Dull
The animation might be ok, but the music gives a punch in the chin to the entire work. It is also very confusing. Anyway, hang in there and keep moving.
Reviews for "Shadeborn's CastleVania"
Pretty good.
All points of view may be different, however, I didn't quite understand yours...
Something about Castlevania and S&M? Well, whatever, I've never minded eye candy.
COOL
pretty good animation, diden't really get the plot but none the less it was good
Twisted, Dark, but... wow
I felt something watching this movie.
I could feel your passion, your deep emotions and thoughts. I could feel how well thought out this peice was.
I defiently understand how this can be interpreted very differently by every single person.
Your animation is smooth but choppy. I mean this in a good way... its like you planned everything perfectly. Anytime something was a little choppy, it felt right. It went with the mood.
Your sound was good, although that one part where it just stopped was a little sudden. I understand you are trying to grab the viewers attention specifically at that point, however, i feel you could have done that in a more 'ear friendly' fashion. Like fading it out and then suddenly turning it back on. The fading out would grab our attention, while the sudden bringing back of the music (not fading in) would re-set the aura and mood of the rest of the movie.
Your style is very unique... the black and white along with the 'bad reception' was amazing and went well togethor.
I will say the music you chose was flawless for this movie. Very good choice i must say. Once again, how well you thought it out seeps through.
Everything was original and well done.
The deep, dark, twisted aura and the noir look was just a perfect combination for this peice that will make any viewer think.
It could have been longer, but then again, that might have given away to much information. If you do that you would have lost the fact that i understand this flash differently then you do. Because you withheld so much information, it leaves it open for interpretation and makes a strong connection with each of its viewers.
Not much i can say to put this peice down, mostly praise.
I loved it, but i can also see you have room for improvement. I cannot wait to see what you come up with next.

...And how is this like Castlevania at all?
Really the only thing that was pretty Castlevania about it was the fact that it happened in a castle.
Aside from the title, it was choppy and it didn't make much sense. The only thing you heard through the entire thing was music, and to be honest, it really wasn't all that great to listen to. Not even a crack of the wip or a caw from the crow, just the same old drum loop with the occasional xylaphone sound and maybe a little bit of switch up's here and there, but that's it.
All in all, I'm not bashing it or anything, but the flash just seemed a wee-bit mediocre to me. Just work on smoothing things out, SFX, better music, and actually developing an interesting plot. That's all from me, I'm voting a three.
