Exedor's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Indiana Jones Movie Facts]

Why would we subscribe on youtube when we can stay here? I find it funny and odd when new people show up and make such remarks. It's like going to Walmart and telling people to be sur they stop by Kmart and get a discount card. Why, y'know?

As for the animation, it was good. Twas very short, but good. :)

ZenithQuinn responds:

I love Newgrounds, which is why I'm uploading a day early here. I'd appreciate the support on Youtube though, as there's potentially a larger audience there but it's very hard to get started there.

Thanks for watching!

What you have is pretty decent, but where's the rest of the story? It's hard to rate a good, half-story. :\

ZackAttack1416 responds:

i am writing the rest but my computer hard drive is getting fixed!

It was actually not bad. The use of pictures instead of being fully drawn will affect your score. Still, not bad.

plasticapple responds:

I'll see what I can do with the backgrounds. Thank you! :)

[Worm Crawling In Me Kinda]

As a test, it's ok. As an animation in the Portal, it's lacking. It needs a story to make it complete, and 4 seconds is just not enough. What you have so far looks great, tho, so yeah, please continue!

With that being said, 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.

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 or blams, which you don't want.

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

Keep working at it, and make 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. :)

Demonty responds:

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

OMG, what happens?!! :O

I did that once. I went to Dairy Queen in the snow. The sign said the lobby was open til 8:30 and it was only 8:00 but it was closed & locked. When they saw me, they all hid behind the counter and in the back. Then, I was determined. I kept knocking.

When they finally came and opened the door, I brushed past the guy and into the lobby, "whew, thanks! It was cold out there!" He told me the lobby was closed. I told him that if they'd have come to the door and told me to use the drive-thru because they had to close the lobby early, then I'd have been fine. But because they hid and left me out there, I wanted my order. Please.

The manager girl was stomping around. I probably delayed her from a hot date or something. The guy just still looked lost. Oh well, at least I got my order: a pee flavored Blizzard. :)

JK, I watched them closely as they made it so they couldn't screw with it.

I liked this animation, and can't wait for the next part!!

CartoonCoffee responds:

Hahaha I'm glad you were able to relate! I'm glad it all worked out with you and DQ
