Twoeliz's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ep 1 | A Gift]

Newgrounds seems like excellent place to share your original creations because criticism is encouraged here. It seems that in other places people are more hesitant to give out an opinion that isn't extremely positive. I encourage you to keep doing episodes but let me tell you this ,to me this doesn't feel like an episode. Perhaps is the lack of noises or the lack of background. Perhaps I do not understand the animation but to me it doesn't seem like there is a clear sense of direction. If you are willing to, perhaps you can tell me what are these episodes about?

Yeah, i've been posting these on Twitter for a while now. It kinda started out as a side thing i did for a person i was looking up for, but it turned out later i would put more love and care into the series, hence why there are no sound or background atm.

The series started abit on to be a slice of life thing, where The Knight or The Doctor would just do wholesome stuff. Later finding out it needed more time to become something more than that. Needed more adventures more sound, more movement, more story, etc.

So in the end, the most healthy way to a series to grow and gain a audience is to post it where other people will see it. So thats why i posted on Newgrounds.

[Ride out at Sunrise]

I believe this is pretty well drawn and the perspective is quite nice. The background and foreground are absolutely gorgeous but my score is low because there is not much going on here. This is probably a test but it would work better as a gif.

If you want advice on animation then I would say that if you want this thing to look like is moving then loose objects should be moving like the tools inside of the box, those belt like things holding the box and the person's clothing. Ofcourse adding a spiral effect to the wheels will also make it look good when moving and because of the dirt road some sort of dust cloud behind the wheels would be a pretty nice touch.

[YowLife SharkRobot Shirts! Gamerz and Lora Vicious]

When I started watching this and saw the characters with the gaming stuff it reminded me of some random video from YouTube so I decided to check you out to see if you had it posted here and I found it . Man those kids from the gamerz short film have changed but I was still ever to recognize them even though I had only seen that video once. What kind of sorcery is it?!

[Mutual Friend]

Aw this was just so adorable! Lovely pixel art cute simple story. I don't usually see pixel animations and when I do they are usually not a cute but either way I understood that the first dog wanted to play with a soccer ball but I was never able to figure out what the second one wanted to play with. It looks like in the end they fused their ideas and it turned into some sort of racket but they didn't seem to pay in the end. I wonder if the dogs will play tomorrow due to being tired of searching for a friend all day long.

brenetcomics responds:

Thanks!!!! She wants to play tennis, so with a soccer ball combining it with a tennis racket, they could play together!

[Maternity Ward]

For a quick animation this is pretty impressive. It looks like you were able to complete a second of animation or more for every hour worked on it. Also I'm assuming you also did the voice acting so yeah man pretty good job!

[Emoji Movie- Deflective Power]

Well you got me hooked. At first everything seemed a little boring, maybe is because there wasn't much going on with the animation but then it turned into something epic. It pretty much caught me off guard!

[Happy Home]

Esta muy triste la historia y es aún más triste que esto pasa día a día. Los sucesos son bastantes reales y realmente me puedo imaginar a un niño real pasando por esto. La parte que más me impactó fue cuando fue a comprar un pastel de cumpleaños pero sólo tenía para un cupcake y eso le hizo muy feliz pero luego uno de sus padres lo destrozó sin ninguna razón... No comprendere por que algunas personas causan sufrimiento sin ninguna razón.

[Numinaia(Animated)-Skoumas]

This is the type of song the cults chant. What kind of cult is this? The one that with chanting will make sheep levitate? I just love how nonsensical this animation is. It kinda seems like the type of content I would watch when I was younger and I seem to have trouble finding stuff similar to it.

[Ticking Animation Meme]

It is a little weird that he had to shoot the deer to get into its body I mean the deer should still be injured after the shot unless death healed the wound so that the guy would have a body to be in. It is an interesting concept but I wouldn't call it reincarnation because I would think that for that to happen he must be reincarnated within a newborn. Now that I think about it maybe it would have been an interesting idea if he had to kill a soon to be mother doe to speed up the birthing progress and he could reincarnate within the body of a new born deer facing the challenge of running from death still as he would have no protection from a mother.

But enough with my random thoughts. I do like the animation even though that it looks kinda minimal because it works with the concept of death. After all there is barely any energy left to keep on moving or getting usted to a new body. I have to say that you were able to capture the beauty of a deer really well!

Thank you for the feedback! :D
