ShaeGuy's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[7 Fragments]

I will admit some of these pieces of animation were pretty legit and everything, but something like this would be better off in the dumping grounds rather than being submitted under judgement. Anything under judgement will have to be a legit animation project instead of experimental animation tests. Those type of videos would likely get a low score if not blamed. Although I'm sure this submission will be saved and everything, but still. Also a nitpick, but any kind of audio would be nice. Music, sound effects, etc would really help make your video more engaging. Without audio, your submission will may come off as boring to a lot of people. It's ok for what it is, but just remember to put content like this in the dumping grounds next time. I'm just saying.

[Downfall]

Well I do appreciate the moral here I'll give you that, but that's really about it. The animation is pretty average at best, but I assume that is not the main focus here. It's the moral that is the focus. Again, I really do appreciate it. :)

thekmanproductions responds:

Thank you! I am learning animation, I do not have a drawing tablet yet, so its a bit choppy. I figured Newgrounds was about community and creation, so I wanted to share my journey of learning flash and at the same time; wanted to share a message. :)

[Animoid (Promo)]

This was pretty great! The artwork is legit in my opinion, the line work is pretty good, and the color scheme was alright. However, this may be nitpicking but the animation tends to be hit or miss. While some parts of the animation looks really amazing, other times it looks a bit off. I could be wrong, but it seems you were trying to do tweening and frame-by-frame at the same time. If that's the case, I recommend you do only one or the other. It just looks pretty trippy in my opinion. But again, everything else holds up. It is a pretty good submission. Keep up the good work!

[Quick Action]

I do have to say, submissions like this would normally be better off at the dumping grounds rather than be submitted under judgement. But even then, this video is pretty amazing on its own! The animation and the artwork is some of the best I've seen so far in a long time! Can't even begin to imagine what your legit projects would be like with this type of effort. Keep up the amazing work! :)

[The DUANE dance]

Granted the overall quality of this submission is not bad or anything. The animation is great, the art is legit in my opinion, and the music is a good choice. But having the same thing loop for over 3 minutes can get pretty boring. Maybe some more dance moves would be really nice to have. It's ok for what it is. It just could've been better.

[happy new year !!!]

Pretty simple, but that's what I love about it. Happy New Year! :)

["Snapchat in Highschool"- Storytelling Animation]

While the animation and artwork here is pretty average at best, that is obviously not the focus. The focus is the storytelling aspect. And for what it is, it's pretty great! You were loud and clear, which is enough to be telling stories like this! I also really appreciate the moral you gave out right in the end. I don't know if we are thinking the same thing, but it goes like:

"Treat others the way you want to be treated!"

That moral I swear is pretty much dead at this point, especially on the internet. Nobody just can't learn to respect one another, especially the "adults". Folks really need to grow up and learn to respect other peoples privacy, opinions, ideas, etc. But I know there are plenty of men-children that will try to say otherwise, but that would only prove how ignorant they are. It's all about being open-minded and listening to the other person's opinions and ideas. You never know what you'll learn if you respect others.

MazinZien responds:

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the feedback. Yeah, as far as the animation, I'm still practicing very hard to get even better and better. I'm glad you think my storytelling is great though. Thanks! :)

[Steven Universe: Fries]

Really amazing for a short video! First of all, you did a pretty good job with making the character designs look like the original from TV. Secondly, the animation is almost like it came from TV too. And finally, seeing all the voice actors doing their roles in that vine warms my heart. It was pretty hilarious! Keep up the amazing work! :)

[How did LIFE begin on earth?]

An amazing, informative video! Love everything about it! The video quality itself is enough to give you 5/5. The animation, art, and the voice actor were all spot on. Plus, the information here was very well interesting. I do love theories like this! Don't know what else to say except keep up the amazing work! :)

Curiosity180 responds:

Thank you! Let us know what types of information you would like to see turned into an animation.

[Goblin King]

Really damn great! The fluid claymation and the creative morphing from a man to goblin was just spot on! Hope the film festival goes amazing for you! :)
