Time Taken

Started about three or four weeks ago, but most of the animation was done in the last two weeks.

Description

Because as legendary gangster Al Capone once said, "you can get more of what you want with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word"... even if the "gun" is not a gun at all!

Rigs used: Morpheus and Max.

what's going on ?

Piotr Skulimowski

Camera movement makes no scene.

Filipe Pedrosa

The camera moves and jumps too much! I would keep it to two cameras at the most, and no movement in them. I like the idea behind it, but it needs more subdued camera movements and more refined animation.

Reginald Crumpler

This was pretty good. A bit more focus on the 2nd figure would have made it totally pop.

Janzelle

Story telling is nice, pretty funny to see he doesn't have a gun, but the walking motion of the tan character looks a bit awkward. Lip motion is a bit too big at most times, but overall it's okay.

Brad Bradbury

Apparntly you made the camera decisions while you were upset.

Jyrki Kanto

The camera moves are unmotivated, and some of the cuts are really hasty. If you are going for a handheld look, it's better to rotate more and translate less.
