I think the drawings are quite good and funny, but you need to make her weight more. I think you could make her slower and make her spend more time on the ground. Add some drawings of her after the mid-air one and some frames making contact with the ground bending her leg before she crouches. Also, I would make an exaggerated overshoot and settle when she hits the ground.

English is not my main language but I hope I've been helpful somehow.

Reminds me a little of Joanna Quinn, both in terms of style and content.

--> Check out some of her work <-- Maybe she'll be inspirational for you.

That was a great film all around. Thankyou.
The piece i posted is similar in a rough raw way. She's an outstanding draftswoman. Looks like we both have a bit of Plympton as well.

Needs ALOT more breakdowns.

...Heh. I hear that all the time about my own stuff.

But seriously, it's hard to see what's actually happening. It's way too fast.

At LEAST make your frames into two's instead of ones. That'll make it a little better. But it'd still needs some breakdowns on particular areas, from what I can see.

I like the drawings, though.

Agree with Psycho. Your drawings are really good and really expressive and the concept is a funny one, but the lack of frames makes it too quick and choppy to enjoy. Take some time and work in some inbetweens and have some of those motions cushion in and out a little more.

Thanks yes Definitely more break downs are needed. I'm no expert but from what i've read 2s are standard.
1's are great for many faster items and other items in some cases (all due respect to R.William -were not worthy-) but not necessary for great animations. I beleive Tex avery even had some areas in 3s and some even longer foe some gags. And that 3's for slowmotion work fairly well and sometime very well.

But i'd need to test all this to prove it to myself or anyone else really.
thanks

thanks,

But yep It's needs more inbetweens to be sure. and slow ins and outs or maybe even more snap and over extentions, hmmm

thanks guys
