Syrupmasterz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bad Dream :(]

Chutney is weak against Grass attacks.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

true yes!

[Happy Birthday! (Chutney Glaze)]

The Chutney Crew has bad luck when it comes to meeting each others parents, one can only imagine how the Red Skeleton Family meetup is gonna go. :P

Super fluid stuff man, this has to be some of your smoothest work yet! I can see why though, it's all one shot with a whole lot of interaction with the background.

Also...(inhale)

YOU MADE A SPYRO 3 YETI BOXING REFERENCE WITH MAH'NAH?!
I was actually going to make that joke in an episode one day! You have no idea how much you made me smile and laugh just now. :D

As well I'm sure all of the credit crew are happy with what they keep getting.

Great work dude!

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Oh my god you remeber that to? that is too cool! those yetis fighting was exactly what i was going for thank you1

[Trees]

You clever dog you, I just realized that you foreshadowed the shotgun at the beginning, AND that you actually were using an acoustic cover of the chutney theme during the first part. :P

Well played.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Clever?...maybe. Dog?... Definitely! Good eye, I've been waiting forever for someone to point these out!

[Trish (Chutney Glaze)]

If Chutney can shrug off The Skull Lord and one of his best friends getting turned into a demonic abomination, then I think he'll cope with a mostly burnt planet no problem.

Heck, he'll probably have half of it all cleaned up and replanted by the time the next episode rolls out. :P

Nice work dude! Cool camera angles and some delightful character acting.
You keep finding new fun ways to up the ante as the series goes on.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Hmm you are sparking my mind with all kinds possibilities. Thank you!

[I Love Cats]

Nice experiment with the boiling line style you got going on here!
Delightful voice acting that I'm sure helped you figure out how to animate it and choose the camera angles.

Keep it up mate! :D

funymony responds:

I did all the voices on the first pass and it sucked.

I felt like it was a dead script until I got the audio from Ed Atlin and Lollergator.
They really gave the cartoon a fresh take.

[Cry and Chey: Don't Starve - Part 1 of 3]

Pretty good so far!

I'm impressed with the amount of different drawings this animation has. While not every scene has lip sync while Cry and Chey talk, it is well done when it is used.

I'm not sure how far along you are with the other parts but having roughly the same level of drawing quality (if not better) with some additional scenes with lip sync would make for an enjoyable mini-series. :)

Keep it up!

Rixian responds:

Alrighty!! >u</ will try

[A Resident Evil 4 Thing]

Pretty good for your first official animation. :P
I have a few suggestions that might help you in your future endeavours, should you be interested.

-It seemed like your animation ended a little too abruptly. That may have been the point since you plan on making a second one, but if you ended it after Leon fought off the Ganado you could pick it right back up in the next part. You could also have a screen that mentions that there will be a second part within the movie, but that is just a suggestion.

-Your lip sync skills at the beginning seemed pretty good, adding these to the communication scenes would help add to the animation quality.

-Your voice acting seems alright, but sometimes you speak a little bit quieter than some of the other lines. Speaking at a consistent volume will make your voice acting clear and easy to understand. This will be especially useful in the communication scenes as the static effect garbles things a little bit.

-While the super fast swishes when people walked out of the car were meant to keep up the fast pace of the video, spending a bit of extra time on the animation will definitely add to the quality of the project.

Keep up the good work!

KharonR responds:

Thanks for the advice. Everything you said is valid, and i understand what needs to be fixed.
I did rush it, only because I guess I was to excited to make it and upload this. And yea, It would be good to put a "until next time" or something to verify there would be second part to avoid confusion towards the end. I'm not sure if there would be a third one though. So doing that wouldn't be necessary for the second. But ill keep it in mind.
And yea people complain about the voice acting which I totally get, its not that great. But it was my first time, and I don't mean to make excuses but I did just have mouth surgery at the time. So that would have probably been the leading cause of the not so great voice acting.
But ill be sure that all my future animations will be made with much more care and time than this one. I'll be sure to fix the problems I have the best I can, and just progress from where I left off.

Thanks again for the tips! I will try to use them wisely~

[The Discoverer Of Fire.]

Not bad for a short. :P

I would suggest that when he is running around that you add a few footstep sounds to add to the scene.

As well the credit sequence seemed a little bit choppy as it scrolled upwards. Since you were the person for everything you could have all of the text on one screen, like at the start of the short.
Alternatively you could try slowing down the speed at which the credits scroll up, so the transition is smoother.

Keep up the good work!

HMarioProductionsH responds:

Thanks for the comment and advice, I will take into account, thanks :)

[Anaconda DON'T]

I got a couple of chuckles out of this video, not bad. :P
As well your lip-sync skills are pretty good.
I will suggest a couple of things though that could help improve the quality of future videos, or even this one if you ever decide to remake it.

-Most of the video is reliant on the voice acting and animation to get the joke across, which was still effective enough to work. However adding some simple sound effects for things like yanking the snake out the ear and plopping to the ground will make the video less silent.
-If it weren't for the obvious copyright reasons, and it was a song of your own creation, I would suggest having it playing super quietly while it was still stuck in his head.
-The joke was entirely character centric, but adding in a background sometimes adds to the quality of a video. A room inside a house or walking around town etc.
No marks were deducted from the total score for this reason though.

Keep up the good work and you'll surely improve.
Good luck!

AniMate responds:

Thank you for your helpful comment! I'm still new to animation and these kind of suggestions are exactly what I'm looking for :)

[Korra Boredom Dub - Gym S]

I have no idea how much effort went into this, but you sure did make the absurd dialog fit surprisingly well with the shows original lip-syncing.
You even added sound effects for footsteps and miscellaneous stuff, you could've been lazy and just had voices. Way to go the extra mile. :P

TomaMoto responds:

These usually take the better part of a day, which is to say, not nearly the amount of effort that goes into a real animation. Still, it's a fun way to showcase my voice over and "writing"/technical abilities on Newgrounds and I appreciate that the Newgrounds community has tolerated me doing so for years.

Glad you enjoyed!
