Hahaha, this was a nice one. I have never heard that prank before, and animation it was a great idea.
The animation was pretty good. Simple, yet well-made. Something I liked a lot were your "visual recreations" on the prank, like the "Grandfather Clock, now with chimey-chimey" thing. The musics you used were... ehh... alright. I also liked the random pictures in the background, they were pretty funny.
However, I couldn't understand some parts of the prank. It would be better if you added subtitles or something like that, it would make things easier to understand.
Overall I thought it was a nice movie with great animated jokes, but if you added subtitles it would make things better.

I enjoed playing this game. It was fun, a little addictive and it had a quiteinteresting concept, which I thought was pretty original. However, the execution of the idea wasn't very well done.
Before anything else, I'd like to point out some things that you could correct in a next version. First, the energy bar isn't displayed on the top right of the screen as you said, but in the top left of the screen. Second, everytime I put the radar over the "Play music" button, the song starts playing, even when it's stopped. And when it's playing, it starts again. and finally, the guns sfx in the menu is too loud, reduce it a little next time.
Despite the mini-glitches listed above, this game wasn't bad. As I already said, I think the idea is quite original and it can turn into something better. The time in some missions was also a good addition, you could put it into more missions. I liked the song you used, I think it matched with the game pretty well. The obstacles made the game more challenging, but if you added more kinds of obstacles then it could have been a better game.
Here are some things that I think that can be improved or added to make this game even better: more kinds of obstacles, more kinds of enemies, a certain number of attempts to find the orbs (you can just click in random places if you want to find the orb) and fixing the glitches.
Overall, it wasn't a bad game, but his could have been better. It has a nice idea, but take your time to improve it.

Wow, this must have taken a lot of time to create, didn't it? As you said, you spent more than one sitting doing it, but how many sittings did you need to finish this? Just out of curiosity.
Well, the movie itself was great, I really liked it. I liked the drawings and its transformations, must have been hard to do them. I found it very creative how you transformed a drawing into another. Also, the sounds were great, both the FX and the music, nice choice.
But you could improve on this. Instead of having all those light changes, you could have use a lamp in a steady place, so the light would be the same the entire movie. And I think you should try using some coloured chalks, to give more attention to the most important parts. I know this would take a lot more time, but it would be worth.
Nice movie. I hope you get a better award next time you submit a movie. Great work, keep up!

Hm. I'd say over the course of two days. , I sat down to work on it 5-6 times.
I varied in lengths. Sometimes I would sit, do something for 30 minutes, get frustrated and move on.
But when I first started I sat at it for 2-3 hours. The rest were in between.
Good question.
The trouble with the lamp (I did try it) was that it created a glare on my chalkboard.
So my chalkboard was half taken up by a huge glare where you couldn't see anything.
In a way I think the light changes make it seem more real, and less generic.
I'm hoping for a solo award some day. So I'm gonna stop cutting myself short when I know the movie can be longer/better.

From what I listened to, it sounded like something big was coming. This could be used in an intro for a Flash movie, no doubt about it.
The intro sounded like a funeral, with a depressive felling on it. However, the "mood" of the song changes drastically at 0:45. It was a well made change.
The rhythm at the faster part was very good. the song was doing fine when it suddenly ended. Well, it's just a demo, anyway. =)
I'd like to know when you're going to release the final project. It sounds great so far, the full version should be even better. Nice job.

I made a bit of progress, but I've stripped it back to the intro because the final song wasn't going to be as good as the demo.
Glad you like it. ^_^

This song is very good. It gets better as it goes on, there's a major change from the intro to the ending, I liked that.
The first 30 seconds were pretty random, like a jam session. You could have reduced it, I didn't like that intro a lot. But after the drums enter, the songs changes completely.
What impressed me the most here was the guitar. You made a great solo in the middle of the song, it was very relaxing and easy to listen, very well done.
Great song, very relaxing, but I suggest you changing that intro a bit.

Wow, what the hell was he saying? It was pretty weird, specially with music on the background and all those "things" he was saying. It sounds like he wasn't very happy!
Anyway, as for the song, it wasn't very good. First, the music itself was too low, you gave too much priority to the speech, leaving the song on the background. What you could do is put parts of the speech during the song, making the song louder while he wasn't speaking. This would sound great.
And from what I could hear from the song, it was very repetitive. You could have created your own song instead of using someone else's song.
Not a bad... uhhh... speech, but it can be a lot better if you make the song louder, leaving the speech on the background.
