Heh, you did the one a couple weeks ago with the guy picking up the rock and falling off the cliff? Looks cool just like that did. Very nice animating, bad star-shadow pattern from that light script you use. How come you dont go in and just turn shadows off on all but one of the lights?

Although the character is obviously a mannequin for the animation the background looks nice and is a decent setting for the clip.

The character is convincingly animated and has a natural appearance to his motions through out the clip, there is a lot of detail in the hand gestures and subtle motions in the body reacting to his mood. His motion when he walks off the screen is slightly exaggerated but works well.

There is nothing in the clip that is dynamic or particularly interesting, just a simple clip from a bland conversation, however As a technical demonstration of expressing character animation I think it is very good.

Thanks Frank, my main goal was this so I am happy :) I know that it is not something earth-shattering but something about expressing motions :bounce:

I like it alot :D

one prob, rather ... big I think

when the guy walks of you see the star shadow form follow him, not much problem there but when he is off the stage the shadows stop like he only moved just off the camera view and not further away.
