ShadyDingo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The SalaryMan]

This is a wonderful animation that I absolutely had to share today. This is a phenomenal example of what animating is capable of. What its purpose is. How powerful a great animation can be.

Being close to graduating I know I work a lot on my homework and even some more after that, constantly finding ways to busy myself with side projects and responsibilities while I get closer to graduation. I am proud of my work and love watching how my ability to be artsy grows over time. Being able to share it with everyone and to get back all the great feedback and critiques that I've worked for essentially.

But this has, and will continue to, affected my life. Be it my friendships, social moments or my relationship and family. I have a lot about to happen in my life, and a huge responsibility to take care of soon. Will I be able to be the man I need to be and take care of those who will need me most? While at the same time being able to pursue what I love in hopes that it will help fund my future and those who will be coming along with me.

Time will tell.

It has a good start, but needs a LOT of work. Some areas to look at are
- Audio (could barely understand what they were saying, granted it may have been in a foreign language but the quality was so low it was just noise to me)
- Needs more frames and more animation. The lip sync was probably the best part next to facial expressions.)
Don't give up, but know that you have a lot of work ahead of you in order to get better quality animations going.

Hadimation responds:

Thanks, i still don't have a mic so the quality was low and it was actually a lip sinc test so i did not want to animate the body

[Things I hate as an Artis]

I feel as though this belongs more on Youtube than NG, but perhaps that's just me. Granted I assume that this is a parody of sorts, you should never be too "tied down" to your work. If people hate on you, let them hate on you. But, take into consideration what they have to say. If they say it sucks, ask how it could be improved. Sure, there are some jerks out there who will say things like "You can never improve, stop now you moron." Instead of taking it personally, use it as fuel to push you to do better and grow as an artist.

Cybernatium responds:

yeah you are right! Constructive criticism is cool, but hating might be something i dont like, i mean how much i tried to ignore it, still, hate is just hate.

[We Are Not Alone + Update]

That was entertaining. Guess she should have been looking for advice from her cook books. Perhaps the blender would listen to her more if she wasn't trying to talk over it.

[MK: Luigi Death Stare]

Great combo of Mario Kart and Mortal Kombat trailers and such. Very nicely done :)

[Billy And Martha]

A good start, but you have a lot to learn ;) Keep it up, don't stop what you're doing, and work on checking out tutorials and trying new things, different techniques, etc.

kreechum responds:

Thank you mister, and I agree, I do have a lot to learn, in the mean time, this is the way I know how to do it, but I'll learn new things in time.

[Jade vs Liun Kang Fatalit]

Should be M, not T
Too much anticipation/follow through
Too drawn out to be a good enough animation.

[Piltover gets Jinxed!]

Alrigt, alright, I understand why you went to boobs to get attention, this was much better, same with the guillotine animation. I'm sorry Newgrounds is a toxic place where only hardons are appreciated.

RetroSleep responds:

Haha, its fine. I take no offense I knew where you where coming from so I understood, but hey! Glad you liked my other videos. I'm taking a quick LoL break though, my next video is going to be Game of Thrones. I'm approaching it like Guillotine or Jinxed but I'm keeping the line-less art style I did in Feeders. I really liked the BGs and stuff from that one lol. Well I'm looking forward to your next review I really do take every opinion I get into consideration, so thanks.

[Buy Wards You Feeders]

Animation isn't bad. But I honestly got pissed off immediately when I saw that this video was mainly about Caitlyn's bust and ass. I get that the internet is filled with a bunch of testosterone filled fuckwits between the ages of 10 and 18, but make it tasteful, this was just awful as an entire piece. I honestly hate that it made it to the front page over what I would presume are more worthy, honest animations. Not some fucking eye candy for literally no goddamn purpose at all.

RetroSleep responds:

Well unfortunatly thats how it works, go look at my other videos you would probobly consider atleast one of them a "more worthy, honest animation". Then notice how it didn't get FP or really any attention at all.

[A Bad Night For Batman]

With respect,

This was lousy. The exaggerated faces are old and you overused them, I'd even go as far to say abused them. The voice work was decent, and the quality of the animation was alright, but it was all too inconsistent. The face at one point would move with the words, the next it wouldn't. Puppeting looks terrible in my opinion. The colors worked well for you, so nice work on that. The overall parody was lame, and it really wasn't that funny. You can do much better than this. I'm sort of upset that this made front page really, but I won't hold it against you.
