Reviews for "Forest 2013 - Chapter 1"

Needs more variety

All in all, the movie itself wasn't bad. The animations were smooth, and the concepts were interesting (if a bit over-used). However, it would be nice to see a little more variety in the animation. Watching 5 guys all move the same way gets dull at times. Also, you need to work on a better translation; half of what was said didn't make any sense.

Not bad...

...But not great, either. S'okay, we start somewhere, right?

A few pointers:

Reign in those shoulders! Seriously, the shoulders on the soldiers are jutting too far out from the chest, it looks kinda weird. Some anatomy drawing practice should take care of that problem.

English. I know you stated that it isn't your first language, and there wasn't a problem with the spelling or anything, but your syntax was crazy, man! It made the movie unintentionally funny. Not really a big issue, though, unless you want your western coutnerparts to take it a little more seriously.

Otherwise, just use a more varied soundboard/track next time. Left 4 dead is still too fresh in our memories, feels a bit like a cop out.

Lastly, you say they're in the woods... but I didn't see any trees... or stumps for that matter. Just a heads up.

Good luck on part 2!

Need some improvement

Good animation and good sound quality, but certainly I can not say the same of the drawings and the story is a bit 'obvious. I also see that you like pretty much the game left 4 dead, because in the first part of the video you putted its typical jingle at least 5 times in a row.
Anyway, congratulations for the length of the video.
2/5 - 6/10

hmm

yeh sorry, but no. The music really killed this for me. I could have lived with the horrible translations and crappy introduction, but the music sounded like a cat composed it.

not great

Repeated frames for all the soldiers at the same time looked lazy - when they waited at the walls was especially bad.
The monsters looked kinda dumb. Can't say they seemed threatening.
