Daniel Huertas:
i think you need better staging..
NICK D:
I love the look he gives at the end, great response to what she says
Jason Smith:
Nice work on the facial expressions.
Mike York:
I like that you changed your staging a little bit. I think it might be a nice touch to cut back to the grandma for her dialog and then show his reaction.
Ken Rice:
Good attempt but staging is a little awkward.
Tim Nowak:
I had to take a look at this a couple times. The innocent guy isnt so innocent when he get cought with the same cake she gave him last year. This animation shows a lot of emotion to the guy. He really wants to get out of there.
Emmanuel:
Hmm I like the expressions on the other character, but we also need the expression on Mrs. Munchnik. Maybe a simple camera move on the other side will work.
Emmanuel Vergne:
why putting the cake off screen ?
On the guy poses try to add some movement in the shoulders, they are very stiff.
The fact that he tries to escape (right after he says "yes") didn't appera clearly to me the first time i saw the shot
Chris Sacco:
I think that there needs to be cuts to the woman so that she can act, especially since she her dialogue is the important part. The acting of the man is good though! Try to extend that into the female as well.
Frank G:
Nice choice of shot. The perspective makes her dominate him in a meaningful way.
Erik Westlund:
Staging, over the shoulder shot is a little awkward. Perhaps she could turn to at least profile after receiving the gift. Male character could easily sell as sniveling/suck-up with a little more subtlety in acting. Emphasis on "yesss... " has nice accent but his gesture is hidden inside of silhouette (again, staging). Taking off about to run (too much) isn't working but painful pause before final reaction is working (subtle).
Sunny Kharbanda:
Watch the character's hips.. he tends to get floaty at times. I'm not sure what's making him turn to screen left when she starts speaking.
Taber Dunipace:
Interesting but I'm not really sure what I'm seeing here.
Mariya Kalachova:
Love that last bit where he almost gets away!!
sharad kumar:
You should not have hidden the lady's face!
Jules Nerestant:
Great animation although his take before her realization didnt read well for me the first time arond.
Mat Brady:
Very funny. Great expressions.
Paulo Clayton:
I like the concept, esp. him starting to walk away, but the actions leading up to it were kind of confusing, took a second to realize he went to walk away. The camera angle is a little awkward to me, I feel like I have to duck to view it. Nice effort, though!
jonathan topf:
a lost of people seem to be doing the same thing as you, the fruit cake giver reacts before she says her last line, its like he is predicting the future
Marco Roberts:
im not sure what happens at frame 170? It looks like hes been distracted by someone. Nice job though
Rajesh Gupta:
In the last dialogue of woman the man try to hide his face before hearing the voice. I think the action should be taken during the last dialogue.
Ambuj:
Diff concept!!
Imus zai:
try to get him to actualy turn his body and then look back before she say's 'remarkably......'
Mike B:
great acting
Adam Clark:
the women is not in the scene, camera angles are rarely set up with the characters back to the camera when they are speaking
Matt Hirengen:
The staging leaves something to be desired, and some of the poses don't read as well as they should. Great facial expressions on the guy.
Aaron Clement:
The ending was good... although a little too delayed. If we could see the woman's reaction, I think it would have been stronger... Needs more work with the body mechanics... The status transaction was good.
Ben Hammersley:
I like this one, you can tell what the male is thinking most of the time, i enjoyed it.
