ShaeGuy's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nameless Series - Brain Dead]

The one nitpick I have is that the voice acting isn't really consistent. At times we go from very soft talking to blowing out your ears. If you don't have it, I recommend Audacity. It can help amplify the quiet lines you got. Aside from this, this was pretty enjoyable. I do love me some Eddsworld-inspired submissions, and this gave me just what I wanted. Hope to see another episode of this! :)

cacko responds:

i do have audacity, but not only did i switch headphones halfway through, going between flash and audacity can be a chore, but thanks for watching nonetheless!

[The shapeshifter's hideout [clip/test] - The Crazed Side]

Pretty impressive! I imagine it's not easy trying to do 3D animations in general, but I love how creative it looks. It feels like on of those old 90s 3D cartoons. Keep up the good work!

TheCrazedSide responds:

thanks, i will!

[Duelist Demo - Leeway - Introduction]

Honestly one of the best stick animations I've seen in a while. I really had no problems with anything in this. I wanna ask though, do you play Moonlighter? Because the plot here reminded me of that game exactly. Really fun game btw. Also, you get extra points for Undertale music. lol

ZaiDrizzleDrop responds:

Thanks a TON man! I really appreciate that. I have never played Moonlighter before but I'll check it out! Looool, Undertale has some great music!

[Borb Rors]

Thought I drop by to leave a rating. :)

FlippinDollar responds:

oh thank you so much

[STARWARS: Return of the Jedi Loop de Loop]

While the animation is pretty fluid and the artwork is pretty good in my opinion, this has some nitpicks with it. Any piece of audio would be nice to have instead of leaving it just silent. It would help engage your viewers more. Also something like this may be better off on your dumping grounds instead of submitting it under judgement. Under judgement is more for legit, really well-made projects instead of just loops. The overall submission is decent for what it is. You just need to be more careful on what you submit. Just throwing out some tips here. Good luck!

Shoodawatta responds:

Thanks for the feedback ShaeGuy! Yes your definetly right about the audio (or lack of it!). I actually started gathering some sounds for this but realised i wouldn't have had enough to make the deadline. Saying that there's no reason i couldn't have added it after for this upload. Good point. Thanks for the heads up, I'm not on this site a hell of alot (the amount of content i have reflects that!) So I tend to default to submitting it regularly. I will try to be more specific in which section of the site to upload to in future.

Thanks again!

[2017 Animation Reel]

From the looks of it, you have plenty of talent and potential. Love your animations, artwork, line work, color scheme, etc. Hope you get hired Evan. :)

Sketchead responds:

Cheers, ShaeGuy!

[Stick and Bun]

I'll give it credit that the animation is pretty smooth and fluid. Not to mention the art here is really good in my opinion. It just looks very cute lol. But yeah, the problem here is that there is no audio to it. I understand your reasoning for not having sound, but it's no excuse either. Having no audio in a movie submission can really hurt your overall score. Just saying. Not to mention the animation is on a loop. I recommend getting Swivel so the animation can be in a video player. It's a free newgrounds program, so it should be no problem to get. While I do like some aspects to this submission, there are others that I do not like. Just remember to improve the next time you submit something under judgement. Good luck!

TadadPanpada responds:

ShaeGuy, your review is really helpful for a newbie like me! Truly appreciate it! Definitely gonna improve in my next submits :)). I still try to figure out why my animation is in loop like that though :(

[League Animation: Epsiode #1 - League of Draven]

The biggest problem with this is the pacing. It is way too slow-paced. If this is suppose to be about action, it needs to be a lot faster. Something this slow and non-engaging can really hurt your overall score on newgrounds. However, the animation itself is pretty smooth for the most part. And the art and line work is pretty good in my opinion. I just really do adore basic art most of the time lol. Like I said, you need to speed up the pacing because it is really slow here. I hope you take my advice, and try to improve. Good luck!

LeagueAnimation responds:

Thanks for your feedback!
Acctually this was my first animation, and i agree with you, the pace in this is too slow, took me some time to realize that. So, i did the second episode, with a faster pace, you can check if you want it. I want all the advices that i can get!

[Mike's Hangout]

That was pretty enjoyable! I do admire all the hard work you put into this, and I hope you get a good grade too. The animation itself reminds me a bit of the Ed Edd 'n Eddy style, which I really do love! The art and linework looks pretty good in my opinion. I really do adore the sketchy looking lines! Makes everything look like it was drawn from a notebook lol. And the overall story is pretty hilarious. Especially with that used condom xD. But yeah, keep up the good work because you have talent and potential! :)

DioShiba responds:

Thanks! Not gonna lie Danny Antonucci is one of the influences for the style I was aiming for on this one. It got a pretty good response from the showing I had last night at my college so I am hopeful it'll get a decent grade.
