/r/AnimationCrit
A friendly space to receive and give feedback on each other's character animations. All skill levels and tools welcome.
Please note that all posts have to include a question or request for feedback in the TITLE, not comments. Your submission also has to be a character animation, video editing and animatics are not allowed.
Welcome to /r/animationcrit, a friendly space where you can post your animations and receive feedback!
RULES:
- Your post has to be an animation created by you.
You cannot post someone else's work, commercial work, etc. Your post also has to include an animation in some stage of progress.
Animation in this case is defined by creating the illusion of movement through a rapid succession of handcrafted images. Recordings of your screen does not count as animation, low effort animation has to take rule 4 into account.
- Title has to include a question or request for feedback.
This is a forum for giving and receiving feedback, and in order to encourage conversation around an animated piece the post needs to include a specific question or a request. It is not enough to simply post "This is my animation", the post has to show that you are interested in hearing what people have to say about it.
Here are a few examples of what you could ask: "How can I improve this animation?" "What's missing in this animation?" "What do you think about the art style?"
- Title should NOT include inquiries for likes/views/shares.
We will assume that you are posting to this subreddit to grow and improve as an animator, and then likes/views/shares don't matter. If you are looking to share your animation with the world, try posting to /r/animation.
- Animatics/storyboards have to be marked as such.
We welcome animation that is work in progress, however we ask that you describe where you are in the progress using one of these words in the title: storyboard, animatic, boardomatic, leica reel, blocking, or a similar term you think suits.
If your work is simply "low effort", meaning it's more of an image slide show than an animation, this will not count as an actual animation. Animation needs to convey the illusion of movement to count as such, image slide shows does not accomplish this.
- Be considerate. Treat each other like you would a friend, use polite language and don't be rude.

Looking for feedback and where to go
I made a post on r/animationcareer about feeling lost with where to go and what to do. I got told to make a portfolio with what I had and get some feedback on it, The Showreel I have attached is one I had to make for university and is made with work I made completely in my final year, since then I haven't worked on anything.
I'm thinking of trying to venture into a new sector of the industry with a different specialist practice and one idea I had was going into games, if there is any help that you guys have when learning how to get into games animation that would be a massive help. Here's the post I made over there:
"I am an Animation Graduate of 1 year based in the UK and I have almost nothing to show for it. I felt that my course was not worth it and I hadn't produced anything I was proud of and now after a year of doing nothing with my degree I feel as if I might be forgotten as I don't have much to my skillset or name.
I have been trying to think or plan on what to do but its very overwhelming. I really need help on what I need to do and what I need to learn. Things like what I should put in my portfolio and where I can learn the skills. I've been thinking of leaning more towards game animation, maybe motion graphics or maybe even modelling. I never really got my style in university and I never pinpointed what career path I wanted to go down.
I feel as if an internship is a way to go as even a junior position seems to be quite above my skill level. How can I work towards having the skills and value for this?
General and Initial Questions I had:
What does my portfolio need?
What do I need to learn from the very foundation?
Where can I find resources to learn from that are reliable and good practices?
What can I do to network in the UK?
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Any advise would be a massive help!"

Please give me feedback on my animation? (Procreate dreams)
My fist animation that I made in Procreate Dreams and I was learning it from Aaron Blase tutorials.
I got diagnosed with autism year ago and managed to get courage and learn animation by myself and wanted to express my struggle with eye contact and overstimulation by the loud world.
My cat is main character and Moon is metaphor for mother Moon and Earth 🤍
I also included my piano playing!
How do you like it? Please let me know what can I improve or what you suggest next to be learned?
Many thanks!

Squash n’ stretch test.
I haven't been animating much lately, I've mostly been working on my drawing skills. This animation test was created about 7 months ago.
This is my attempt at squash and stretch animation, but i feel like something's off. The animation feels very stiff and robotic rather than natural and lively. I’ve always had a habit of making very stiff animation so i definitely need to work on that issue. Any feedback would be helpful. I plan on making another squash and stretch animation test someday, just to refine it a bit.
