Adrian Winchell:
The animation rule "show, don't tell" seems to be reversed here - the big flashy words and graphics in the background distract from the animation and make it hard to watch the acting. You've got a good sense of the poses here, and I could see them timed and scaled to work really well, but in this version they float a lot, and seem to be trying to out-shout the background, particularly the "NO MEAT" gesture at around 220-230.
Lucas Donaldson:
Character movement looks off. I like the background images though.
James Hornby:
you seem to be hitting accents which is nice but sometimes the characters seem to be moving for no other reason than to just move them. I would suggest hitting poses on the accents in the dialogue instead of having their limbs floating constantly
Richard Adams:
The added graphics were strange, like a TV ad. *shudder* Decent animation otherwise.
Yanick Belanger:
Not sure what the gestures are for. The texts appearing in the background does not add anything in my opinion. The animation is surely a good start though, the poses are great. You might need some polish so the flow from one to the other is better
