[character animation] the mirror

[Deleted Vertex]

A good animator can show he/she is good by animating just a cube or a ball. Or bones in many cases, for example this artist's bones only intro;

Your stuff is good although definitely rooms for improvement, I don't know if you do this intentionally, but the movements very similar to those of stop-motion animation. usually people would want to make the motions less stiff, literally everything moves when a character is in motion. for instance when his upper body bends the lower part will be affected as well... & secondary motion, etc...

Anyway it shows your understanding of it alright, keep up the good work!

I agree with you to a certain extent vertex, but these days just good animation doesn't always cut it, if u have an ok animation like we have here 'the mirror' but if the chacter was a high res model with better lighting textures etc then the viewing pleasure would increase to a much higher level... It's all about the final product...

thanks for the comments..
vertex: you are totally right, there ismuch room for improvements, but i rather want to make something new and better now instead of making this one better.

The stiff-thingy: yep! thats my prob.. I never do enough secondary motions :(
