This is my latest demo reel. I'm looking for a job in games so I put off posting it for a bit to create a functional website to show employers. Anyway, it's all pretty new, so critiques on the reel, website, and work are all appreciated. My website is in my sig, regularly updated. Thanks for any feedback!

i loved it very much....
very smooth animation...(the jump at the start is awesome)
great characters and UV texture's
cool morph's!
the only crit is about the talking part
i think the sound is loony but the way he's acting is less loony then the sound..
anyway... Excellent reel!

I like the animation a lot, very smooth, they way the char jsut stay around i enjoy a lot...

but the talking part i felt it was kind of wierd too, fell loose, but it is still very good.

take care

Hey, thanks for the comments guys.

As far as the talking goes, he's my first and only facial animation character, and in retrospect I could have pushed the blend shapes' exaggerations more - lesson learned I guess. I may try just pushing the blend shape values past thier maximums to try achieving those extremes, but I'll definately keep it in mind for any future face shapes I make.

Thanks for the feedback!

sKullzao: Yes :), but I've lived in the US all my life.
