Amazed and honored!

About 3 seconds into this, I felt a wave of delicious refreshment. Awesome piece! You have a great sense of volume and perspective. Colors, design, composition, all top notch. Usually NGers hate stuff this short, but its a testament to your talent that it's being so well received. Bravo.

After watching, I read your Author comments and I must say, I am honored to be cited as an influence. Great job, man!

scribblepit responds:

Oh wow. Thanks for all the flattering words! I can't believe you actually saw this. Incredible, thanks again!

Jazz kilt it!

S'apnin Young Jazz, good to see you're steady producing. That shit was top notch! Great way to establish the feel of the city and characters while staying funny/irreverent yet not anti-preachy. "See n***a? We feel you!" hahahaha! Priceless. Keep it up man, solid animation.

JazLyte responds:

Oh snap, thanks man :) SickRonald's does feel you, n***a.

Delicous

My mouth is watering. That was crazy well directed and composed. Solid chars and good animation. Effects could be better (but effects can always be better right?). I'm really looking forward to what you guys put out.

NightShadowTWO responds:

heheh actually this was a one-man-job. most of the credits was nonsense.

Awesome stuff, HUGE potential

You've got some major skills man, I'm excited to see what you make in the future. The shortness wasnt a problem for me, as you conveyed the entire idea, but I think the one thing you need to work on is timing. Find those spots where you can really let the shot sink in before you move on, otherwise people wont really be able to process what you've shown them. It shows off your art more and keeps people from getting flustered and confused. Fast pacing is awesome (that's all I do), but it's a constant battle between speed and readability/suspense.

Keep pwnin it!

I'm glad you liked it! I know what you mean by the money shots. I tried to extend some of them by looping 2 frames that are stagnant in motion. i'm going to make another one though.

Yes!

Awesome voice acting, awesome writing, effective animation. One question, was that ToonBoom?

After Effects. :)

Settle down skilled one

10/10 For originality of style and for putting some serious time into the quality and smoothness of the drawings. Awesome work, but you gotta pull it all together man. I know it's really hard to work on one thing for a long time, but perhaps you should just keep your goals more realistic. Try for a 1 minute piece, I'm sure if you kept it short you could get through it. I only wrote this review because I see a lot of talent and potential in you and I'd hate to see it wasted. Reach for greatness.

JazLyte responds:

Yeah I might just be thinking too much, I'll try curbing my ambitiousness a little bit, it gets out of hand. Damn, thanks though man, that means alot coming from you =)

Brilliant as usual!

Chris, I love everything you do. Your unique timing, humor, and superb voice acting are delicious. Congrats on the Aniboom sponsorship, hope you're getting all you deserve. Good job man!

Sexual-Lobster responds:

glad you liked it! don't worry, aniboom feeds me twice a day, it's all I deserve...

Pretty good, but could be better

Very imaginative, I appreciate the original approach and concepts. But to me it doesn't feel like a dream at all. Instead it feels more like a random fight scene. It seems like the dream setting is more of a cop-out or a way to justify a little bit of randomness. But dreams, I feel, are even more random. I think you could push the dreaminess. Make dreamlike transitions between shots or scenes, instead of logical ones. The concept of time in dreams is often less realistic or straight-forward. Also, there was little to no character development. If it's to be a dream, I ought to know something about the way this monster thinks from the piece. So far... he's afraid of something attacking him, and would love to sail to the stars. But there should be more in his reactions, some level of emotion. I liked in your extras the shot where the beast looks down at the character and there's some level of interaction and thinking. That is character development. There must be some illusion of thought or motive (even if it's a nonsensical reason). Keep at it,
Kevin

animatorjones responds:

done and done, will do better next time. big fan Kevin, and in fact it was your submission that helped me hop back on the drawing board a little ways back, i've been off and on many times unfortunately... lol anyway...

you are right, there is something to be said about a dream's limitless possibilities, and perhaps i should have pushed for that feel even more. my next piece (probably not a dream) ill try to be true to the setting 100% i trust your judgement strongly even though i may not know you personally haha, your work is just too good :D so i am going to take what you said to heart and apply it.

thanks for taking the time to review and give me some constructive feedback, it won't be wasted.

-Jones

Your best work yet!

VERY solid directing and writing, brilliant piece man! You're improving immensely and I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into this piece. The art is adequate and well used, and the music was MUA *stereotypically italian gesture*. Keep it up, of the comedy shows on NG, this one might take the cake.
-Kevin

eddsworld responds:

Thanks for the kind words, it means a lot coming from you!

HAhahahaha

Oh man way to jerk our expectations, beautiful set up and incredibly realistic execution. Well done!

HappyHarry responds:

That means a lot coming from you dude.

Your stuff has come on immensely well in the last few years, I like to think mine has too, but not to the same degree yours has. Looking forward to the next installment of Khale.

I love animation. I love music. Leafworthy is where that comes together.
