my character animation showreel

[jCastile]

Very good work. The walk cycle on the protoceratops maybe could use a tweak as it looks like his feet occupy the same space in a few spots. But it's a very strong show overall.

Limp Bizkit???

Yes, its limp, "ill be ok". Thx, for comment.

hey there, it looked like some shots you could have shown the whole thing together instead of cutting and spacing them thru-out the reel. Another suggestion teachers used to tell us was keep curse language out of the reel, most in the industry have a good sense of humor and some companies watch your reel without the sound on unless there are lip syncs so I've been told. Its just usually better to keep it rated pg-13 for demo reels. I was really diggin the big robot and cartoony dinosaur, seemed like your strongest pieces to me, just need to smooth out some of your other animations.

really good work dude is it mental ray or v-ray?

Nice stuff! As CGOutcast mentioned, I'm not sure that Limp Bizkit is the right audio for a reel. In fact, the song is so slow that it kinda made the reel feel too long. I'd choose something else, maybe something more upbeat, like the music from your Tango short.

I really like the silhouette of the guy pushing the ball up the hill. Great work on that piece, might want to move it to the beginning. I like the shot with the woman fanning herself, I'd put that more toward the beginning, too. I also like the footwork shot in your Tango short, and would like to see that added in place of some of the shorter clips that don't add as much (i.e. guy with glasses looking at woman's butt, and the first triceratops).

Man. Seriously. Some of those clips are like 20 frames. It was just a bunch of weird different stuff being thrown in my face. Don't cut up animations, ESPECIALLY when a lot of your clips are so short. You could stand to lose a few of them also and tighten up the longer stuff. Keep triceratops (the first one) but yeah, fix the feet like somebody said and don't have the back one and the front one move at the same time. Looks like they're offset maybe one or two frames, but make it more. When he gets up is pretty nice though. Maybe move the base of the tail a bit more too.

czesc Marco ;)
The real is quite good actually
some of the stuff that you show I will cut off maybe but overall its a good start and now you just need to updated with new fresh animations and go forward !!!
