That's a lot of work in seven days. You did brilliantly -- I hope you had a rest on Sunday...
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

Here is another Anime Studio work. This Client gave me enough time but Pushed a genre
which i have always been avoiding...Music Video. Again as an up coming Animator when business calls your name, you just have to make it work.

I liked the dancing guy -- his head could have moved a bit, then it would have been perfect! But yes, I can well appreciate that you don't get time for niceties...

Good work! That's some of the most convincing human animation on this forum here. Be proud of this.

I think you may include some more different expressions in your faces. You have such detailed designs, they're perfect for more acting.

A tip for music videos: instead of a white background, just introduce some colours or patterns and change it with the beat. Clients love vibrant colours, in my expereience.

Thanks Pihms, I always want to share my works. At times am constrained by time at times client contractual obligation :? .
From the last time i posted till now i have been working on a clients piece, 3 animated instructional adverts.

Would also like to thank Slowtiger.
I think He/she has a well trained eye not only for animation but for film also.
To be able to simply look at an animation and see color values, Framing, Staging, composition... Without flipping a text book, needs a trained eye.
His constructive criticisms i only realized their value after gaining some practical experience of my own. Some of the posts i had to save them to PDF and study the
pointers carefully

Thanks to Jahnocli, Lwaxana, Yosemite Sam,.... and many other experienced Anime Studio users helping Newbies
