A lot of potiential.
This animation, being very creative and original, could be taken so much further, and even achieve the front page, if you work a little more on the graphics and animation of it. Great sound, creative, deserves my 4.
Reviews for "Alien Sea"

Thanks for the advice, I'll consider making something similar to this, but I think I'll stick with the current animation for this submission. I didn't actually make the song myself though, you can give credit to carcase for that.
Not bad at all...
I enjoyed it, nice music and good animation. As other reviewers have said, it is a little slow and droll, but artistically speaking I enjoyed it. Good luck, and I hope to see future submissions from you. :)
clarke0 responds:
I'll be sure to work hard on any other submissions I produce.
Well.
The effect is somewhat good, but ... in terms of flash animation, it's pretty halfassed. Learn to use movie clips within your main clip, so you could have fish tails swishing, jellyfish moving etc. so it gives it a bit more credibility. I had to score low because this is just a bunch of really halfassed graphics tweened over very long periods, the best thing is the music and you didn't create that so no credit. I was expecting alien sea too, not poorly drawn dolphins, better drawn clownfish, and stingrays that pop out of nowhere. So yes you've got potential I suppose, just put effort into your graphics next time. That's what let you down here.
clarke0 responds:
You must actually animate with Flash... darn. Yeah you have a point, but I meant for this to be a quickie (I made it in an afternoon and a morning.) I was hoping the style, color use, and effects would be enough to leave a better impression, but that seems not to be the case. I do know how to animate, I'll work harder with the moving parts for my next production.
