Hey, this is the first draft of my newest video. Some things are still a bit rough around the edges, but it's enough to get a basic idea of the video, I think.

So:

  • Is it funny to begin with?
  • Is my sound good? (volume, clarity of speech)
  • Are the sound effects distracting or are they enhancing the video?
  • Are the animations good? Is it clear who is talking at which point?
  • How's the pacing?

Haiiiii.

So gonna start by saying the voices are plenty clear, so no worries on that.

As for the sound effects, I like them mostly. Some of the timing of them could be better, as some happened a bit later than the action my brain tried to attach them to. I also think some additional movements such as a slight back and forth rock for example during the walking portion could make them feel more like they are part of the same thing.

The animations, I'd have to say is where there is the most improvement to be made. Either by bouncing each character to the audio of their lines, of just something to attach them to the voices better.

When the town is attacked, I also don't think voices should be coming from the left and the right, but instead maybe try to make the voices sound a bit farther away and have the lines coming from the town itself.

As for pacing, it was ok. There's definitely some dead air that I would cut in between some lines just to make the conversation feel more natural.

I will say

#

Is the town not to the left?

#

That is where the pumpkin party walk to no?

#

No the dude waled left for the papers

#

And the party went right? But thats where they came from?

#

Could they go down the road like the pumpkin did?

#

I do agree with milli for them bouncing

@keen moon Thanks for the great suggestions as well, alas I won't be able to add the movement/shakes to this video. But it'll help for the next!
