Nice! Very simple, but very effective in getting the emotions across.
Forrest:
great character and subtle animation. i'd love to see it a bit more complex however.
Matt Hirengen:
really good job! the last expression's a bit ambiguous, but solid overall.
Jeremy Schichtel:
nice thought process
Sunny Kharbanda:
Simple and effective! Good work. Timing could use a few tweaks, but overall it's enjoyable.
colus havenga:

Daniel Morgan Walsh:
I don't know what it is but the 2D entries are consistently Kicking butt, and this is no exception. Great job seriously.
alan:
love 2d work. the mouth shapes are simple but they well here. overall, good work and i would like to see more
Erik Griott:
this turned out really well! i was following you,re progress via the forums and was feeling a little concerned with you're hand drawings, but i'm very glad with the way this turned out. i know that the rough stages are hard to tell what is going on in your head, and i'm happy you showed me better :p
Joey Gates:
So simple, yet very precise in how you addressed the acting. Limited use of the hands but focused on the face. I find this acting believable. Congrats. =)
Daniel Erwin:
great performance... i love the style of the animation, it reminds me of "Family Guy", but better.
Ronny:
nice dude very good looks family guysh or probably groening's you know, add a little but more of concept and you are there
Barnabas Boehler:
Super Cool!
I would like to see a little more of his hands...but otherwise a great piece of animation
Noah:
I really like the style you've got going here, and it really shines through the first 100 frames. My only critism is that its kind of hard to tell where the person is that he's talking to. He spends so much time internally, looking down or with his eyes closed, that we have no sense of where the other person is. And on the poses where he seems to be looking at the person, you're not consistent with the eye direction (frame 258 he's looking down, 282 he's looking up, 184 he's mostly horizontal, 202 he's slightly up...)
Carlos Fins:
Simple and very effective. I love how he goes from being slouchy/acknowledging his own fault to standing up straighter/showing pride. Great work!
Antonio Linhares:
I liked it very much! I think your chose well for economic acting and clear facial expressions and accents.
Frank G:
Good example of limited animation style. The finish and how the father feels about his son is clearly communicated. Probably was looking for a bit more subtle 'shape of action' changes to help convey the emotion in the first half. Worth more stars than a general.
James Fearn-Wannan:
I think you've really caught the essence of that character in this. Great!
