GallowJolt's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ugly on the Outside]

Congrats on getting fifth place on the jam dude! Also, such a heartwarming tale... Reminds me of something Trash Toons would make

snailpirate responds:

Thanks man, and I fucking love TrashToons. Their stuff is hilarious.

[Somewhere Other: Good Going]

Love how the light of the fire shows on the characters, excellent eye for detail. Really neat stuff. Only annoying part was the subtitles and the sounds for the talking, but I guess that's more of a personal preference.

cecameron responds:

Thanks so much!! Audio is still something I'm getting used to. I'll keep working on it!

[Episode 4 - The Stevie Saga]

I feel like your humour and storytelling has come a long way from your first stuff, but I do have to mention that I think the show suffers tremendously from the art style. I think in general the art is a bit ugly looking, but if I were to focus on one thing specifically it'd be the hands.

That being said, I could watch the whole thing twice and still find the jokes funny so I think you did a great job with that. Best of luck in the future mate, I don't know many people as driven or as hard-working as you.

RyzoJ89 responds:

Aw Thanks Man That Means Alot!
Yeah i know, i hate doing hands! Lmao!! I need to work on my proportions as well, i'm so amateur is unreal Lmao.
A lot of my inspiration comes from shows like, the simpsons, family guy, & south park, so i think my art is a hybrid of all of that lol

Is it the character designs that you find ugly, or just when they're moving - and not being in proportion? Lol

[003 1 hour challenge]

Cool for an hour animation, doesnt really have any other vaule besides that. :/

I like it tho, the water droplet is pretty mesmerising, I'd love toy see something sprout from this mate

Simrick responds:

Thanks and yes it is kind of boring, I don't plan doing anything with this but I do plan on using what I've learnt from this and make something better in the future :)

[Homer's Deathbed]

Animation is pretty good, kinda weird at parts, main fall down is the writing though. You should definitely have other people look through your scripts before you make 'em into a full animation, because it's really hurting the general flow of everything.

Ant0on responds:

Cool, thanks for the feedback, but I wouldnt be taking someone seriously when what they say doesnt match with what they can actually do https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/710299

[Stranger Souls]

Great stuff, I'll just start with the criticism first to get it outta the way. Firstly, I noticed that the character's expressions could've been a little more emotive, and a lot of the line art of the characters were very rigid, take for example the part where the boy points the gun at the other guy, the barrel of the gun is more of a hexagonal shape than a circular shape.

Overall it's pretty decently animated, sound effects are pretty solid in the whole thing, just in general a really nice smooth animation.

l-ALONE-l responds:

Thank you very much, I will keep it in mind to improve in future animations
Greetings :D

[Theres Sexual Harassment, then theres That! - PANDEMON!UM]

Yeah you're right, sound quality is definitely a lot better in these more recent animations. Yeah man, followed you and all that jazz, hope to see more from you!

RyzoJ89 responds:

Thanks man, Ive stopped rendering the video with the audio in it, i add that in later, using different software, i feel it sounds far cleaner than previous videos. The syncing is off by a milisecond using this software though, need to fix that lol

[DOLLS PLAY - Episode 1.1 - PANDEMON!UM]

Idk why but these cartoons are actually really entertaining! What I would recommend is a better sound quality though, like even if it's just throwing some makeshift set around for insulating the sound, or just buying a better mic. Besides that I think it's a pretty stellar job at an entertaining cartoon. Cheers!

RyzoJ89 responds:

Thanks a lot! Ive been messing around with the audio, because i hate the way it sounds when its exported and encoded. Ive used this technique on my newest 2 videos, let me know if u can hear a difference in the sound quality :D

[Oh No]

Animation and art needs a bit of work I'd say, but apart from that it kept my attention for that one minute and seven seconds, so I gotta give you something for that. It was entertaining, so good job!

I love how you kept reusing the same "oh no" for every scenario. reminds me a bit of the Wilhelm Scream and all those other cases. 3/5

Flashoons responds:

The art style comes from the guy who had made these as a comic (link is in the description). I didn't wanna have too much movement on the characters because I think it was appropriate for what the joke is about. Thanks for the brief review. appericiate ya

[Animation vs Animator (Alan Beker Inspiration)]

I liked the animation. I felt that the animation felt lazy at times, where the stickman jumped off the sword and was getting hit by the whip thing, but overall the idea and the execution was well done. I liked the way he just bursts out of his tombstone. Good work man, keep it up and this will look amazing.

NinjaPuppyCat responds:

I've gotta admit, I did see a few slip-ups in my animation however I do have a lot of favorite scenes! Thanks for the support!
