Jeremie Rosner:

some great poses
I liked the "cut our deal Now"
good job

Michel Giguère:

Good camera and layout, some parts of the animation are stronger than others, the pose with the crossed arms does not look real, but I really like your timing when the other guy stands up.

Ken Rice:

Good effort - however feels a little over acted (unnatural) in places.

Jean-Luc Delhougne:

Nice ideas here. Timing is cool and poses not bad. It lacks a bit of subtleties though...And the lipsynch could be more precise ;) Overall it works great !

Ryan Lowe:

if your going to run a CU on one of the characters. make sure the animation is sharp!

Taber Dunipace:

No facial expressions. Poses need more careful attention to detail. Try to pose your characters a bit more naturally; film yourself for reference.

Virgil Tanasa:

the lipsync isn't really working. also, some stronger poses would look better, watch out for the twinning of the last actions, he does the same gesture twice(up-down, up-down)

Erik Westlund:

Second shot with character animated into and out of the camera is a little much. He looks to be proud of being an accessory of 'espionage and murder'. Fist swing gesture on "...cut a deal" is awkward. Movements are all very simple and each seems to swing form joint like a hinge. Mouth and facial animation is very basic. Jaws flap with only a little shape change to match speech. Timing of lip-sync is off. Screen left character appears frozen from the ribs down.

Zainab Siddiqui:

Lip-synch could have been better

David Andrade:

Motion originates from the hips. Focus on that

Victor Wong:

Lip sync seems a little off towards the end, possibly due to choice of mouth shape. Good gesturing.

Russell:

This could have been done without camera cuts.

The lip sync isn't working. Spend more time on the timing of the jaw opening and closing.

James O'Neill:

There is some good overlap, but the poses seem a bit weak. I would use more gestural poses incorporating more of the body controls than just the arms and head. The camera cuts are a bit distracting.

sharad kumar:

when he says 'we've got bupkis' u can move the pelvis a bit abd show some weight shifting..!

Nanda van Dijk:

you should take a closer look at your libsinq, and maybe try to act your scene, some of your poses are a bit unnatural. but its a great stard. keep it up!!!

Ezra Allen:

nice animation, not too sure about the poses. the arms crossed like a cadaver thing is not a natural pose, have a look at how people actually cross theyre arms. Folded arms is something I tend to avoid because its a cutthrough nightmare you need to set up your rig specialy to pull it off or be prepared to key every frame.

I really like the bit where he stands up on "now" nicely done, but on "while we can still cut a deal" the fist gesture on the left arm seems an odd choice. Maybe thumping the desk would have worked better.

sean connolly:

some good performances. something that caught my eye is how all the beats have a very similar timing. you might want to mix subtler beats and slower beats with the quick big ones. and offset things so not everything happens at once.

Christopher Salamat:

Need a lot of work on the lip sync. With the volume turned off it almost seems like they're not saying anything understandable almost like a puppet. Concentrate on make the correct mouth shapes more the sound. Look in a mirror and say the dialog while your animating

Chelsea Hiatt Farley:

Pose on "now that we're accessories..." doesn't work for me - feels like he's proud instead of nervous.
