Hello everybody

First of all: If the video stopped and you want to see it again: Simply press 'F5'

All right
I thought it's time to show something from my character animation school where I started in Summer 2007.
Of course I'm still quite a beginner and school will go on for quite a while, but this is what I have got so far.
The reel starts with the latest work about body mechanics and then goes back to the very early bouncing ball animations and character poses.

Character Animation really is so much fun. Trying to make a 'dead' character feeling alive through animation is definitely amazing
Sure, it's also complicated and sometimes frustrating, especially at the beginning... but damn, I love it!

Comments are much appreciated, I'm looking forward to hear what you are all thinking about it.
Also critique is appreciated. Maybe you see something that feels wrong to you... too fast, too slow... whatever, let me know. I'm still learning this and every constructive help is really useful to me.

Thanks a lot,
Oliver


P.S. About the category 'Flash': Sure, this is 3D Animation, not Flash Animation. But there is no other way to upload it on DA, unfortunately.
