Exedor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

Dude. You've got 36 seconds of "animation" and almost 3 minutes of credits!! Put a fade out on that music and call it done within a reasonable amount of time! >:\

[Animation test]

Simple, but not bad. Change the name, so it has a real name, and call it done.

[Test 01]

Change the name to something decent, and call it done! :)

[Adultery]

HAW!!!! xD

Music credits for the end???

[Hand Turkey]

...I know what ELSE he uses that hand for... ;)

Awesome vid. :3

Actually, what you have is really good. The animation is smooth, and everything's reasonable well drawn, for what it is. Looks like you've got what it takes, and I look forward to seeing a real animation from you in the future!

In the meantime, tho...

Please don't submit tests or unfinished things to the Portal. If people submit unfinished things, then this will become an unimpressive site. Would you hang out on a site where none of the movies or games are completed? Think about it.

And that's what makes this one such a big problem: it's COOL!! Now, everyone will want to send thru their unfinished bits and pieces, and I doubt they'll be anything like this.

If you want feedback, tips, and ideas, that's fine, but this isn't the best place for this. The Portal is for finished items. The Forums are what you want. Load this into your Dumping Grounds. It's the third icon from the left at the very top of the page when you're signed in. It looks like a bucket with an arrow pointing down. Once it's loaded there, copy and paste the link into the Forums (Community>Forums). That way, people see it and give tips, which is what you want, but it's not in the Portal, filling your account with low scores, which you don't want. I doubt this will get a crappy score, but when you get a finished one up, ...wow; I expect great scores!

The Portal isn't for tests or unfinished submissions, tho: http://www.newgrounds.com/wiki/help-information/content-submission

Keep working at it, and I know you'll bring us something great!

Good luck. :)

It's ...ok. THere's just not enough to it. :\

How to put sound in Flash.
-Import the sound you want to use into your library (Import to Library).
-Make a new layer to put your sounds into. Sound needs a frame all to itself; if there's another object in the frame, it won't work, so make a new layer that's only for sound. I make 1 layer for music & sounds and one for voice & sounds. I've never needed more than 2 layers, but my flashes haven't been very involved yet.
-Make a new, empty frame where you want your sound to start.
-Drag the sound clip from the library and drop it onto the stage. Now, you won't see anything on the stage, but you should see the blue sound line in the frame on your sound layer in your timeline. If it's elsewhere, then another layer was selected (you can lock all the other layers to prevent this). If it's nowhere, then something was done incorrectly.

Now, you want to do 2 things.
1. In the options in the Properties box, change the 'sync' to "Stream" instead of "Event." What this does is it plays the sound when you play the flash and stops the sound when you stop the flash. "Event" will play the entire sound clip, even if you stop the flash.
2. Your sound will only play in the frames you give it (under the Stream setting), so in your timeline and on the sound layer, click the frame where the sound is and push F5 (Insert Frame) to expand the box (frame) that has the sound until it has enough frames to play the entire sound.

Go to my most recent news post for links to tutorials that'll help. :)

Thanks a lot C:
I'll try it tomorrow when it stops being 2 am and I can record sound without anybody yelling at me to shut up and go to bed
