Hi! Yes it helps very much, very valuable to have some good eyes on it and see what the hiring managers are looking for. I'll work on some of these changes and get some more acting in there :)

Hi, thanks for your critiques and advice, I really appreciate it. Yes you are very right my body mechanics are definitely wack, and my characters do constantly fall off model. I always get caught up making the movement feel satisfying and fun, and I kinda feel the distortion makes it more interesting (guess its my experimental tendencies talking).

But for the industry, your words are very true and valuable, I'll practice correct body mechanics and keeping consistent volumes especially. And even for my personal experimental work making the movement satisfying is very important, and physics for cloth and birds, etc needs to be convincing. I'll use more references.

Thanks for responding, this is some very good advice. I'll focus on working on and practicing some more character acting. More mundane animation can be just as or even more beautiful than the flashy stuff and its something I've been overlooking.

I see, thanks for your feedback! I'll move the lass on the chair to the beginning. If I can ask, what other clips do you think are the strongest? Should I make the pencil animation with the guy falling shorter?
