Hello everyone,

Hoping for some feedback and suggestions!

I'm in the middle of a little skit for my demo reel/website. The story is about a taxi driver that is waiting at a red stoplight when suddenly a giant robot begins destroying the city.

I've blocked most of the animation out, so I've decided to tackle my first sequence of the taxi driver pulling up to the redlight.

Here's the latest version of the shot. I did a quick render/comp test overnight of it.

I'm mainly trying to repose him before I try to clean it up. I'm still not completely happy with the flow.

To do,

- Refine poses after he removes his smoke and settles back into his seat
- Add antic/settles
- Start splining things out and smoothing arcs
- Tweak camera move and taxi animation
