Yes, you are getting better at your movements, add some motion in the foot when the figure pushes off the ground.

You lack the reaction. The body and the head doesn't really bend or move when he lands. I also suggest you put a line so that you will know where the stick had start so that you will also know where he will end in the same level. If you don't understand look at your jump. First your level was below then when he landed he was a little higher than before.

I knew he stuttered....... The reason i did not bend the head that much is because i thought the movements would look unnatural. ill edit it.

The reaction was mostly well done, head movement isn't needed. It's a small jump, so you don't need too much of a reaction other then a small tilt in the spine and bending in the knees. The arms do need more of a reaction when hitting the ground. If the figure jumped off a platform and onto the ground, then yes you would need some head movements and more of a spine movement downward. The stick figure dose land a little high then were it starts, which makes a kind of jerk in the loop. Easy fix though.

Well for a beginner, I'd say your mostly on your way on being a great animator kid.
@Ani:Yeah i know. I just noticed that right now. He does lack reaction movements in the arms and legs if you ask me.

You're getting better, but there are some problems. First of all, the arms are too stiff. If you want a loose look, try to move them more, in relation to the onionskin, trying to get them closer to... okay that didn't make any sense. Just try to make them flow more, and move them every frame. Even for a more controlled look, they move every frame. Sorry that didn't make very much sense... Another thing, It felt liike he jumped too high for the amount of anticipation there was.

It's definitely a great improvement. It could just use a more exaggerated anticipation and followthrough. I don't think you're high beginner yet, I'm afraid. But ranks are meaningless so it doesn't matter.

Apart from the jerkiness around the loop it was alright. You seem to be getting the hang of easing now, which is making everything look better.
