer thing because I think the humor was better fit for a child. Not saying that it wasn't amusing, but it really didn't get anything more than a smile from me. I can see that it was for a class so you probably can't get any more "adult" like humor in there anyway.

~ Audio ~

The sound effects were pretty fitting. I'm pretty sure I've heard several of those before. Were any of them original by you? If so I'm probably just thinking of some similar cartoon like sounds that I've heard before.

~ Overall ~

A cute little flash. I think it's better fitting for a younger audience, but it's still an enjoyable short. Keep up the good work and good luck in your web-media class.

Nice one!

I liked this flash dude, it was a pretty funny cartoon, it's not violent, neither dirty, it's a simply, yet funny little animation. I liekd the concept, a thanksgiving flash, the sounds were pretty cool and the graphics were fine too.

I liked the creativity you had here, a chef going to kill a turkey to cook it for Thanksgiving Day, then, the turkey gets desperated and they start to show each other their even better defence infrument. It was a pretty funny cartoon, and a great concept.

I think that a crucial thing was missing, a little background song, I think a piano song would fit in, it'd give the flash something else.

I liked it, anyway, it was a pretty cool and funny flash... Keep it up dude! I expect to see more things from you!! :)

Very funny.

Sound effects really went a long way in this Flash. It's refreshing to see a meaningful (if short and playful) cartoon conveyed without much speech other than "Oh no!"

The art looked really spectacular. The bright colors were very clean, and they helped establish that playful mood. Put this in black and white with sharper lines, and it becomes a drama. Funny how things work like that.

Throughout the movie, I enjoyed the buildup. The climax was hilarious in my opinion, though I won't ruin it for others. There's not much I can say to add to this other than some music, but it really works even without it.

Good chuckle

Rather short but still funny to be honest. The background was nicely animated at the start and the background at the end was more simplistic though. So I am going to assume they were eating inside the cook's house I take it. That and who knew that the turkey would be able to hold such heavy weapons. Why were they trying to one up each other anyways? Oh well.

I guess they agree on one thing in the end. If you can't get rid of each other then just eat burgers from a freshly killed cow right? The cow comes back and still doesn't appear to be happy. This is a funny little piece.

Overall, this is a good Thanksgiving piece although it is a bit late for Thanksgiving. Very nice job anyways.

lolol

Well, I found it to be slightly amusing. It was a good idea for a flash short and I think you executed it well, in my opinion.

The drawings were good, and the animation wasn't top notch, but it definitely got the job done. I think you could have done a bit better on the facial expressions and syncing to the laughing, but it wasn't bad. Most of the animation had a good style to it and looked good.

The leaves at the beginning were a nice touch and the background looked good. The humorous touch with the cow's ghost at the end holding the sign was quite funny - that and the fact that the guy and the chicken were eating burgers, lol.

Not a bad little thanksgiving animation, just submitted a tad bit late ;) Keep up the great work though.
