[ZIP-LOCK]

Great character design! Fully did not realize it was 3D until the turnaround

[Ice Age The Remakeboot]

its oddly pleasing to look at even if intentionally goofy yknow. its janky but in a smooth way.

[Bugbo meets Strawberry Clock]

you did an excellent job at recreating bugbo

Potatoman responds:

Im sorry man. I'll try to make something better next time :(

[The Milkman]

this was a really fun watch. the style is great, and the story was fun too, as well as the character designs. however, the animation was unnatural and janky and there were many technical mistakes.
i reccomend you work on the principle of slow in/ slow out, as much of the jankyness is caused by the movements of the characters having no easing in or out, abruptly going from one pose to another with minimal smears that wernt well placed and worsened the effect. the timing also wasnt great and the lipsincs rarely sinc up. also try to remember the way limbs move in relation to one another. when someone breathes, not only their shoulders move up, but their arms and torso do too.
theres many mistakes with the way the camera is panned and the backgrounds lined up. i noticed a couple scenes having white boarders, and also the camera panning was janky as well, similarily do to the lack of slow in/slow out.
but i really enjoyed it and i really love the picture chosen as the thumbnail too cuz that drew me in

Schwanemann responds:

I 100 percent agree with you. I do wish I had an extra month to smooth everything out and add more secondary motion in scenes that needed it.

[Metroid fan animation]

animaton itself is a little still, maybe could use more easing into and push back into the final poses? the timing from key pose to key pose itself is well done but maybe the stiffness and inconsistency of inbetweens is the problem. especially that first scene where she slides on the floor is awkward. the anatomy and perspective are extrmeely great however and the colors are BEAUTIFUL. as well as the backgrounds

BigRed2099 responds:

Hey thanks for the critique man yeah I really struggled with timing the key frames and in betweens, I might’ve needed to add a few more frames of easing to really sell it but I was under a bit of a time crunch. And thanks i wanted a vibrant look for the color palette, i initially thought I went a lil overboard with the colors but I’m glad you like it. Like I said before this was my first fully colored animation so I’m glad with how it came out.

LOVE IT

[Ionia - The Arid Tundra]

LOVE THIS!!!!! the caracter designs, the creative creature concepts... aughhhh.... i'm a sucker for speculative evolution

[Weed Addiction to High THC]

I have a morning ritual that I need to share. I call it "the terminator". First I crouch down in the shower in the classic "naked terminator traveling through time" pose. With my eyes closed I crouch there for a minute, visualizing either Arnold or the guy from the second movie (not the chick in the third one because that one sucked) and I start to hum the terminator theme. Then I slowly rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me to proceed through my day as an emotionless, cyborg badass. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It ruins the fantasy.

[Did you just hit Egg?]

probably couldve been smoother if you utilized the principle of slow in slow out a bit better. when the guy gets punched and explodes its well animated though and the shading when u had it was nice. also if you added sound effects i think it would be like twice as good and would add to the humor and atmosphere alot.
