Jamie:

the eyes are great. Lip sync could've been pushed more.

Brad Regier:

Good stuff! Maybe more antic before he takes the swig, and before the final pose.

HariNarayan:

hey i think u r going 2 b this month's winner
:)
g8 job dude........

Jesse Baumgartner:

Lip sync is pretty soft in some spots and could be accented more. There's a weird hitch when he says "things would...ch-change". It feels like he's anticipating his next action too many times.

Daniel Huertas:

nice acting.. but i think the actions doesn't match with the intensity of the audio clip and at the end in the line "for me" looked like "for me??" keep it up!

Chris de Souza:

Awesome job! It seems like he pops a little too fast into "help him" (frames 84-91)

Patrick Alessi:

Very expressive facial animation!

Gino Garibaldi:

Great shot, a little static for my likes but subtle. Lip sink seems a little floaty and i was a little unsure for the head bobs @ frame 300 or so... However very good job!

Rico Lim:

I like how you didn't go crazy with the hands like a lot of the other submissions. Less is more.

David Bokser:

great polish. The lip sync is a little too loose and seems to hit at the wrong time.

Adam Knight:

I really like the facial expressions and how you added in the drink. Great work!

Dhar:

Very nice work. The character doesn't seem to fit the voice. Needed to be a bit more aggressve?

Eric Huang:

A lot of nice subtlety here, nice job.

Aaron Clement:

Good use of subtle acting... I'm not sure why he looks off the the corner like that... I thought the guy was more out in front... Nice staging and setting, though.

diganta:

very good i like it

W Jacob Gardner:

too dramatic change of expression for the delivery of the line at the end. also, don't change the expression so much over a large head move. the audience won't see it, and then all of the sudden...boom, different expression.

kienwei80:

Nice facial expression.

Michael Cawood:

Excellent work. My only criticism is that the dialogue performance seems a lot bigger than your performance.

Tom Cho:

NIce subdued acting but I felt it could use a stronger accent.

John Erickson:

nice stutter movement at ch-change for me

Yeray Díaz Díaz:

Hey, nice job. I see a couple of problems though, "help him" seems a little weird, he goes inward, not outward. Maybe it's an interpretation thing but it just felt weird. The ch-change part is a little jerky in my opinion, although it reads well. And the last pose seems to smile, doesn't suit the clip too much in my opinion.

Nice twist on the sniff part, really nailed the swallow.

Great job in general, smooth and solid!

David Artura:

Good work, but the lip sync needs to be tightened up, mostly in the second third of the shot.

The lean in at the end is a bit abrupt. Overall, great work!

Mariya Kalachova:

Wow really great acting! brilliant expression!

Erick Rohn:

Great piece of subtle animation. Lip sync seams very accurate and facial expressions read well. Only crit is that the section "help him in some way, get him" his head is turned around so far that his mouth almost disappears and there is nothing else happening in the frame. It kinda dies for a second until he picks up the glass. I really like the shaky head and shifty eyes. It adds great life to the character.

John Cruz:

My favorite so far.

Emmanuel Vergne:

"i thought" works really well
from f290 to f310, there is a weird repetition in the head and in the eyebrows

Ciaran:

Good stuff. I like the eyes and the acting in general is good. Bonus point for doing something other than a sniff for f256.

selvaraj:

very goog animation

Nanda van Dijk:

real nice facial expressions, i just think the last part needs a bit more emotions after seeing the beginning.
but it looks realy good!
