Joseph Leung:

The third line should have had stronger acting to it.

Jean-Luc Delhougne:

Yeaaah.. Not bad !
Some nice subtle moves in the acting here ;)
Maybe a bit more overlapping and a bit more work on facial expressions would make it excellent ;)

Ken Rice:

Pretty good animation - would have liked to have seen the phone being snatched with more of a snap. Watch some of your silhouettes, there are character overlaps.

Virgil Tanasa:

a bit linear, you could maybe try work out a little more the final gesture, it seems slow, and has no energy. smashing the phone would have an effect on everything around, maybe the camera too. and purple guy reaction should be more exaggerate.

Ryan Lowe:

timing needs work.

lizzie:

some very nice poses in there.
love the slaming down of the phone at the end.

James O'Neill:

I like some of the movements. There is good overlap is parts, and good poses. There are some that don't read as well, in the later half. Also, I want to see more weight with the telephone bell as the character grabs it from the other and slams it down. More anticipation would help.

Traci Plagmann:

Nice staging.

Russell:

Loosen up the shoulders and back of both characters. They seem stiff. Nice job!

Erik Westlund:

Nice mood in the room. I like the move to snatch the phone from seated character, but slamming it down seems forced... he has already taken control. The audio sounds angry at the end, but you have the standing character looking scared on the last pose.

Adrian Baluta:

I see alot of acting to jumped,the distance between to keys are to big and is like someone hiting something.

Lisa Taylor:

Nice use of the phone. Your animation is looking really natural too, well done!

Romain Digonnet:

Good animation.
Not very "creative", but it works.

Nolan:

I think the acting is great. At 156 it looks like the back characters arm goes through the front character. Also I think you could really sell the phone slide, make it a bit heavier. Really nice work.

Jack Vandenbroele:

Excellent intentions! You can really follow the characters' emotions as they come. Needs a bit more attention on arcs and polishing, I think...

Brian Boswell:

Nice acting, but the prop interaction needs aural cues to make this really work. The glance at the hand seemed awkward and unmotivated.

jonathan fontaine:

that's good..
you should have polish the way he's put the phone down
