Very nice. I wish I knew that language. Is that German?

The ghost was my favorite part. Very smooth animation.

Hey you have some nice shots on your reel. But some are not on the same level. I would limit you reel to the best shots you have. It seems a bit long too.
You should take out this furry thing is it a beaver? I can't see the weight in that animation
and you have shots from urmel where you're showing your sense for weight way better.
I would move the ghost animation to the beginning since it is the best in my opinion.
I also recommend to take out a bunch of urmel shots for example the sequence burping panda or the whale. The shots at second 0:11, 0:38, 1:32, 2:08 are not representative either.
at 0:59 I would take out that "Nein es gibt kein Problem" part. His right arm looks weired in
that pose as if the wrist is twistet too far and it appears also very stiff as if you deleted some of the keys on his hand.
I would recommend to cut directly to "das ist alles voellig normal" instead.

Hope this helps and good luck with your reel

Thank you all for the critique :)
@ kcinobro: Yeah it's german. Were any parts boring because you didn't understand the language?
