A very good entry. Could use a bit more polishing in certain actions but overall great animation.

Emmelyn

More curves in the body mechanics would be good to touch up on, and the stomp at the ends seems a little slow, but overall solid work and nice acting!

Zachary Lussier

Awesome, but i see some white dot on the guy shirt that's unfortunate :-(

eddyiv

Damn, that's really good!

Éloise Valiquette

I really like the interaction between you characters, it is well done!

Samantha Lewis

Wow!! I love the acting in this!!

This is the first time I've seen someone have the man character make sense when he says "nice talkin to ya"! The walking away is a good call. I also appreciate that she grabs him and says "wait" and THEN he reacts, unlike many who are having him react before she speaks.

I think your shots are pretty good and I appreciate that you included some animation on the guy even when we're only seeing the back of his head, so that he doesn't feel frozen. Overall though, the characters both feel kinda stiff and jerky, so I'd work on smoothing out your curves in the graph editor and see where that gets you!

Simon Côté

good camera angles and great fluidity :)

Anthony Abou Rezk

I like how much character the little girl has, you did a great job at that, the animation is pretty smooth too, the only thing I think needs some good work is the man's walk cycle, other than that, good job to you!
