Roommates: Pilot Episode
The pilot episode for my new series, ROOMMATES!
*Unofficial Review*
This film was nothing more than clips from a video game followed by a mediocre attempt at another dynamic duo. No offence to the director, but another sitcom about two friends... Come on! Still, I did like the sound quality, and the sets were pretty nice. I even smiled at a part during the film, but given the technical aspects, I didn't smile much.
Overall: 4
Story: 3
Animation: 4
Cinematography: 4
Sound: 6

You'll understand the whole video game concept after you watch the next few episodes. In addition, I don't see why you liked the sound quality yet gave it a 6 and gave the animation a 4. The story wasn't too developed because after it is a PILOT episode. It's just to introduce a few characters and give some background. I understand that you have your opinions but they differ GREATLY from what others said. In addition, I don't understand why you said "we". I know that you must make your animations with another person but are they really present with you whenever you post something online?
Overall I thought this was a good solid film. My only complaint is that you maybe could have gotten another voice actor for the new roommate.

Yeah I was thinking of doing that but then I'd somehow try to make it so that mine is better. I don't know. This way, I get the best of both worlds and i don't have to worry about whether the guy might want to quit or not. Thanks for the positive feed back!

The sound design was good, but not great. We liked it, not loved it. A 6 was a reasonable judgement in our opinion. And with the story, it doesn't matter if it is a pilot episode or not. Many (if not all) real life sitcom pilots still have a basic plot that is developed throughout the episode. Yours was almost one big exposition. Now don't get me wrong, a pilot is mainly an exposition, but it still needs plot developement. I said "we" in case any other member of "JP" decided to respond. And by the way, JP is made up of 3 people, but that doesn't really matter I guess...

Thanks for the feedback
Sorry, didn't mean to come across as rude. I did like the film to a certain extent, and I am definitely not saying that I could do better.
