Good short. In my opinion there are a couple of things you can improve. First the pace of the actions in your characters. Every pose and action they do they seem to do it at the same speed, add more variation to the speed of their actions to create more dynamism. The other thing is that you can push the poses further, exaggerate them more, right now some of the time their silhouette is not that strong.

Anyway, really good job and hope this comments were helpful

That was very clever and well done. I really liked the whole concept and everything was pretty well done except for the above crits that David mentioned. I have to agree that the poses could of been spread out in different variations of timing as well as adding some more "punch" to them. I think with a wide open concept like the fantasy hats you could really do anything you wanted with that. For instance, when the customer puts on the army/military hat and feels like he's in battle, you should have him be more like a soldier in his movements, quickening his pace at some areas and slowing him down in others, like if he was sneaking through trenches or something. Just a tip. I really love the idea and I'm looking forward to seeing it taken a bit further. Good luck and good work!
