I like the set up, it makes me smile. The actions are fluid and complete and that gets you much points ^^
And that camera movement though subtle was a very nice touch.

Although I think the "in the mirror" shot goes by too quickly and the expressions were difficult to read. And the reasoning for the yell at the end is a little confusing. He yells off into the distance and looks down. I suspect because he didn't want the guy to hear him but somehow he doesn't seem bothered that he's there. That's a little confusing to me.

jinu:

a good setup, but needs more feeling into it.

Joseph Lewis:

really like the camera chioices and the overall fluidity of the piece... cool

Johnny Castuciano:

I liked the other guy

Charles Eubanks:

This is really good! the setting and camera animation definitely make your scene feel cinematic. You can strengthen your lip sync by reaching the extremes at the right time -- for example, in "look at me," the widest mouth pose should hit on the word "me," but I don't quite see that here, which gives him a slight sock-puppet look. But overall, this is a really good piece!

Bing Chen:

Nice Work ! Perhaps the motion could be a little snapper when he say "fat"?

Caleb Drewel:

good start, but then it falls off

Aaron Clement:

Good ending... but maybe could have exaggerated even more. The action on 'Fat' didn't work for me.

Spencer Jones:

this was nice i liked the turn to hear his friend/partner/stalker?.. waiting in the bath. im not sure the acting choice of rolling the eyes at frame 186 was all that true to the feelings expressed in the audio. im being picky trying to help and could be wrong but liked it a lot

Rob:

Heheh... Nice twist.

I feel like the poses you hit for "fat" and "thing" are a bit too identical... The wieght is pretty good, and the poses read well overall. Maybe something a bit more extreme for that final scream reaction as well.

Nice work!

Taber Dunipace:

Very nice and pleasing motion and acting! It's just a little boring though, could use a bit of EXAGERATION somewhere. I can tell you know what you're doing and I'll be eager to see more of your work!

Joyce Tan:

good story design to make that screaming sensible.

Thomas Giles:

good camera work, and plot.

Guillaume:

nice, maybe the poses could be a little more extreme, or pushed, but staging and timing decent.
