My mentor’s major crit was to spice it up by adding more movement to the piece. Previously, he was trying to move the TV from the same side, just changing his hand positions. Now, he starts from one side of the TV and works his way around. I didn’t have time to add the jump to the back (try to wedge between the wall and the TV). Err, time as in “Frames”. I definitely like the roll in better now. It’s a lot sharper and quicker.
I also stretched him out in a couple poses to really push him far out there. I could should push it more, I think.

Just awesome. The new jump in/roll to behind the TV and the move around really does punch up the animation and give it more spice. I know you’re busy, busy, busy with the day job but keep it up D. You’re inspiring my own work and leaving me in awe (and the animation dust – damn you)!!!

Great! I cracked up when his legs shook. Very cool.
