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.

My third attempt at 2D animation, any tips on maintaining line consistency? Is it bad or noticable? Is it too choppy? How well is the physics?

Smoke critique?

I posted this walk animation a few months back and got good feedback. This time around I added a smoke animation that I hope isn’t too jarring. I know that’s not how blunt smoke works but I was going for a bit of an exaggerated look.

Body Mechanics animation review, please.

Hi everyone. I've been working on this modern dance animation for a while. I am crafting it for my 3D character animation demo reel to show my body mechanics skills, and I want it to feel graceful, beautiful, light, and fun. Do you have any suggestions for improving my animation to achieve this?

Just finished this assignment for class. Didn't have a scheduled blocking plus stage for this assignment. Would really like this to be movie level quality animation (without the rendering of course). Any criticism is welcomed!! :)
