Can't really help you there, Rade. Although on my latest Flash I put the bottom jaw on a different layer...

Anyway, here's something I've done recently.
Mist
Not finished obviously. And it's out of sync with the music....

Subconsciously inspired by the YuYu.

Anything would help :)

Great piece of music for the mood of the setting, Brakken.

Focus on the pace of your animation. Bump up your frame rate or reduce the amount of frames in between keys. There were several places that required patient waiting on the viewer's part just to see how very simple actions played out.

It's best if you work this sort of thing out while you storyboard, before everything is painted. This makes the process of tweaking and fine-tuning your movements faster and less cumbersome.

Thanks guys.

ak, are you saying to make the pace faster? :o In my opinion it's too fast!

Does anyone have a few hints on how to build suspense on what he's running from? Because he's running for half the movie before you see the actual pursuer :yfok:

I'm an idiot. :(

For some reason my browser played the movie at only a fraction of the speed yesterday--- I thought it was slow because the music was playing as normal. :/

I think not showing the pursuer for the first few scenes builds a healthy amount of anticipation. You could even include subjective shots from Bitey looking over his shoulder as he runs. How does the sequence play out? what happens in the end and when the pursuer materializes?

OK, this is my FIRST ever game. Yes...it's a dress up... :(
I only have a few trousers and shirts and I really would love some ideas on clothes. All my ideas for clothes suck. I'll get them down eventually but accessories would be a lovely thing to tell me.
Sorry for sounding whiney :P but basically I am just trying to say CC is nice and Some ideas for the EXTRAS would be lovely ;)

EDIT: http://www.zshare.net/flash/438232982f85d3/ There is music and almost all the items are added except from a few tops and all the extras. Like I said, any ideas for extras i.e. swords or some stupid crap please let me know.

It's not Bitey :P It just happens that the two characters sillhouettes a very alike. This is actually a character I made up years ago. His name is Rewken.

And as for what happens, you wait and see. I'm about halfway through now!

EDIT: Here's a bit more of it:
Mist



StickyWicky, how about some bling-bling? :P

I've pretty much finished it, but can't find the thread for it on NG so have no idea what's going on. If all fails I'll just extend it and stick it as a single piece on NG.

Also, Jonce, that's awesome! :lol:

First thing's first. Add more than 3 things to your sinc. At the moment you only have 3 basic sounds, which appear to be the wide opened mouth state which is (I think) eees, whys and wees. Possibly some of the main vowels.

I'm sure there are some good tutorials on NG about lip syncing.

Good Luck. :)
