I like ur animation a lot..But at"my son has a gift" the swaying hand is bothering me..though its perfectly done....does it serving the purpose of the acting???
all over ur animation is suttle..n very natural...
Matt Hirengen:
Nice job! lots of great overlapping action and anticipation.
Carlos Chavez:
nice polish...i think the cut should be sooner. Also the yellow man looks a bit static at the end.
good work anyway
Amdbcg:
stiffens up at 350 , good concept though :) - I like the mime :)
Tim Roberts:
nice dramatic pauses in the beginning and the end.
Paul Fuller:
Nice work. I think that the arm swinging when he first turns around is a little excessive, it looks like he has no bones. Also, when he steps and leans forward and points, it is a little late in comparison to the dialogue.
Erik Griott:
i like the fathers performance, but the rest of it is a little disconnected. the mime is two far away after the cut that we can't really enjoy his performance, the judge doesn't do anything....at all...(and i know that's because of the rig...i used the same one >.<), but he is also stages way too far out of frame.
Chris Sullivan:
nice
Kevin Scott:
arm was a little "swingee" on "my son has a gift..." good job over all tho!
Daniel Erwin:
HA!!
great capture of arrogance. (270 to the end)
i think you could of played on it more at the beginning of his dialogue performance... cause it reads tooo subtly and too serious...
John Seldon:
thats really nice,one thing i would say is that the way he holds his foot pointing up on "then maybe" seems a bit unnatrual holding it up for so long
Kayum:
I really like the initial set-up with the son and the final shot of the judge, both work really well. Between frames 60 and 177 it's impossible to read the dad's emotions due to the almost complete concealing of his face. It would have been nice to have him turned more towards the camera.
Martin Silfvast:
NIce!
Mark Homoky:
That's one startled judge! Superb effort with lots of expressive comic moments.
Great use of weight balance around F242 as the father shifts his position.
A well deserved score - good luck!
Barnabas Boehler:
Really nice work here. I love the reaction of the judge..but I think you could have his head move just a tiny bit more...and give him a little life in his body (just a little bit, because I like the subtle shock he's in right now)
I think the father needs a more interesting starting pose. Either break it up and offset the arms, or have him facing us or in a more 3/4 view. He looks a little stiff and the pose would be more appealing if he was already partially facing us.
When he says "My son has a gift" the arm might have a bit too much overlap
Love the gesture on Maybe
Ronny:
man I love your body language at the end
Ryan Chan:
Great job. I think the arm swing from when he takes his hand off the stage can be a little more subtle. Seems like it's swinging too much. Also, it looks like it might be in IK. Switching to FK will probably give you a better connected feel and a more fluid swing.
Ryan Shannon:
good. maybe a little to much mirroring and "classic" poses. but the idea is good, and the animation is also good.
G. Smith:
Even though we understand he's talking to someone in the corner, the judge's head should have at least moved a little bit because nothing in real life is perfectly still..very good animation though
Ashwani:
good
James Fearn-Wannan:
I like yr poses and arcs and such. Very strong.
