The animation is good, the audio is good, everything is good except how this is a spinet of a full project that you should have held off and posted when it was done

StarLockStudio responds:

We are not in charge when they post the final product. It's a group of artists. We just wanted to share our bit with you guys as we will likely not have the permission to show the finished version on this platform.

I've been waiting for 2 years to write this review:
he is in

I've seen quite a few of these pop up around the portals, while the animation has improved you still use text to speech- something which I am not too big of a fan of and judging by the reviews people leave other aren't as well. Some of your backgrounds are clearly just photos with a cartoony filter over them which just seems kinda lazy.
But what really drags this down is the plot- no one wants to come to Newgrounds to watch a webisode about recycling. Though that mainly comes down to how you presented it. I've seen shows where they take a basic concept such as making a cake or walking the dog that is presented well and makes the animation good over all but that is all because there is some sort of obstacle prevented the protagonist from achieving what they want. Here there is no obstacle there isn't even a protagonist from what I've seen.
It's just "hey recycle" "oh someone did not recycle but it's cool" end
there were no stakes and it was over all boring to watch.

So how could one improve this? Well:
Focus on a single character, know what they want- what keeps them from getting what they want
now know the obstacle
How does the character want to get around this?

This movie was nothing to watch really there was no need for this story to be told in my opinion, no stakes were at play.

Think of your favorite book, play, or movie. It has characters perusing something but something else keeps them from getting this, creating drama.

ie: Spongebob makes krabby patty pizza so he and Squifward set off to deliver it (characters and what they want), along the way they get lost (obstacle), through the trials they are tempted as squid-ward is trying to get the pizza but spongebob refuses to let him have it because it's for the customer (conflict/drama), they eventually get it delivered and everything is good.

People love drama/conflict and to refuse to acknowledge that is to refuse to entertain.

I advice increasing your voice volume, I have to have my speakers on max just to vaguely hear you, I also recommend putting gameplay footage in the background and moving your character and their desk to the bottom right hand side of the screen, on top of that you should have more gestures and animation to your character, from what I've seen he just moves his eyes and occasionally his mouth will close , though you can add arm gestures and other animations to this.

I gave you a zero vote wise because I heard the intro and fucking smashed that shit because usually movies that open with that kind of shit end up being sonic OC fantasies but after the intro it was legitimately good, I'm sorry.

JComX responds:

Hahaha I'm not even mad! Lol that's pretty funny. Don't sweat it. Glad you liked it.

I couldn't understand what was happening, all I could fallow is that you traced over some anime stuff or something. Sorry Bruh

AtomikalOfficial responds:

That last part is true. I did have to use some intros as a reference. I was short on time and had to cut out some things since the deadline was 3 days away at the time.
I do appreciate your comment though, Helps me out a bit

Animation was ok, though it all felt very lazy.
You should also credit Khonjin sense you took the audio from his video.

This is great! I was planning this myself but it seems that you beat me to it.

Carbonwater responds:

Planning does nothing without any actions.
Wasn't easy, i'll tell you that much!

Voice acting was good, you should animate the characters rather than just tweening them around.

Unrighteous responds:

Thank you! Completely agree, next time I'll aim for something shorter, but of much higher quality. For some reason all animation software likes to crash on me, and I just wanted to test the waters first. Now that I have some experience, I'll aim higher :D

Looks like something out of monster hunter and I am loving it.

FL-Nordin responds:

I was loving it aswell, so i might try some beast hunting again ;)
