Sorry, my ears are not working for me today and English is supposed to be my 1st (and only ) language :frowning: . I’m afraid I can’t understand the dialogue.

However, even with the sound off, your acting should convey the basic “gist” of the shot, which yours failed to do. So before polishing, rethink your poses and your acting, or better yet choose a better dialogue piece.

Thank you mate for the reply will try to improve the poses but i feel have limited choices in it so gonna put gun instead of a key and a car will transform into horse cart or something to make it intresting worked on it for 3 weeks hard to shelve it now i guess
So will do somethings to make shot intresting

Hey man, I think just from workflow standpoint it would be a good idea to start out w/ both characters in there, that way you can plan out your broad keys for both guys and get a much better sense of them interacting w/ each other.

As for the guy in the scene now, everything looks pretty pose to pose right now (things are all hitting at the same time), offsetting or adding extra breakdowns will help give it more visual appeal.

Keep it up brother

I’m not going to lie to you this is not very good. It might be because it is missing the second character, but I was really confused with the animation. I wasn’t even sure there was lip-sync done on the character.
Things that confuse me: Staging, body language, speed and tempo of the animation.

Hey mate thanks for ur reply i will be puttinfg the second character very shortly will clear the confusion to many ii had not included it because it was in stepped mode i had blocked both the characters
And ya lip sync is not done just on the key poses a bit for look has been given
