Jason - Pong Blocking


virginie found this script skAnim (http://www.creativecrash.com/maya/downloads/scripts-plugins/animation/c/dkanim)

That helped me transfer animation keys from on rig to another fast. After watching this i noticed my lipsync moves too fast it parts. But that can be fixed

Nice work! I like what you did with the feet in the beginning - adds some flavor to the shot. And the fingers tapping is really smooth.

I feel like the gestures of the character on the left are too similar at 00:11 and 00:14. I'd suggest doing something different with the second one - maybe have him point at the screen when he says 'Ain't nobody gonna win.'

I like the placement of the title, too. You should leave that in. :)

To help with the similarity issue, maybe keep the spikey-hair guy (left) in his initial reclining position. It might even be more natural to start him off there -> If the guy is bored out of his mind watching this pong game, he probably isn't going to sit up, turn, and talk directly to the other guy. All of his energy has been zapped!

Also - you've set up the audience with very slooow, rythmic movements - why break it so suddenly with him sitting up in order to speak? I know it's in stepped, so maybe I'm just not reading your idea clearly. Ease into your scene. You've made this a thing where small, lazy movements can be the strongest acting pieces ! :D
