Brent Steinberg:

its good, but i think you're pantamiming too much. the business with the finger in the beginning was a nice touch, but does he really need to put his arms to the floor when he says "short", or on his belly for "fat". it's too literal.

Frank Collazo:

funny movement in the legs in the air

Renaud Déchaux:

Your animation is good, but unfortunatly, your poses are not original.

Louis Ng:

Can sergio really jump that high since he is so fat? But this is pretty decent, great work.

Johnny Castuciano:

I liked the acting choices

Charles Eubanks:

You have some really good interaction between the characters here, and you did a great job making the secondary character move without distracting from the main performance.

Matt Johnson:

Nice. Love the secondary action in this. The finger twiddling and then the legs running in air was a nice touch! Keep it up!

Paulo Clayton:

I love the point and expression on "look at me." Nicely done overall.

Mike Courtney:

the tall man is reacting too early to the shorter one to be believable. The shorter man should take a step towards him, then the taller man should step back. Right now it's almost a dance.

Dan Dulberger:

I really find it hard to believe he would be so aggresive as to walk and almost press himself up to whoever hes talking to.

Jason Fugh:

8 stars: nice gestures

Aaron Clement:

It's good how they don't move a lot... and that you had them acting in pose... just thought the blue guy could have moved a little more... even just shifting his weight from one side to the other.

Dave:

mouth shapes are nice. the shadow on the secondary character hides his face and makes him unreadable and they are staged very screen left heavy. Make use of your whole camera space. Great work

Taber Dunipace:

A fair piece but kind of boring. No real emphasis given to any part of it except the last shriek. Feels pretty stiff too. Study the principals.

Spencer Jones:

Wicked, liked it. So glad i don't feel obliged to write a long spew of made up crit for it

Timothy Doolen:

The character interaction is great and the lip sync looks very good, nicely done!

Renn:

Some other clips I've seen have used snappy animation to poor effect, but in this case, it works fantastically.

Choice of actors is great as well! Secondary motions and idle animations is exceptionally well done!

Extra stars for good choice of models!
