Niggit's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[A lonely night]

95% would befriend because "Dnd gobo girls unite - signed my own goblin girl",

bunch of critique stuff:

-Wishing this was a bit more zoomed in because it feels a bit empty and far away. If the goal is to underline how lonely she feels it works, but it could have been divided into 2 different shots, one up of her up close where she's looking at her phone followed by the zoom out showing her alone in her king-size bed (D':)

-I wish the animation was a bit longer but for a fully colorised animation can't complain, I love her design and the attention to details like the matress and the hair moving with her, the concept of a late night sadness is fun!

-The animation of her arm going down is cool though a little bit too steady, Hair is hard to animate and hair while someone is laying on top even harder but it could have been kept in place but just slightly dragged as she moved :3 (right now the hair behind her is a bit too visibly being free deformed)

- The white flash at the end of the loop hurts the eye D: ( for a moment I really thought this was part of the animation and represented rain and thunder outside of her room)

edit 1: daaw Really glad to have my comment be useful to you in some way :'3! Animation is like any other medium every artist has their unique take on it and I know that the more you'll try your hand at it and more your unique voice will shine, there's already something there so I really encourage you to pursue it if it is something you find fun to do! If you need any recommandation in terms of free software to put together your animations let me know :D!

Also on the fact that this is vent art, definitly got that vibe and understand the feeling 100%, Being ignored on things you put efforts in hurts but really it's best to like vibe and do your thing! Those who matter will stick around uvu! Don't let this stop you! ^^ There are plenty of school of fish in the sea, and all in due time you'll find your people >:3 #GoboGalsUnited

Hey! Thank you for the criticism ! I'm new at animating and still trying to understand the basics. I think the program I used to make it into a video file added the random white screen, sorry about that.

But I feel like I could learn from what you've told me and I highly appreciate it :)

The story behind it was a bit of a vent art. Essentially of no matter what I do or say, always getting ignored but it hitting the hardest when a friend server does that whilst one other person gets all the attention.

But I am glad you liked it! I will keep working on it and try to improve !

[sideways sunday]

Really sweet designs and aesthetic. The backgrounds are top notch. Animation fit the music pretty well imo ^^ Coming over directly from the Memoir* museum video I can safely say I largely enjoy Sideways Sundays (love the name too lol) more!

One a side note: can't help but be reminded of the manga/anime Girls' last tour. With the after world apocalypse (it seems?) misery and cute girls who can do nothing about it but strive in what's left and all! Lovely.

*Edit 1: I am a *poor sighted moron* lmfao- didn't notice the tags and didn't realize (if the "read shimsim" was always there) that it was refering to another artist's work! I was indeed refering to your work since I was under the impression *Memoir Museum* was in the same world continuity xD -your work is so eery, cute and awesome too, impossible to not feel things while watching your shorts-

Omg though didn't hear about this other work of theirs! thanks for the recommandation ;;! (bumped up to a half star because you were super sweet about my stupidity and fanimations need more love) <3

NueSB responds:

thank you! i'm not sure if you meant my stuff in general or this animation, but this one is actually based on a manga by the same author as GLT (shimeji simulation). they touch on similar grounds thematically but in very different and interesting ways- check it out if you haven't

[School Makes Me Sad]

Tiny wall incoming:

gotta agree with ShaeGuy here to some extent. Will not say it's bad quality, it's clearly a personal vent/storytime type of video. The goal usually is to talk not forcefully get awards so well lol. They DO exist on NG I've seen those before.

It is not unheard of for folks to animate to other people's interviews and speeches or what not BUT that specific style with really scribbled draw my life-like animation isn't the type of things that has growth potential on NG (unless it's "shitpost-y"or somebody has a very distinctive style of doing things, as far as I can tell at least so y'all correct me if I'm wrong).

I'm a tourist so I'm doing things my sauce and maybe you as well? but personally, I find it always good to think about the type of audience on a website before posting! Like for example: I'm sure you are aware one would not behave or post the same way on the same topics on Twitter than they would on ,say, Reddit, Tiktok Deviantart or 4chan ? It's like different pools of people ^^

I find your way of representing things and art style really cute! There's an effort in editing too, I was suprised to see protogen stuff on here :000 there are furries but I wasn't expecting to see that type here as a main character! I do think this type of things you're making could benefit from some more motion in your animations and to be a bit less doodle-y rough. It being your first time and all ? I can see and safely say you can ART and convey things. Just gotta push further ! and that can only come as you keep at it.

Nothing HAS to be a 24/60 fps smooth fest (it would be silly) or what but just more "detailed" animations in key moments to really dress up what you are talking about and make it appealing (which it already does! it has its own charm). Especially on NG. So yes. I think it likely would work best on Youtube (where you could advertise it via shorts) and/or Tik Tok. You're on NG and out of all the social medias out there it's the one of the rare giving the most judging power to people from the creative to audience side of things. It's by no means perfect but the mentality and expectations nurtered here just aren't the same... ? It's risky, it's a bet but at the end of the day keep practicing Kasperanza.

tl;dr: -From personnal observation- NG audience is ...something lol, if you wanna impress majority here you might need to work on your script and overall presentation, audio quality, visuals ,etc. You absolutely can do storytime videos but it will take you doing more to get a vibe for what you do

Good luck Kasperanza.

Kasperanza responds:

Thank you, I appreciate your constructive criticism, unlike some other people
I'll take what you said into account for my next project

Maybe what I post isn't fit for NG, but I feel like I've got nothing to lose by posting

I'll admit, I kind of rushed it because I just wanted to get one project under my belt. I've noticed that being too perfectionistic stops me from making any art. I'd much rather have something bad than nothing at all.

Thanks for the compliments too
