Mike York:

I like your idea and interpretation on the audio. Its almost there...

Taber Dunipace:

This is pretty clear, I know what's going on, but we need some emphasis somewhere like on the hitting of the hand.

Greg M. Johnson:

Interesting setting.

Adam Clark:

the kid has some really awkward movements, way too exaggerated

Christopher Salamat:

Great idea. I dunno what, but it still seems a bit stale

Tim Nowak:

This was alright . were did the laughter come from??

James Parsons:

Didnt quite get the concept. The hand slap near the end worked well. Could have been a bit snappier in places and the female character seems to stop moving towards the end, which distracts a little.

Sunny Kharbanda:

Watch your staging.. the characters' mouths are often not seen properly when they're talking. Their faces also often go into profile or even further away from us.

Erik Westlund:

Ok. A good gag. Nice setup by using 'star trek' theme. Random tapping on keyboard to enter coordinates is fun, improved on by the slap to keep the "captain" off of the controls. Poses for the generi characters are not anywhere as interesting or resolved as the 'jerk/incompetent' captain. Perhaps you are more familiar with on rig but not the other.

Israel Woolfolk:

need facial expressions. At least some blinks would help

Vaggelis Gavalakis:

It should be better to concetrate on the animation rather than background, though background makes things look cooler..

Derek Mabson:

That cut in the beginning is very juttering. You don't need it. Otherwise nice animation

Max Rodriguez:

The slap away idea is funny, but needs some work in the execution. She should anticipate the motion.

James Stevenson:

nice staging, like the idea, and the fact that 'phil' looks a little grumpy.

Brad Regier:

I like Phil's reaction, talking to him without looking at him.
Awkward cuts.
The last angle would've been ok for the whole thing.

Aaron Clement:

Has potential... I didn't like some of the acting descitions... the back and forth at the start was a little jarring.

Rebecca D.:

Beautiful characters, emotion and lip synching here. Very good storytelling here too.

Ron Price:

Watch your silhouettes! The point he does at the very beginning gets lost against his body...
