Hey Gianmichele -

really nice finish to all of this. I really like your cartoony style and the facial stuff you did.
Good luck with the future.

Nice work Gianmichele!

I would suggest that you take out the heavy box push, mainly because of the camera moves which are not necessary, IMO. The cam moves really hid the actual animation from me.

Everything else seemed very strong.

Good luck!

Interesting idea in your short film, I might critique that the main character lacked being trully scared. He seemed a nervous scared not a TERRIFIED SCARED, I mean death is after him right? and his whole life should be flashing by while and at the same time rapid instinct is taking over his mind and body movements. it has a nice feel to it and i like the touch with his ears when he pushes back against the wall. And it was hard to understand the first words that death is saying in the closet, I think (excuse me) but i only made it out after the second go around. I would also try and push the very last pose when death says 'I'll be seeing you next week End with some spice. Overall good animation and story.

nice short man. liked the concept but there is something that u can do with mail char's acting. he doesn't look that scared and also u can make him happy when he finds out that its not him. animation wise it looks good to me. keep it up man.

Hey how come this didn't get any stars!!

So much for the star system. Now I'm going to have to check stuff that doesn't have any stars?

Work, work, work . . . .

Hi Gian!! Long time since we meet in AM :)

You have a very strong reel here. I like almost every animation you put in there. Very good poses and sense of timing, I love it!

Godd Luck in the future :thumbsup:
