Good acting, expressive movement and face. The camera angle could be a bit better, if you switch to a low angle or push in a bit. A drift or very slight zoom might help. The real problem there is the edge of the car on the right being red/orange, drawing attention to that side of the screen, while the character is talking to someone off-screen to the other side. It creates a confusing visual hierarchy. It makes it feel like we're almost listening to his back-or being pulled off-screen. Unfortunately, you have some really nice motion, but the awkwardness steals away some of the visual appeal.

Love the body motion.

I enjoy the subtle acting choices. Probably the only one that was a little offsetting was the "be curious" part. Everything else looks great!
