JayMoyes's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Businessman Blues 2]

Oh I know that feeling...

I've had times like that. The empty square and "under construction" icon was a nice touch. Loved the gag at the end.

Maybe I need to add some Mario and Sonic art on my web site :-)

[Skull in Connemara]

Top Drawer

Great work with the rotoscoping and scratchboard techniques. It must have driven you up the wall getting all this to gel together.

TheBoogley responds:

yeah, it was a long week with a lot of panic about whether it would work in the end

[Some Velvet Morning]

Great use of the medium

What's even creepier is this song is a cover of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Some Velvet Morning", of all things, a popular country music song, apparently to fit in with the 60's psychedelic movement. So seeing this animation gave me a bit of surreal deja vu.

I love Firewater's cover, and the animation works really well with their rendition. The scratchy feel of the animation goes with the theme music and the textures and angles keep it from looking amateur. Artistically, it's disturbing and creepy in all the right places.
