Syrupmasterz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pokémon: We want You]

What TheMewx said below me, all art styles and skill levels are welcomed. Just make sure to check the video description for any important information before starting your project.

Any questions feel free to ask us. :)

[I Am The Sand Guardian]

Not bad, I can see improvement in your line work and colouring.
I would just suggest making Maxie's wrist a tiny bit bigger, as it looks a little bit small when compared to the rest of his body.
As well when using motion tweens, there is a way to have them come to a smooth stop as opposed to halting immediately.
Near the tween menu, looking for the menu with 'ease'.
-Having it ease in means that it will move slow at first, then accelerate quickly.
-Having it ease out means that the tween will start fast, then slow down before the tween ends.

Hope this advice will prove useful. :)
Good work man!

[Hulk Preorders Smash]

Storyboarding and voice acting was very well done and would make for an awesome video if it was fully finished. Still cool to see in animatic form, but would be AWESOME to see a fully coloured and animated version.

Good work team. :P

[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 :)

[Markipliers Five Nights]

Not bad!
I would suggest when you have characters covering their mouth that you add some additional eye movements to add extra animation to the video.
Keep it up!

[Food Fight]

I got a few chuckles out of this, not bad. :P
When you're using motion tweens for walking, I would suggest having characters move a bit up and down for every step as opposed to having them make a straight path to their destination. Combine this with some small arm and leg movements and the animation quality will be considerably better. As well for fight scenes, try adding a few more punch sound effects so it doesn't get too repetitive as the fight goes on.
Keep it up. :D

[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!

[Gta V Is Boring]

Holy crap! That parachute scene!
Did you have any kind of assistance with that (video reference, rotoscoping), or was that 2000% skill?
Nothing but respect from me. :P

[Let's Build a Danacing...]

Not bad, it put a smile on my face when the Robot started grooving. :P

[Pokemon Type Advantages]

Onyx looks pretty happy for being defeated. :P
Not bad, if you added a little bit of extra animation for the Squirtle (like having him lurch a bit forwards or take a couple of steps), it would make it so the Onyx would actually crush him when he collapses. As it stands the Squirtle just disappears into a puddle of blood.
A few tweaks and this animation will be golden. Good work!

SalehtheAnimator responds:

Does it really look that much like Onyx was defeated? He just fell over. Well, guess I can only blame myself.
