Hey everyone,

My name is Eric, and this is my latest animation reel. I was hoping to get some honest feedback, and critiques. I am a recent graduate and trying to get hired as an animator at a few game dev. companies. Thanks for looking, and again critiques are much appreciated.

wow man! i really enjoyed everything there! your 3d stuff was cool, stop motion awesome yet jerky lol, and the 2d was very well done! that was a nice touch too by showing that you know how to use UnrealEd and can make your animations work in it.. awesome for employers since you want to get into the game industry. nice work overall!

o and btw.. charlie brown electric guitar ftw!! :D

Hi, Eric! That was really cool, very entertaining!:thumbsup:
I think it's a big plus, to show also talent in 2D animation and stop motion, which was a little gem for itself, enjoyed it very much.:)
Nothing to crit really, only in your footbag scene, I think the bag could be more sluggish and lose its momentum faster when it's kicked up (instantly reminds of good old California Games :D). Apart from that I noticed a lot of walk-cycles, I think you can spice it up with some other standard animations instead.

Good work overall, and good luck!
