Isaac Hingley:

I really like what you have here. It would be nice to see the body move through force though. Right now a lot of the movement happens separately in individual body parts. a good example would be on "consider" the head and arm make a broad movement but It doesn't affect the body at all.

Justin Weg:

I like this a lot. Nice to see some 2D. Would love to see more!

Christiaan Moleman:

I like it. Nice style and design, but you should try and move the body more as a whole. Let one part affect the other.

Aaron Clement:

Hehe, nice. I like the ending, that's very imaginitive... kept you guessing right up to the end. Maybe the only crit would be the dead pan holds... maybe a little more movement, there... but I like this one.

Jeranimo:

Haha! Loved it. The main problem i see is, some of the parts of the cat's body moves and some of the part doesn't move at all. It looks kinda disconnected. Remember that the body is a one single unit and you cannot move things separately. Otherwise its a good work! Keep it up. :)

Damodar V Sawant:

wow ! after long time I have seen some 2D animation .....good effort

Roshan.k:

beautiful!

Taber Dunipace:

This is a much better piece than most. I understand the acting choices and the animation supports those choices. The only big thing that bothers me is that the animation is distracting and unorganized to me. The cat says "wait" and grabs the paper, and then talks momentarily to no one while he flourishes the paper. Then again, he gestures to the right at "stop for a moment", and appears to gesture to no one. After that he returns to the mouse, and finally to the audience at the end.

This piece is very good, but those few oddities keep me from giving this a higher score.

Erik Griott:

beautiful! very nice movement and overlap, good timing, and funny too!

Henk Kok:

Strong posing, Very fun animation
great use of anticipation and stylisation to ease the workload.

Scott Farrell:

awesome stuff. Timing wise it would work better if the mouse got lifted up just as he was finishing his line, it would feel more spontaneous, Dont know if you need that head rotate at the end. Great job!

Carlos Fins:

Clever animation! I like the use of the cat's claw to open the envelope. There are a couple of issues I noticed in the head movement during ethical implications. Feels very unattached. But the posing looks good and the facial expressions are reading. Lip synch felt off to me though. Good work!

miles southan:

Great work! Might be nice to have some of that head action supported by the body though. Really good job otherwise though!

Gregory Marlow:

NICE. The "ethical implications pose is a little odd but otherwise very strong

Danny Garnett:

I love it! beautiful arcs. i'm not sure about the pose where he says ethical though, it's sort of odd. Otherwise everything is amazing :D

Steve Sloan:

haha, i love it. 2d animation is so refreshing. on frame 100 the paper dosn't seem to be balanced, but im guessing that mouse isn't too heavy. I would have liked it to be a little smoother though, is it already on 2's?

Ryan Hagen:

Nice work, the cat's body felt really ridged at times, but you can get away with that a bit more in 2d, this stuck out to me though. Great little piece though.

Adriel Restrepo:

Wow! Very nice drawings and poses! I really like how you made the mouse swinging around holding on the papper. Great work with the acting too. Keep up the great work!

Jett Atwood:

Oh we loves some good 2D animation...and this reads really well and is a lot of fun to watch. Great job!
Watch your volumes and model sheet though...his chest grows and his ears seem to shrink. :)

Yeray Díaz Díaz:

Nice job! Really nice characters and idea. Maybe there's a lack of movement in the torso of the cat on some places but still a great 2D job.

ArunVijayan:

nice work....

Virgil Mihailescu:

very cool looking poses! I like the drawings... but not so much the acting (except for the mouse, I think his acting, on that short line, was more expressive and more logical). the animation is also ruff - hard to compare with.... let's say, more detailed, polished 3D animation. but comparing on the appeal side, your animation would score very high :D

Chris:

Great to see some 2D animation in with the bunch! Overall, it felt a little too stop&go with different body parts feeling like they were switched on and off.

Leon Gittens:

really fun animation, enjoyed watching this one, great idea

Ryan King:

That is cool. It has a very chucks jones style too it. although I think some of the cats head movements may have been too much while the body was on hold. I understand that moving the body would take more time, but at points his head seemed detached the way it rolled. Really cool though.

P Walters:

Wow. needs in-betweening but damn... nice!

Mike Courtney:

Poses were good, but the lip-sync on both characters needed work. The paper shows the good work put into it.

Chad Hannah:

wow, really clean. When you get the twean this it will look amazing

C. J. Cow:

i like the drawings alot. great effort dude :)

Salvador García Luque:

Reaaly cool idea, but I think the animation is a little bit stuck.

Jarred de Beer:

Lovely! There were 3 other people around the computer with dropped jaws after watching this one. We were very inspired!

Matthew P. Johnson:

Looks good, i believe with a few more inbetweens on some of the cat's movements this will come across even better.

Joaquin Bello:

great work !!

Gabe Dill:

happy to see a 2d work this month... nice stuff with the ears and the paper... oh, and i love the cats right hand during "ethical implications" that just makes that whole pose.

Brian Duffy:

great great work, would love to see it inbetweened

Rich Lauzon:

It is cruel and unusual punishmentto have to vote and comment on your own work. This need a ton of work. See comments above and below this one. LOL!!

gerardo:

I really like to see 2D animation here.. but I found you could do better. The acting is not too clear, I don’t like the hand pose when he said "... the ethical implic..."

Victor Wong:

Good character design for 2-D. Acting is pretty wild during the monologue, but the snip at the end is handled very well.

Dave H Shovlin:

Beautiful work. The secondary action of the mouse is excellent but I might make the letter a bit stiffer. Keep it up.

Missy Feaster:

Clever all-around. Needs some refinement on timing, but very creative.

Chris Smith:

This is an awesome traditional-style animation, which we don't see too much on this site.
Probably a little too much "swing" in the paper when the mouse is being chucked around, though. With that much swing, he should have fallen off long before the animation finishes...
Also, not enough use of "moving holds". The cat's movements finish too rigidly, when they should ease out at the end, which it puts me off a bit.
Otherwise, 100 points for originality, and the overall animation is quite good.

Piotr Krysik:

Great to see some traditional animation! :) A good one too.

Christopher Lutz:

Nice! I have great respect for hand drawn 2d animation. Nice secondary motion.

Ryan Glovka:

Really neat to see some 2D!! Nice poses,...seems a little busy in spots, but very cool!

Alison K. Sanders:

Hey, you have some NICE stuff going on in here, especially with the mouse. Although I had a hard time reading the facial expressions on the cat for parts of it. I think maybe one or 2 less expressions, with the others held longer would give you a better result.

Zach:

Good hand work, needs a few more frames

Matthew Hoesterey:

I love the mouse. The cats end pose and mail cutting is great too. I found a lot of the poses to be hard to read though and the cats emotions seamed muddled. I think the muddled feel was caused by so many extream poses being used in such a short time. It made the piece a bit hard to follow. But great still overall.

Max Herzfeld:

The pairing of the cut sound and the claw was pretty cool.
While the Cat is reading the letter the paper hangs out in space at a quite odd angle. Keep a material constant.
Great job.
