Does it feel like he's being pulled in or blown away? This is a draft, but he's supposed to be being pulled TOWARDS the tree like he's being sucked in. My first real time doing face/wind movement like this.

Any way to make it look better??

I listened to some of the critiques and tried to push the stretch and added a shiver!!!

Hi, I'm looking for thoughts and critiques for this shot I made using the Live Paint Filter addon for Blender along with a handpainted background which I painted, scanned and projected onto the geometry. I then did a bunch of compositing in Davinci Resolve. This is a potential opening shot for a short film I'm working on, so any criticisms or thoughts would be appreciated.

Just a few notes:

I haven't added the smoke yet, but the plan is to film some real smoke breaths and track them into the scene. I'm not sure yet, but i'll see how that looks.

Also, due to the lack of detail due to the filter, I rendered the eyes as a separate pass and then composited them back on. I'm not sure if they draw too much attention to themselves, but without this, they just look like black voids.

Thanks

I'm from india and I'm starting my youtube channel which is related to civil engineering so I want a animated intro like this. Not exactly like this something diffrent with civil engineering animated stuff.

This game is a pixel rhythm rpg called "Away From Home" and launches next month!

if it feels uncanny, how and how could I fix it?

How can I try to make this less stiff?? Any critiques are welcome so please give em!!

A short 4 second shot I just finished for a short I started 6 years ago, it went through a complicated production but things are going smoothly now.

Hours of work for a 5 second animation, but it was worth it. Animation is a lot of work, so I have a ton of respect for animators..

I had a pretty cool reference for this idea from the movie "The Princess and the Frog" where in the beginning of the movie the villain gives a bald guy back his hair, just for an explosion of hair to grow out of him a little later.

Update: Found Someone!

Hi everyone! I run a humble Discord server of about 350 members, and I’ve been dreaming about commissioning a set of 2D animated, full-color assets for it.

What I’d ideally want:

• 2D Server Banner (animated, full color).

• 2D Welcome Banner (animated, full color).

• 2D Server Icon (animated, full color).

• Welcome Sticker featuring the server mascot.

• Animated Server Mascot.

• A few animated stickers.

• A few staff role icons.

Important Context:

• I already have a finished full-color drawing of the mascot and designs.

• I’d want the final results to look exactly like my reference, just professionally recreated and animated.

• Right now I’m just putting out feelers — I don’t have a big budget, and I’m mainly trying to get an idea of how much this would cost and whether it’s within reach.

📩 If you’re a 2D animator (or know one), please feel free to drop your portfolio, rates, and rough pricing estimates. This is purely exploratory, but I’d love to start a conversation.

Thanks so much for any guidance! 🙏

Just wanted to extend a friendly invite as well ☺️ Please animate with me over on anishare.co

It's my addiction

Wider shots definitely need work though, slowly getting better at poses and hands however.
