frigging incredible work dude, was laughing the whole way through haha

FinalBlackout responds:

Cheers! glad ya enjoyed it!

[Alex Lefkowitz (1986-2018): Celebration of Life's Works]

you know, I've never been able to quite put into words how I thought Alex was able to pull off so much at a time where online marketing and self pimping wasn't on the mind of every content creator.

It's only just now occurred to me how "branded" his stuff was. He didn't make content squarely for his own website or brand, it was for "FreeWorldGroup" or "TxMafia" or "ArcadeTown" that kind of thing. Which tells me he went out of his way to strike some branding or exclusivity deal with his content and got himself out there.

I highly respect that. He made a business out of it during a time that wasn't easy to do.

[I'M BATMAN!]

That was pretty funny, I liked it haha

Justalp responds:

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[Face Yourself Collab Entry- Metal Sonic v. Metal Sanik]

That ending was fantastic, very cool. I liked the weight added to every impact, and the parallax was very well done.

Did you have a script going on for the shakycam aspect or did you animate every pixel of camera movement?

JJSwift responds:

Thanks man! Glad you liked it. :D And there was no script, nor pixel... camera... thing.(Doesn't understand that part XD) I mostly tweened the camera, and for the camera shakes, for impact I just made the tweens close to each other or made them all keyframes and stuff.

[Starbomb: I Choose You to Die!!! Fanimated]

Holy shit

Color me pleasantly surprised, I REALLY loved every second of this :D ROCK ON MAN!

Art5yman responds:

thank you man!

[Bowling Pinned]

I like the fact your using frame by frame animation here, please keep that up

Aside from art cleanup and maybe adding a few more inbetweens to smooth things out, the only thing that really nagged at me was the fade transitions, its a bit too slow and kills the pacing if you ask me. For something that looks like its trying to be a Hanna Barbara whacky comedy, fade transitions should only be used when transitioning the viewer either to a fake commercial break or signifying a significant portion of time being passed. If my memory serves, everything else in a HB cartoon was jump cuts

Keep it up man! Cheers :)

ZacharyNoah responds:

Update: I corrected the fade transitions by slowing down the still shots and looping some shots. Also, I made the bomb explosion more effective by replacing the not-so-effective smoke build-up with flashing colors. Lastly, at the end of the cartoon, I replaced the generic fade-to-black effect with a more cartoony iris-out effect, accompanied by the appropriate sound effect.

Thanks for the review and noticing the errors that I made. This cartoon was made way before I even got a computer with a touch screen. It was my attempt to mimic the scratchy and sketchy animation style of the cartoons made in the 1960's and 1970's. Also, my paper amount is extremely limited. Most importantly, the fade transitions that I did was my attempt to mimic the Road Runner cartoons. Maybe for my next cartoon, I'll try and push my visual style a bit further. Thank you for enjoying!
