David Thomson:

I think the framing here is a little off. i dont think i like how his hands go off screen all the time.

Rachel G.:

Nice job on the lipsynching work! The repeated hand movement at the beginning is a little distracting. The hands seem to be acting more than the rest of the body. That said, the final drop of the hands looked really natural.

Martin Silfvast:

Looks like linear blocking. The animation is very stiff and feels linear. Have a look at your breakdowns and their timing, add some overlapping animation might be good for your animation.

Spencer Barber:

He moved very rigidly - like a marionette, but you had some great poses

Kensaba:

Remember Ghandi words: avoid twinning. Keep going

Andrew:

face is too symmetrical. offset his face and body and avoid twinning like the plague

Vinod Kanna. K:

Good effort..... needs a lot of concentration on facial..

Mark Persson:

Good thinking! You have all the basic for body expressions, but you need to with it more. The lipsync and face expression need more work!

Yuriko:

good, but problems with hands. They are too flat. Also try to make you actions smoother by adding overlaps and working on arcs.
Keep animating!

KISHORE:

too much hand actions,first 70 frames are almost symmetrical,why the eye brows in the first few frames are looking dull,for the huge hand gestures the hip and legs should move or at least coordinate with the upper body i think it misses it . over all the animation is nice.

Thomas Dumont:

too static, too symetrical but good effort

rob eddy:

the hands look good. lip sync from 120-145 looks like it's just up and down, maybe loosen the mouth corners a little. brows could use some loosening too throughout

Ashley Stringer:

good work, well done

james:

too much twinning

David Shum:

Feels like his feet is nailed to the ground.
If you want to avoid animating his legs, you should shoot a little bit closer (cut off at around his stomach or chest)

Alonso Soriano:

too much in the hands, and the hands are pretty twinny
loosen up, use the whole body for gestures

Michael Carter:

playblast next time and focus more on animation.

Dane Winn:

not bad, when he points behind, his silhouette is not very clear, also try and move the hips more, they are very static

Erik Lee:

just careful about the twin pose.

Juan Calderon:

good establishing scene. a rule in animation don't point , use the characters performance to direct the audience

Salvador García Luque:

he doesn move below his shoulders, and the gestures aren't too expressive

Fernando Porcel:

Nice work.
A bit rigid arms motion, and looks a bit twined, but you have nice poses. Only a comment : ) Cheers!!
