Description
Working on some animation for my demo reel.Pretty rough at this stage so I'm still currently working on it. Any suggestions or critiques are welcome.
Edit: 18/02/09
Edited the throw to emphasise greater weight.
Edit: 14/03/09
Started animating a second box for him to throw. There will eventually be three boxes overall. Still need to refine his pick up, and may need to add struggle to his turn.
Didn't do much editing to the first throw.

The boxes just keep coming!

The finished one is gonna have three different boxes, so they'll keep coming, but in variety

The animation is very flowing and realistic. Good job

Remember! lift with your legs not with your back!!

Animation = the ability to defy proper protocols and natural laws
But yea, I should've made him bend with his legs. Thanks though

XD Hahaha, I was just nagging you, its a form of my humor. But I really do like the animation, I'll to keep checking back :3

That's alright

It seems like he's moving too fast, no hesitation at all. I think it might look a little better if he strained just a little bit after picking up the box (like "Oh shit this is some heavy business"). And then what those other dudes said about the whole throwing nonsense, with giving the box a little more weight.

Good points. Could add a bit more hesitation and anticipation when he picks up the box and balances a moment before throwing.
Thank you

Just awesome ^^
Maybe more surprise when he see the new box ...
But You're already working on it so good luck
... I can't wait to see the final one !!!!

Surprise would be nice, but I suppose I was trying to make it appear like a loop: constantly working over and over.
But thank you

To me, everything looks great! Reminds me of an assembly line worker.

I think it's really fluid; can't say much more critique-wise than anyone else has, so it looks fine to me c:

poor guy, comdemned to lift crates and throw them off for ever...
Very nice animation.
Are you going to add sound?
π: 0 β©: 1
Not really. It's just a short animation to add to my demo reel.
If I get bored, suppose I could always record me grunting and grumbling
Thanks

jaja xD ItΒ΄s awesome xD
i havenΒ΄t got anny sugestions, but when he throws the boxes, the movement with his right leg itΒ΄s a litte strange, you can add some more rotation on that leg...... but I think itΒ΄s perfect
I like it a lot xD

The leg could probably use more rotation, yea.
Thank you

main thing I noticed... he has the power to remove details from anything he touches! the box has detail when he walks up, then the details vanish when he touches it
π: 0 β©: 1
Yea, I've now changed it so the box remains blank. Originally I was gonna animate the crate details at the end...but it got tedious.
So now its blank

hehe, glad I could make ya life easier

Looks good! my only suggestion would be to add a little momentum, making him pull the box back a tiny bit to gain balance to throw it
im not sure if i made myself clear, though
π: 0 β©: 1
I get what you mean.
Thank you

Give him a rest god damn!!! You are killing him!! XDD

pretty awesome (I'm sensing where the inspiration comes from..
I think a bit more of a weight shift in your legs when you throw the box off to the side would be good.
π: 0 β©: 1
I think I'm gonna need to put in a small step when he turns to throw. Maybe add some "overbalance" for comical effect....More drawing is needed.
Thanks Gem

its good but the leg movement on the throw seems a bit un-natural maybe add a little step when he throws it?
π: 0 β©: 1
That might help....I'll give it a try.
Thanks

aha, i noticed the update.
the movement really shows the weight of the box now. good job
