Hi all, I'm an animation student in Brisbane, Australia, and at the end of last year, one of my assessments was to create a character and do a 10 second dialogue animation with it. It's probably the first proper animation I've done, since the last character animation I did was the first animation I had ever done, and was really rushed and dodgy.

I probably won't go back to it, but I was just wondering if you guys could give me some pointers on what could be improved for next time.

The clip is from an episode of Robot Chicken.

Nice animation. I like the rendering the most. To be quite honest I was wow by the lighting and rendering not so much the animation. Maybe if you would put more frustration in him, he seems pretty upset that nobody takes him seriously so why not show him that way in his body language. Maybe his arms are crossed looking at the window. Or maybe he's holding his head up with his hand on his chin against the arm rest. Something to really show how he's feeling.

Wow, nice very nice work!

The lighting and rendering are great! All i could really help add to your piece is maybe when he says "I'm..i..i'm really capable!" maybe his hand pulls closer to him quicker to show he really means it. That he is really capable!

Great work.
