Mike York:

It looks like you have some nice things going on in here. Just looks like you didn't get to polish it yet. Looking forward to seeing this one finished.

Taber Dunipace:

Really funny concept and some nice blocking for this. Camera work is right on too. You should really keep working on this, it's got a lot of potential!

Jason:

needs to be finished, but the fat character is fantastic! push the poses just a bit more though

Andrew Linke:

Awesome concept and idea. Wish it was completely animated.

tyler:

smooth out your curves and this would be a lot better

James Lane:

its a shame you werent able to finish...i love the poses

Tomas Jech:

Good blocking! Hope you post a finished version at a later date.

Possibly think about a less generic gesture than the "finger point" at the end.

Josh Doohen:

wheres the rest? would love to see lip sync to this!

Victor Wong:

Good poses, good facial expressions.

Ken Rice:

Pretty good animation - little confusion at the start due to lip sync not being finished.

Maureen Seng:

would have loved to see the polished version

Gao:

this looks really good, its a pity we cant get to see it in polished form. Definitely finish it up and post it in the forums!

Luciano A. Muñoz Sessarego:

although it obvious that you did not finish it, the key poses were very accurate !

Jeremy Cantor:

Great start on the blocking.
Would love to see this one finished.

Greg M. Johnson:

For this one, I like everything you tried to do, I just wished you carried it to more completion. It's like we're missing some movement inbetween. I think with more work this one could be a "12".

andyM:

shame it's not finished, shows promise.

maybe next time??

Ricardo Vicens:

Nice scenario for such a hard clip, just needs to be taken into polish.

Christopher Salamat:

Nice shots and poses. Wasn't clear as to who was the main character at first.

Tim Nowak:

I liked how you expressed everyones emothins by facial movement. but is this a sketch?

Yahya:

this would have looked good if the inbetweens was done.

Gianmichele Mariani:

interesting...once completed

Richard Bannister:

If only you'd finished it!!

This blocking looks fantastic. Great idea too! Love the waddling walk!

Ian John White:

good start.

Łukasz Burnet:

it's cool but not finished :(

Erik Westlund:

Nice setup. This is one of the better solutions to the challenge presented in this months audio. Perhaps it solves some posing problems but the left hand handshake isn't working for me. Poses on "Phil, this is the best day of my life." make it a little fuzzy as to who is speaking. It seems like it is the big character, but in terms of story it would make more sense to be spoken by the groom. Good "business" for all three characters. Great surprise and pointing poses on the finish. Nice staging... very readable and helps with focus in shots. Wish this were further along.

Dieter Wagner:

great blocking! this should be really good once it's polished.

Ceno:

common dude u can win!

Helen Cranston:

Real shame that this one is unfinished, I really like the poses and timing you've got so far

Eric Scheur:

You're clearly still in stepped mode here, so I won't comment on the animation as if it were polished. I like what's here--a lot of nice stuff.

It feels, though, like a lot of the poses could be a little more natural--have a bit more flow in them.

On frame 175, for example, the man's arms feel a bit disjointed. Look at how his screen left elbow hangs down there--it forshortens the arm, making the forearm feel like it's very tiny compared with the very long upper arm. Getting this arm a little further up and rotated in a clearer direction would help not only clarify where that arm is in space, but would also provide some nice flow through the shoulders into the other arm--you generally want the arms to flow into each other.

Watch for details like this in your poses, and I think that the smoothing process will go really well and make your animation shine!

Juan Z.:

this has alot of potential. finish it.

sharad kumar:

good poses!!....wish u had completed it..i wud hv given two more stars!

Senthilnathan D:

nice job...

Bob Dole:

this has the potential to be really good if finished

Gustavo Negroni:

I definitely like the gestures, the facial expressions and I think the timing is good. It's unfortunate though that it's still in stepped mode. You should definitely finish this regardless of the competition.

Chris Woods:

The blocked-in performances look really nice, and the camera work is pretty solid. If this had been finished it would have been a strong piece.

Max Rodriguez:

Good start

James Stevenson:

Really good, on the way to being great with a little more time. Competition aside, I think you should see this one through, some great expression in there already. With polish, a nice piece.

Aaron Clement:

This one's got a lot of potential... it's a shame you ran out of time to finish it.

Ron Price:

Great scenario and poses! I'd love to see it finished!
