Lauren Andersson:

haha! this guy reminds me of my finish cousin, markus! Nice animation, i really like the hands.

Marcos Borba Moreira:

nice one, just the "for me"looks like he is moving all at the same time. other then that, good job

Jesse Baumgartner:

Nice stuff. Your accents are nice. Feels really natural.

Jack Daniels:

He must be a gymnast... leg seems to fly up there on it's own.

Sunny Kharbanda:

Some great poses there.. however, the part where he lifts his foot needs a clearer sense of weight.

Matt Kenley:

very well done. One thing is when he brings his leg up it seems awkward. I dont know why, maybe the shift of balance isnt enough. But very good overall.

Eric Huang:

Hey nice work! When he puts his right leg on his left leg, it looks wrong. There should be a weight shift somewhere in there... it's distracting without it.

Patrick Alessi:

you caught the character.

Cody Woodard:

I would look at adjusting for a little weight transfer when he lifts his leg up, as for the rest you did an excellent job.

Nathan Jones:

Nice animation, i noticed the lip-sync on: "help him in some way,....get him this girl that he loves" the shapes dont quite match the audio as well as it could.

kEViN:

I think you could use a litle more asymmetry in the face. Also, the pose where he puts his foot up needs more anticipation and follow through to sell the action. Right now it's a bit to effortless.
Not bad overall though!

Adam Knight:

Great character, I liked your facial expressions and the sniffles.

Aaron Jonas:

hey nice work. the only that jumps at me is when he puts his leg up, shift his weight tho his left for correct weight distribution

Harry G:

The start was real good untill he lifts up his leg. He's static for the last 19 - 20 frames.

Michael Vandenhoven:

Really nice! Perhaps it me my play back but the "girl taht he loves" seemed a little out of sync, but asside from that, really really nice.

John Erickson:

very nice. nice suttle facial expressions. seems a bit odd with the leg cross. maybe the weight should shift on the upper torso to his left as the leg comes up. great job

evan:

wicked!

Ann-Marie Denham:

I'd just hold the closed mouth on "me" for a bit longer just to make it register to the eye. Greatt stuff, though!

Steve Clarke:

Very impressive animation. Not much else to say,i just liked this a lot.

kienwei80:

Quite good acting.

Aaron Clement:

Good. Some nice subtle acting in there... I like it... Only thing I noticed was the leg lift... felt a little fast... good job overall, though.

Patrick Chin:

Very good and nicely polished animation. The facial animation seems a bit one-dimensional though. I think that's partly because he has just one basic expression throughout the piece. And to accent both 'change' and 'me' might be too much. But overall very very nice.

Roberto G:

Lip Sync needs a bit more polish

Davide Como:

I like it very much! Just a thing: when he finishes his speech he stands still for about half a second as frozen... maybe a little "in-pose settling" movement could have helped

Gregory Naud:

Really like the acting

David Artura:

Nice work! You had me up until the leg raise. I like it, just not where it is, maybe if it was more of a puncuation after the dialogue was finished.

ArunVijayan:

hey nice animation!!!!

Gurneet Singh Khahra:

jus wanna say one thing "accent"
is not there in ur animation

Yeray Díaz Díaz:

Not bad, you have nice moves, except for the leg part, it lacks mechanichs he would've fallen down. Acting wise nice choices although you need to add some contrast, more changes on the line of action.

PARK DAE EOK:

nice

Damian Isherwood:

You need a bit more pelvis rotation and momentum to get the leg lifted but looks great other wise.

Ciaran:

Excellent. It's a pity the character doesn't match the voice at all but the acting's great. Great work (lots of stars for this :D )

Mat Thompson:

Very nice piece with subtle but varying levels of strength in the postures. Some more change in the facial animation would have really made this sing and I'd have come in a bit more with the camera on this shot or maybe even cut to more to a second close-up. Nice work !

Wolfram Kampffmeyer:

work on the lipsync, the rest is good

Dan Dulberger:

Great animation! Good poses and just the right amount of movement. The only thing that looks odd is how effortlessly he lifts his leg. One would think removing that much amount of support (going from tripod to duopod) would alter the balance in the rest of the body more.

Derek Mabson:

This animation is very nice. Nothing to really critique. Good job!

boonyik:

great work! acting feels very natural.

Francisco:

Excelent!

Freddy Burgos:

Great job overall! One small thing is when he brings his leg up is to have it affect the spine a bit more. You could have him rotate his spine as he's bringing the leg up or something like that. Keep it up!

Paul Borawski Jr.:

This is really, really good. The only thing I saw that seemed forced and weird was the leg cross. It was animated well, it just seemed unnatural and forced in there.

Gustavo Calle:

good animation, but I think the character is a bit out of balance whe he puts his leg on his knee.


G. Smith:

I seriously commend you because you made this character not only look like a guy but also act like a guy..the other's that I have seen using this model have not even come close to making it move like a guy would
