Just perfect... I like different kinds of animations. You really can animate real stuff as well as cartoon animation.

Keep up the good work

wow!! thanks everybody for the positive comments! :D

Whats up DELUCUBUS,

Unfortunately I had to bow out of Animation Mentor early because it just got to be to much with work. I got through class 4 but my 2 person dialogue piece was left unfinished. I hope to one day finish it up.

Very nice.
I especially like the Squirril ball and jetpack segments, the comedic timing was really well done and the characters expression when he first pushes the ignition button I found particularely funny.

really awesome reel dude, the only thing i can say is the music shouldnt be soo low that it just pops back in. I would have it low enough to hear but not loud enough to not hear the lip syncs, thats the only thing i can crit really, everything else was awesome!

Hey veljko-lemonade,

Those violent shots were for an animated horror trailer called "Blood Trail". It was created at "Nathan Love" and was written by Matt Cochran. The project was such a blast to work on! You can check out the whole trailer here....

one of the best reels I've seen in a while, good range of work, I remember the 11 sec club entry, I voted for yours... Even the selection of music was a good choice!

Really nice work ryan! If anything I thought you could lose the tailor piece, it slows the pace of the reel down a bit, and I just think you don't need it when you have so much other awesome stuff on show.

I know what you mean about AM getting too much with work as well, I really struggled to balance working full time and with class 4 in particular.

Good stuff!

Awesome reel! And I LOVE Nathan Love. Good stuff!

Hey Mattmos,

Funny you should say that. As i was putting my reel together the tailor piece was the one I struggled with whether to add it or not. Ultimately it ended up in there but I can totally understand what your saying and I appreciate your honesty.

Are you still in AM? If you are best of luck finishing up!

And again, thank you everybody who has taken the time to leave comments! Its an amazing feeling to get such positive reactions from fellow artists!

hahaha, thanks sean.

wouldn't have gotten that so-so animation without your so-so rigs.

Hey Ryan, no I managed to graduate somehow. Still working on the final film though, inbetween freelance gigs and other projects :blush:

Good luck with the reel, not that you need it!

You've got some real nice stuff in there. I particular like the AM stuff and the cookie "Rocky" shots.
