not clear what the idea is. unecessary movement on the first guy.
kemal kemal:
The girls animation is nice, subtle and natural.
Dian Anggraini:
The guy in white is so funny, interesting =D
But somehow I don't understand what is he doing. When I first saw that I thought he's going to breakdance/moonwalk.
It would help if the second guy look at the first guy (only the pupil would be enough) when he's talking (so it doesn't seem like he ignored him at all)
Fingers could have more details, like in 1, right hand should properly grip the hoe; or in 120, spreading them a bit would feel more natural.
Willem-Jan L. van Rootselaar:
make it bette readable. Don't move everything at the same time. Move only the parts that has to tell something.
Jarrod Anderson:
My only real critique is that the animation seems very floaty - You might want to try sharpening up the timing and movement of the arms of the white-shirted-character in particular. Remember, the shoulders lead the movement, followed by the elbow then the wrists.
Just for editing's sake, you've "crossed the line" I think too. At the start of the scene, you've got Whitey on the left, and StrutGuy on the right - when we cut at 164, they appear to swap places. It can throw the audience right off, and disconnects them from the peice. Try framing it differently and see if it looks any better. Great work!
Nate Lane:
Cool man looks great! I really love the whole layout of the scene. something that I think you could work a bit on is the hands, especially of the big guy around frames 200 to 230. That whole action of them flipping over just doesn't seem as natural as they could be. Anyways, keep it up! Really nice work man.
Eric Huelin:
Spelling guy got strange moves red guy too.
Caryn:
Need to rethink your acting choices. Record yourself acting it out. Get a few friends to join in.
Also, not clear what the character on the left is standing on. (Frame 110 - end) Seems that his foot is floating with the light coming underneath it and no connecting shadow.
Mayank:
Nicee work..u need to work on weight shift..
Ashwani:
nice
Adam Giangregorio:
Be very very careful not to break the 180 degree rule. It makes for confusing cuts, even if its only between 2 or 3 characters.
Mike Courtney:
the character interactions could be improved
Angelo Sta. Catalina:
she jsut comes up and corrects the guy.. seemed kinda awkward
James Fearn-Wannan:
I think the guy in white moves a little too much.. and the guy in red doesn't move quite enough. I liked the girl's expression at the end, though.
Juan Carlos Valdez:
you hvae a common mistake that many animators make... do not have the character constantly moving! doing this makes the character look like a marionette. Find a good pose, use slight movements until the action is needed.
Ryan Lowe:
It's so easy to spot a mo-cap walk when the rest of the animation is too stepped.
SamoRa G:
i like her expression at the end LOL
Juan Calderon:
try to work a little bit more on your character facial animation , remember how vowel sounds will help you deliver sounds and head tilts
as with all your animation, some of the advice I would give is always develop you characters give them a back ground and develop their characteristic that should be model sheet you also might want to create a simple model sheet about his posture and his actions of movement. once you have established that you can be gin to create thumbnails and develop a story behind the lip sync and try to keep you character in line with what you want to project as you develop the thumb nails always keep in mind on creating Key poses and extreme poses that you can later on use for developing bigger sketches. then these sketches can be used to pose your character on the computer and that will help you start blocking your character. it's a lot of work but it helps to plan you scene and performance on paper before you go on to the computer
Janarthanan:
