Okay, so, I decided I want to make an animated webseries. But I couldn’t decide what it should be about, so what I’ve done for the first episode is just take every single old unused or underused idea of mine, plus anything else I could think of, stick them all together, and animate it all as fast as I can (which turned out to be three weeks) to prove that the project is feasible and I could come out with another episode reasonably soon. It’s basically a big brainstormy mishmash of niftiness, and here it is:
Too lazy to convert it to Quicktime yet (only have Quicktime Pro on my dad’s computer), even though one shot doesn’t make sense unless it’s Quicktime. I’ll get around to it at some point.
Now, I need lots of feedback, so that I can figure out where to go with this and hopefully come out of it with something coherent (and, you know, good). Opinions on which parts are good and which parts are bad, suggestions of what it should be about, proud exclamations if you got some of the subtler references and easter eggs and some of the more surreal humor, and so on and so forth…
i just loved the first character, the jello guy… all the switching was great and working, until you got into the scene with white teapottish guy and the other guy with turtle on the head… that part didn’t work for me at all… nothing happened… it felt like addon.
also the spaceship was a bit unnecessary extra.
ending was good too.
i liked the animation of jello guy dropping on the wall in the end.
nice dude. that was great, although your starting credits seemd to go by fast, well, not that that was bad thing, just odd, then again watches animation again nope nevermind, fits perfictly
that was soo cool! I love it! fantastic kind of humor! And it was absolutely great, that some parts looked kind of weird, (the turtle, the spaceship that makes no sense at all, …). I think, it’s the musik, that holds it all together.
great!
Animation was absolutely superb, you should sign on with the (edit) next Orange project. Seriously.
Two problems I noticed. First there’s not enough keyframes in the actual compressed video, so faster motion stuff (towards the end) was blurry and highly compressed looking. Second the light switch close-up could’ve used a higher-quality model, but that’s not a huge deal.
Constructive crits? Heck… I just loved the sheer randomness of that 1:06 of animation XD. It was just zany. The piano music… the lightswitches doing random stuff… to top it all off the animation quality was exceptionally high. Gah… so many people been doing 3D longer than me… Weird hat is one of them >.<;.
Perhaps if you wished to mold this into some sort of (remotely) meaningful project you could produce various cameos involving the scenarios you made… I dunno… the adventures of the fluffy velvet guy as he presses random light switches… the dude with the turtle on his head talking to the white toothpaste looking guy… etcetera? I dunno… I liked the clip though.
Nice work
