These are just a couple pivot animations I made. I was practicing hand to hand combat and sword swings.

That's fucking impressive man. I like how you use a high fps, it's nice and you do it well. You have alot of things down, but your animations are still plenty shaky and stiff. Keep posting more and learning form your mistakes i'd love joint with you some time.

That is excellent for a beginner. i would of thought you animated for half and year or so.
The backs of the sticks are stiff. Add some more back joints. It'll be a easy fix.
The foot placement is off. Just add a invisible stk as a guide.
The camera shakes were great. They added much needed force and weren't to over used.
The second stick eased out badly after his last attack. Just add some more frames and stuff.

I get the hang of computer-related things really quickly. I think it comes from years and years of playing video games (I've been playing them since I was four years old). Anyway, do both feet have to remain in the same position until they are lifted up? What do you mean by an invisible stk?
