ChrisMckiernan's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[What is Love?]

Shes going to make one lucky man so happy one day.

2D Animation is good.

Audio quality needs to clearer.

This was funny.

[FFXV: Booty of the First King]

At first I thought this was a serious attempt on a new anime series on newgrounds.
But then...those faces... the booty... and scooby doo.

Great 2D animation.
Style reminds me of Tokyo Ghoul or Attack on Titan.

Very nice:)

[Steamed Hams animation collab]

A Great job to all who were involved in making this
You all really payed homage to a classic simpsons episode.

This was entertaing:)

[TD-Suicide Week]

Everything you described and retold in this, sounds just like me and how I'm feeling right now.
The story differs a bit and...
Even though I graduated college already...

I still have to see a girl that meant a lot to me everyday and we act like strangers towards each other at work and never hang out like we use to.

I've been applying to artist, animation, and design jobs for the past 4 months and I havn't gotten a single interview.
It sucks the passion and love i had for art and creating. It makes me question my entire life and I hate and dread applying to jobs. Because I feel they will never reach out to with my mediocre art and animation skills.
Or maybe they'll hire someone who has a masters degree or someone who went to a more prestigous and expensive college than I did.

i hate this shit economy.

Friends come and go. I wish that wasn't the case. i wish you could hold onto friends forever. i've been through so many groups of friends. I don't have much right now.

Anyway,
These are great. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way you do at some level.
Great stuff.

[Zombie Mario!!]

Its your first.
Like you said.

Its not bad.
Its somewhat entertaining.

You'll only get better if you keep practicing and making more.

Keep at it:)

Thanks!

[Lost The Plot | S1 EP 12 | The Lost Episode]

Good character designs and backgrounds.
The animation wasn't very good except for maybe the lipsync on the characters.
But even that didn't really match up well with the dialogue.

Your video quality looks very "standard definition" Go for HD (1280x720 or 1920x1080).
It'll look better.

NF7STUDIOS responds:

Yes Thank you for the review! as I have said before, I'm a self taught animator editor etc.. I only get to do this in my spare time.. and I can't afford Adobe Animate at this point.. So I had to go with a cheaper software.. I have had more animations uploaded to my YouTube channel You can check it out and let me know what you think I recommend Nathans Mashup Number 3 :) I had a bit more time to work on that one :) I also upload at 1080P now :)

[Mario Kart Double Dash Parody]

I'm sorry.

If your using 3D movie maker.
Please stop.

Horrible video quality, the animation is non existent.
You just have some poorly made models moving around in random directions.

Then you've got some random voice audio that is coming from everywhere.
Since there's no actual animation or lipsync, you can't tell who is saying what.

[Lost The Plot | S1 EP 10 | Skit 10]

You got some very professional and well made looking intro's, credits, logos, trademarks, etc.

But the bread and butter of your videos should be the animation itself and what your presenting in your video.

The character designs were good and the animation was not very complex.

The dialogue was funny and original.
Though it only lasted for about a minute.

You also had a copyrighted background image from "The Lion King".

I know it fit well with the humor and theme of your video, but if you want to be taken seriously as a professional animator. You can't do that (unless its creative commons or in the public domain)

Work on your animation skills and lay off all the intros and marketing for your channel.

Keep animating:)

NF7STUDIOS responds:

Thank you for the feedback! Back when I made this I wasn't really focusing on my animations as major in my life.. More of just a hobby.. But now I wouldn't do these things If I work on new videos! :) Check out my YouTube channel I have some newer stuff over there and You will see that I've updated my skill level :)

[Gotcha]

The live-action build up was good.

At first glance, the monster looked like a plastic or silicone puppet.
but then in description you said it was CG.

If I could confuse your cg model with a animitronic puppet, then you got some major CG modeling skills.

Very Nice.

MiddleFingerRings responds:

Thanks a lot! Nice to hear.

[Murder Dream]

Really surreal.
I like the rough spontaneous animation style.
It gives it a lot of charm and personality.
