[Captain Useless Ep.1]

Heeey! What happened? It went so far so good and then you finished it to fast. The animation wasn't that great but at least it seemed like something was actually going to happen with Captain Useless. That just messed up a somewhat good intro for your chara and now the only characters I know something about is the pesky villain, the police Chief and of course "Sandwich man".
Come on, it looked like you could have done better, unless it was a joke of course >_O

[Heartless Hope]

Te quedó padre. Definitivamente hay una mejora a las animaciones pasadas, sobre todo en los planos que escogiste para contar la historia. El fondo de bitmaps de las nubes no queda mal con el de los vectores, aunque en el plano en que se ve la silueta del protagonista cayendo, el lago que se ve al fondo por los colores se ve sobrepuesto al suelo y le quita lo padre a la imagen. Fuera de eso, son detalles de animación en los que uno mejora con la práctica como lo estás haciendo y la música que le pusiste también le quedó bien, sin necesidad de diseño sonoro o efectos de sonido para crear el ambiente.

Vas por buen camino.

PD: Por cierto, me llama la atención los rasgos de tu protagonista un tanto (dime si me equivoco) 'Timburtonianos' por eso de la piel palida, el cabello negro y la vestimenta de rayas en un entorno de monstruos oscuro a blanco y negro. Me recuerda por ejemplo a http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view /360361 o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyMPF s4dZzs&list=UUXsXAdAW7Gg1Od7-eiC3Jhw&
index=9&feature=plcp de un amigo. Solo es algo que me parece curioso encontrar frecuentemente en animaciones con historia de cierto tono ¿Qué te parece?

Ozzycris responds:

pues muchas gracias, yo se que hay unas cuantas cosas que mejorar, pero pienso mejorar! :) y si me base en los dibujos de tim burton pondre la historia ya que hare mas animaciones con este personaje, gracias por tu comentario :)

Plastic bags... Will it blend?

And if it was little, having a blender capable of molecular division, you could become rich selling those... Or just have fun blending the universe till little particles

Problem? Laundry

[Deepest Ocean]

It was a good idea

But tou could have developed it some more so when it finishes, it gives you the "this is the cycle of life and death" feeling. At this rate, it feels incomplete.

Ef-X responds:

Thanks for the review. Your right about that, no doubt when I get better I'll come back and improve this piece.

To slow for the song

Just like the last time this animation was submitted, you need to speed up the phase, maybe alternate beetween the car and the harmonica guy shots in order to hook the spectator, make him move his feet.
But if prefer to let it as it is even if other people told you the same... well, its up to you.

Celx-Media responds:

Things have changed since my last post and I have been compensated for my work...

Hehehe

Nice "mickey mousing" you got there, the play between the musis and animation.

By the way, there's a software called pencil, it's opensource, and its useful for hand-drawn animation. I think it may be easier to use than MS paint and the Windows Movie Maker hehehe.

JenniBee responds:

Thanks. :) I aimed for the classic feel of early toons, and Disney was the main source of inspiration, so "mickey mousing" is appropriate. :D

I've been experimenting with animating hand drawn art too. I made an animated version of a hand drawn comic and it came out much better than anything I could have drawn in MS Paint. :)

I asked for permission from the comic's author to post it, so if he OK's it, I'll definitely share it here. :)
