MellonSnow's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[I Deserve This]

It's got a cute style but i'm not entirely sure what is happening or what the "story" is!

NinyaBOT responds:

Yeah this is my first time animating anything as well as using Vegas pro so it was mostly just random practice for both things haha

[Take Out The Trash]

Hot dang this music slaps!! Hope you'll put it up on NG :D
Awesome job, also with the animation!

[Another Evangelion Reboot]

The kaworu part destroyed me pffhaha

[Shit mewtwo has to deal with]

looooool this made me laugh. The timing of the pikachu and the punching is hilarious and though i think a better mic for higher audio quality would be good i like the voice acting!

Art wise i think either lines or more contrast in the colors might help give the whole more clarity and crispyness!

Great work!
(p.s. i do believe in the Japanese version mewtwo actually has a female voice so...might make for nice material for a follow-up? *eyebrow wiggle* ohoho)

[How to compliment an artist]

Hahaha, i love this!
The animation and the drawings are still a bit messy and i think the voice acting could use a little bit more punch but i adore the expressions and the fun style a lot!
The concept is also funny and i'm looking forward to more of your works! :D

[Paper Bunny]

Love the stop motion animation! It's got such a charm to it :D
Really cute!

[small ENEMY SPIDER]

Holy shit i had to get up from my lying down chillin' position to write this cause this is flippin' fantastic!!

I was scream-laughing through the entire thing oh my god.
The animation is top notch and the comedic timing perfect!

Fantastic job!!

[Why are you floating?]

The narration in the beginning really cracked me up. It's really dry and silly so that made me laugh!

Same with the first shot of the 3 guys, it's funny in the beginning but it does drag on too long i think. The audio is also pretty low so i had to turn it up to hear what they're saying (which really really was not fun when they suddenly started screaming after the other guy came back....That's where i stopped watching cause my ears got destroyed :( Next time, check the volume differences and see if you can get better equipment so the audio doesn't freak out with higher volumes!)

I think the idea of the long shot was to show how incompetent the guys really are, correct? This can be a very funny premise but i would advise using more shots, different camera angles and more physical "acting" by the characters.
You could show them fumbling with equipment for example, or just more shots of them walking through the place where they are.
Zooming out will also help with the punchline when the other dude comes back floating. Because the shot is so close it took me awhile to realize he was hanging in the air!

Keep it up and you'll get better and better! Hope this feedback will be of some help :)

Rick-The-Brick responds:

Thanks for this feedback! Very helpful. I agree with you on the sound I realised it was a bit too quiet after I uploaded it onto youtube and here. Perhaps I could have included more shots but tbh this was just a side project so I didn't want to put too much time into it. On my main project I definetly do a range of cool shots. Thanks though. I always apppreciate feedback like this :-)

[Poetry Lovers]

Really cute style and i love the animation!

I do agree that the story could use a little bit more direction/ a punchline. I think you could also get away with a little less sound effects. It's feels a bit much to me and it might give it more "room" with more silence and let the movements of the characters speak for itself!

Otherwise great work and keep it up! :D
