Corey McDaniel:
very nice acting
Matt Hirengen:
good job. good staging, acting, and posing. the lipsynch could use a little love though.
Jeff Kim:
very sincere and natural, except for the "then...maybe" part. The best part is "and once you acknowledge that." It seemed natural and easy.
Nice job!
Barnabas Boehler:
Great job! Looks like it just needs some more polish and it will be really nice
Paul Wei:
Nice motion and poses. The lip sync starts lagging behind the audio towards the end.
Srujith kumar Ogirala:
concept is ok but you need to work on animation
Daniel Erwin:
i like the subtleties... less is more... the eye brow animation needs work
Florent Perrin:
Very natural and sober acting, I loved that
Raasi N:
Like the emotion on father's face.Some lip flicker is going on at .." than I have ever been at ..."....overall nice job.
rajeshk:
is he talking to the somebody.. i mean the guy which cuts the corner in the frame dosn't move or breaths..
fathers animation is oky..
Nary:
really nice acting
Martin Silfvast:
nice effort
Alex Davies:
this is really nice, good job! The one thing I did notice though was the silouette of the character when he rests one hand on top of the other! You loose site of his arms, maybe try bringing his elbows out just so you see some space between his arms and torso! Hope that helps:)
Paul Fuller:
I think the foreground character is good staging wise but he needs a little movement. Other than that, I think the animation is looking pretty good.
Adam Green:
This is nice and subtle and focused, and true to the dialogue. I like it. I'd say another pass on the lip-synch to soften up some of the sharp spacing would do it some good, and maybe on some of the head movements as well. Nice work though!
Kevin Gittens:
The foreground person should move enough to seem somewhat alive, because it looks like an inanimate object.
Brad Bradbury:
wow. very nice subtle work.
Matthew:
You could have put a stronger pose on "he has a gift". It doesn't feel like he's thinking as strongly as he's talking.
Brad Regier:
gift was a good moment
pretty good acting
Chad Swanson:
I liked the acting choices way to stay away from the cliche stuff. Could use a little action in the guy he was talking to just to bring it to life a bit more. Good job!
Ashwani:
good
picasso:
The character selection is excellent...animation has got feelings...good....only that i expected the right hand to take the lead...followed by the left one..
