The movements of your stickmans seems ok, I would say it's pretty good for a second animation... but why the f**k is there no head ? XD

well i read a tut that said have your heads on another layer.. so unless im planning on finishing on a animation i just say.. screw the heads....(minds out of the gutter everyone)

Tell me If I need some improoving. I just made this for fun. :Happy: http://img398.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fallingdudeaq1.swf

...I'm speachless...

What, good, or bad?

I'll say like this:improve.

God you guys are ****ing useless, give him some god damned criticism.


Ok, the walk loop was poor and sloppy, try adding more frames in between with less jerky movements.

You could also add feet to your sticks which would make them look better.

And when the guy fell on top it looks like all there limbs went crazy and you couldn't really tell what was going on.

Oh well, just keep practicing and you will get better in no time.

there alot of room for improvement :D firstly make them thinner but not to thin, so like animate with the biggest brush but zoom in 400% trust me they look less sloppy that way coz thats wat i do and like Ecplipse said add feet to them, then your sticks will look pro in no time :D keep it up!!

not bad for 3rd but i dont like the brush tool i prefer line but thats just me.

I see that you used the edit bugg.:Happy:

Well the walking was a bit dodgy, look at some tutorials, both pivot and flash.

And the impact with the wall looked wrong, cant say whats wrong with it because I suck at impacts.

The stick looks a bit to fat, but thats just what I think.

Overall i'd say that it's pretty good, nice idea with the backwards thing, if you make it faster it would look very cool.

Much better my 3rd anime, i was still getting walking right, i'm still terible at it XD

Anyways just take more time,
Try useing a little less smoothness,
Or a thiner brush
Anyways,
Good try

Just spend a little more time in the fram you'r in know, than trying to rush to the end to show people,

Just keep at it and you'll get there.

Ok, I will post from oldest to newest (i did all of em in the same day but i get better as they get newer)

Hai there, your runs are not so bad, but there's something not looking right.
I scanned one page from the Animator's Survival Kit for you.

Ok, you don't really have to do exactly same looking stuff,
but it's there just to give you the basic idea of running and you can, and you should do variations of it.
The book is really, really helpful :>

the walking was bad, pratice walk loops, but the fall when he hit the wall looked realistic. good for 3rd animation,

but before you make animations pratice
-Walking
-Running
-Jumping (it helps)

and post your running/walking loops on here so people can give some criticism

again just like your other animation, you need to pratice
-Running
-Jumping
-Walking and then making animations will be so much easier.

Hey, well Im new and everything and I just posted my first animation recently, so If yall all could check it out and tell me what u think.. Its called Sanitarium.
Plz go and watch it and tell me what u think.
