Not great, not bad, needs some work

The lipsynching wasn't terrible, but it could use some work. The best advice is to up the frame rate and go frame by frame.

Nice little script there in the beginning making people think you're insulting them, though. That's pretty funny!

cHunter responds:

Yeah, that's what I was doing for the most part for the lips, but the audio went out of sync for some reason. It synced up on my computer, but when I uploaded it, it decided to wack out. :(

Not bad...but needs some work on the synching

Well...I hate to say it, but I really believe that people are voting higher on this than they normally would simply because of the song used.

The characters were really out of synch in a lot of places and the overall animation was very slow. In addition, the sprites jumped around a bit, as the author didn't really find their "anchor point" at all.

Considering this is your first submission, it is decent, but on the next submission people won't be as forgiving. Increase the frame rate, make sure your sprites don't move around, and really make sure that your synch is spot on.

All those things make a sub-par Phoenix Wrong submission into a good one, and a good one into a great one. The rest has to do with audio selection. Keep up the work and keep learning.

moviemaker1127 responds:

you are right. I did use frame rate 12, a mistake I made halfway through the video. I tried to fix it but it screwed over the rest of the beginning and I tried to make due. Im guessing that synchronization would be 10x easier with a larger frame rate. also, if you could, along the lines of anchor points, how do I create efficent ones? It was hard enough trying to onion skin and border my way to synch them up. Also, some of these jumps and movements were created on their own, somehow, toward the end of this animation, things started moving. I don't know why maybe it was something I pressed. If you could provide with some tutorial, that would be awesomely helpful. ^-^ thanks!

Yes, you're back!

These are so random that they make me crack up and cry from laughing so hard.

On the next episode, I hope you go a little more "old school" (episodes 1 through 15), though. I'd give you a 10 then.

Don't bother waiting for this to "load"

While the rendition of the song is very entertaining, and I wish it was on the Audio Portal, there is no actual animation to this.

It's just a few words, a fake loading text, and a static drawing.

Heavy storyline driven, but not much else

The animation was really lacking. While it had the Madness characters, most of the movie was just a lot of static text which just popped up. There was really only one part that had any animation, and it was very short.

I understand the concept of the movie, but the presentation just wasn't all that exciting.

TehBoss responds:

Ok, whatever. Anyways, thanks for the review :).

Entertaining little parody

I have to say, while the the person who sang the song is terrible, you're really on to something there with the lyrics. If you can find someone with a really good voice to sing your lyrics, you'd get a higher score.

The animation was just okay, but if it had better singing, it would work rather well

Excellent as always. Truly epic

I have to say, this was even funnier than the last episode. Everything flowed and fit in very well. The secret scene was awesome, too.

I wish it was a little longer, but that's a personal preference.

I certainly hope the next episodes comes out soon!

Clovis15 responds:

If my work permits, Episode 18 will be out before the end of this year. Don't ever expect to see episodes be much longer than this ever again. With all the little touches and effort I put into every episode of CTU, it is just murder on myself to make something like Episode 16.

Decent, not great. Okay, not perfect.

Well, it's a funny song and that's what most people are going to be voting on, rather than the actual quality of the animation.

Your lip synching was good, but the entire animation as a whole felt lacking. You need more dynamic shots of the characters while they are performing.

Work on the placement of your sprite as well, because there were several times when they'd move around when transitioning between poses, and they weren't always in the right spot for the stills (Phoenix too far from the left side and it left an obvious gap, for instance, when looking forward with his right and on his hip).

It was just okay for me.

perpetual-mind responds:

thanx.
i know theres quite alot wrong with it but its all in the process of learning.
i found it quite awequard to get the characters to lip sync correctly and move how i wanted to since i was limited by the sprites i had, but i made do with what i got.
every time i watch it back i realise new things that arent right, so if i ever make another sprite movie i should be able to avoid alot of these mistakes XD

Needs work, sound, a lot of love

You need to fix your sprites: they bounce all over the place. Also, work on your animation. The character don't move fluidly at all. It's very obvious where the tweening is.

Fix the size of your background to match the size of your sprites, or vice versa. Two small sprites on a massive background is no fun for anyone.

Where's the sound? It's very boring to watch two poorly animated sprites do battle with no sound.

Hilarious parody of the prehistoric kind

Wow...the animation, once again, is really fantastic. The parody is spot on and the characters are as entertaining as always. The sound wasn't as optimized as it probably could have been, though.

megaener responds:

thanks (I am not good with sound making XD)
