We don't get to see him fall!? AWW!
Ken Rice:
Fun animation - would have been nice to see the woman walk differently to the man though.
Julianne McCartney:
I wanted to see him fall!
jonathan fontaine:
yeah !
lol you made me laugh.. i like the hand of the girl at the very end.. that's soo "perfide"...^^
Jon Graef:
I think if you are going to end it with him falling go ahead and finish the gag.
Elliott Gibson II:
nice walk cycles going but you could use some more expressions...nice job to start though!
Joe Mitchell:
shoulda had him drop all the way nice job
Victor Wong:
Very nice storytelling.
Eric Scheur:
You've got a lot of very nice stuff here! I especially love Phil's eyes when he says "Mine, too." Wonderful expression!
Walks are tough, and you are handling three at once--doing pretty well with each of them, too! However, I feel like all three of your characters could have a bit more rotation going on in their hips to make sure it doesn't look like they are marching mechanically. Look at some reference of people walking, and notice how the hips rotates forward on the side of the leg that's moving forward as well. This hip movement can really help add in a nice sense of the body working as a unit.
Besides that, Mr. Blindfold's gestures all seem to be pretty twinny until the last one--a twinned pose every once in a while can be okay, but be careful there aren't too many. See if you can find ways to break up the pose here and there to make it more interesting.
Good work this round! I look forward to seeing more!
HARISH:
good one. the ending was unexpected.some other things i felt could be improved on
!) i felt that the blind character goin down the pithole u can make him fall about 6-8 frames earlier.
!!)The females arms jerk while swinging.
!!!) couls use more weight feel on phil when he kicks the blind guy.
Nice !!! keep it up
shankar:
nice work
Ceno:
great!
I gotta that too!
Juan Z.:
really well done. i liked your idea, as in where you took it.
Jason Smith:
Good anticipation. More emphasizes on the kick maybe a little more exaggeration then the blind guy's reaction to it being jerkier.... Nice work.
Erik Westlund:
The Warner Bros. stay aloft until you realize nothing is beneath you has been done, redone, and overdone. There is no surprise left in that gag. Facial shapes on "Mine too" are too wide on the "m" sound... leaving corners of the mouth nowhere else to go heading into the "i" sound.
Dhiraj:
Really Funny!!
Room for improvement in Animation
Ron Price:
I like the staging and cutting. The facial stuff's pretty good, too! Solid! I want to see something at the end where he's not quite so flat-footed in midair...
Chris:
Camera cuts were jarring and the pats on the back didn't sync up. The posing of the middle character's laugh at the end didn't match the sound too well- it could've been pushed more.
Max Rodriguez:
I'd like to see him fall, or have some anticipation of falling.
James Stevenson:
like the idea, with a little more staging I think this would be better.
jeff:
idea is good but animation not upto the limit...
