The character doesn't seem to be looking at anything most of the time. Work on his focus. I guess he is watching television but that doesn't carry throughout the piece.

Patrick Verlangieri

good key poses but you are probably missing more poses in between them use more time on polishing, so the character won't feel to "floaty" at some points

I also feel like his hands are to stiff, avoid even spacing on his fingers so his hand look more natural.

keep up the good work

cheers

If he's supposed to be yelling at the TV, the composition needs some serious rethinking. If he's yelling at something blocked from our view, then it works, I suppose. The lip sync is decent. The fingers desperately need to be loosened up and they symmetry of the hand gestures is quite distracting. Your work will benefit greatly if one hand is timed sooner or later than the other one and not a mirror of it. I didn't notice any blinking either.

Great poses, but timing needs improvement.
