Black-Crystal's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Across the Universe Ep.2]

seriously good

That is really good. This can really look like a real piece of anime/cartoon.

Keep it up & make episode 3.

[Naudhiz]

not bad

It is quite cool and dark. I see potential in what you can do. If you are serious, you should get into human anatomy and the principles of animation.

[Saigo No Shigoto]

impressive

good directing, good animation and a steady pacing. Very good overall. But if i were you, i will choose a night situation or a sunset situation to begin the fight, there will be more contrast in tones and the mood will be epic.

Venom:- "everyone thought i was afraid of daylight. well i showed them, heh.."

[ArcSaga: Awakening Part 1]

good

The models are awesome. You could make some mind blowing movie if you are willing to put in alot of effort and patience. The thing that is lacking and is also the hardest is the animation.

SoftDinsum responds:

Thank you!
I'll look into a form of animation, and I'll work from there!

[Operation: Graveyard]

amazing

Amazing, i am very surprised that you took 3 weeks to do all of these by yourself. Impressive! I also see that you can paint and draw well. The best thing is that it isn't overly violence that become unpleasant

[|~Snow Snow For Lucy~|]

Nice

It is good. I kinda expect the talking robot head to have some sort of a major role but it doesn't seem to have any. It dont feel like 22 minutes because everything flows really well.

Can i know what softwares you used to create everything?

SpikeVallentine responds:

Thank you for your appreciation and sharing your opinion.
Whatever God has blessed me with, all the Glory to Him.

Adobe Flash CS3 = Animation/Coloring characters/props.
Adobe Photoshop = Backgrounds
FL Studio 8 = Composing the music
Adobe Premiere Pro = Editing everything
After Effects = Little things here and there

[Microcosm]

creative

That is creative. Story is easily understandable and i am hooked to the very end.

[//Necropolis Xenophobe]

wow

your drawings and toning have improved greatly. Did you draw all those fight scenes becos it is looking really good

[2 - The Story of Khale]

good

I like the high saturated colors, the environments and also the cute stylish characters.

I dont think flash animations really need a awesome storyline to be great. It just need to be interesting enough to attract people and also some unexpected turns of events. No randomness is good too.

[Gift of Ages]

impressive

The plot is really unexpected.. I really like the way how jesus affected the guy which then made him into santa and also why santa is dressed in red because of the blood.

The graphic, animation and the music really fits the whole theme. This is a smart animation.
