Galneda's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[unfinished : untitled (soon to be finished, soon to be named)]

Better than my first flash, that's for sure. The name of this submission reflexively made me ready to blam this thing to smithereens, but there's a lot of demonstrated skill in this thing. I can't wait to see how you shape up with more practice.

studioSTRICKEN responds:

Thank you very much. I'm new to all this and these are the first nice words I have received on this website, with the exception of my dad and aunt. I hope to create short animations with some sort of narratives in them, but here I decided to create an animation with flashy cuts and crap. this is no way near the end product, I'm hoping to make it at least a minute, it really is taking time though. Never the less, don't let it be said that I am not a man of my word, I'm on that animation, especially with that boost of confidence you have given me.

[Travelling Deity - Full episode]

You are a continued inspiration and Tales of Alethrion is an incredible masterpiece of a series. I wish you and your team all of the best of luck and fortunes to make the best possible art, and may it skyrocket you into making even more incredible productions for years to come. Y'all are the real deal, and I love you with all my heart. These are amazing, and thank you for sharing it with us.

Export setting / aspect ration mishap hurt this thing's score for me, but so did the audio balancing quality.

Generally characters are talking very low volumed, so it makes me turn up my speakers, and then they shout to even higher threshold's, which makes me turn it down, and then they're speaking low again- that's extremely annoying on its own, so, ignoring that this thing's been squished till it's a vertical tower of a cartoon, and even putting the sound issues aside, this could have been a sufficient standalone Spongebob Gag. But whoever edited the audio or exported the animation needs to learn from this.

Proof-watch your uploads in the future, listen for the balancing by turning down things that are too loud and turning up things that are too quiet, and you'll be golden.

Hello! Sorry about the aspect ratio, tried uploading the same file from my iPhone but clearly it messed with the aspect ratio and even some audio. Thanks for letting me know and giving some helpful criticism!

[rayman vs bunny]

The audio balancing is extremely harsh. I think if anything hurt its score, it's because of how unnecessarily loud the Rabbid scream is. You need to balance your audio so it isn't too quiet and it isn't too loud...a nice, comfortable, and consistent volume would really help out your future productions.

That said, I love the hell out of the time and patience that went through doing this as a stop-motion. That's no small feat at all! Watch that audio in the future, but keep growing as an animator- you demonstrated a lot of skill in this one!

There's a lot of influence of Pencilmation's style here, and it's charming and cute.

There's a couple of harsh cuts that's a little disorienting when it cuts back and forth between the main character's box and the bunch of boxes off to the right. It could benefit from having a whip pan or a tween when it's going back and forth instead of a cut. Especially since there's no environmental background to clarify where in the world we are when it cuts.

[Kirby Reanimated Collab]

THAT WAS AMAZING! Super charming and endearing, the theme was absolutely on point, everyone did a phenomenal job! Praise praise praise, great work to everyone involved in this!

[STARBARIANS - Episode 3]

You're an absolute master at your craft, and this looks better than syndicated productions by a galactic longshot. I loved every moment and detail, and the acting in their animation was stunning! Someone needs to just drop a fuckton of money on you so you can establish a studio and knock out a movie of these dudes, and I would love to be involved in the pre-production or a voice or something should that happen. You absolute rock star, shine brightly and eternal.

[Mystery Box Surprise!]

If I didn't already know you as a phenomenal animator and creative rock star, if this were my first impression, I would have subscribed harder than your dick in my mom. I love your style, dude!

When the fuck are you going to make a movie?

Like, a MOVIE movie? With catering and trailers and a length of credits longer than the sex you would have with my mom?

[YESSS]

It's a helluva start. The fact that it's 6-8 frames long may hurt it's score, but it's a healthy start. It goes by so quickly there's not much else to comment on this. Hair coloring outside of the lines can convey motion, but keep an eye out making sure that it CONVEYS motion. There should be some stillness before and after the motion of her going "YES" so it isn't so jarring when it loops. Lets see you knock out something more complex outta the park- keep up the great work!

[FLEX CALIBUR]

WHERE THE HELL DID THIS COME FROM!?

It's so fucking good! It's smooth and crisp and clean, professional studio quality work from everyone involved, this needs to be greenlit for a couple of seasons and a movie PRONTO. What an unexpected surprise to see on Newgrounds, I was absolutely blown away by the animation quality and getting the guy from Armored Saint to sing for him.

I loved every second of it. Fantastic job, and I hope that we're blessed with a continuation.
