Thanks a lot and please reply!!

I liked it, but I thought the acting could have been a tad better. Animation was good though.

And yes it was skipping a few frames for me, while it didn't ruin it, it was kind of annoying.

I enjoyed the animation- I liked the humor and thought it was short and snappy- it didn't wander too much and didn't lose momentum (except the bit about the meetings but still that part was fairly short)

Ok, I uploaded it in a different format and it plays MUCH better now.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

The new link is here (I updated this up top as well):

So, you guys like the animation? I'm thinking of switching to this style permanently. It's faster and imo it looks better then having everything flailing around at once.

I can only watch this without sound on this computer unfortunately. What part of FL you in spooze?

Around the Orlando-ish area.

Cool that where I am. Glad to see there's a fellow AS animator nearby. I wish there was some 2-d animation courses offered at Full Sail or anywhere nearby but the only thing offered is 3-d animation and stuff for people who want to "make" their own video games.

I was going to enter the smoke-free contest but don't have time now. Good luck- you deserve to win over all the other people that just sat in front of a webcam- I know you'd put that new computer to some use!
