Hey Justin, i really don't want to be harsh but i'm going to have too.

Your animation is reaaally fucking slow unless it's my computer, your animation has no easing, footplacement, realism and you need to try and move every joint on the stickmans body, even if it's a tiny bit and un-noticeable. I suggest you look ar Darrens tut. That might explain what easing is.

Keep practising. :P

:EDIT: BTW. Low begginer. Lol i forgot to rank you.

Sorry, but I have to agree with X Chris. Also, piece of advice: Don't comment on Darren's tut. But, your animation is slow, choppy, and stiff.

You shouldn't record with Hypercam because the animation comes out shit. Lol, you just have to save the Gif. with the right settings.

I use pivot 2 and my settings are:

Merge: No
Crop: Yes
Palette: No
Frame Delay (1/100th Second): 2
Shrink frames by 1/6

These are my settings so you could try those unless you you pivot 3, then i don't have a clue. :3

Not too bad. It looks like you have alot of the basics down, so you're off to a good start. The movements of your characters seem unrealistic. My suggestion is to practice some of these moves yourself (this seems weird, but you'd be surprised how well it works) and recreate it in your animations. This is how I try and make my animations, I focus on the movements. And to get them right, you may need to just perform them yourself.

Keep at man, everyone has to start somewhere, and this is just the start of your journey!
