Subject: package men kicking eac other's butt :p
I like the basic idea. Your choreography nicely done and I definitely get the sense that these guys are hitting stuff. I have one suggestion regarding the second clip. The black guy does a jumping/spinning kick with his left leg, and hits the white guy - who goes flying. The camera follows the white guy as he flies back. I'm not sure what the cause is, but it looks like the forward momentum of the black guy just stops at the kick and then he lands either right below where he impacted the white guy or maybe even a little bit behind the hit. Obviously real physics would have him continue his forward momentum as he landed after the kick. I think part of what causes that illusion is that the camera whips so fast to follow the white guy flying that it bypasses the black guy's landing. If you move your camera a bit to the left (from a viewers perspective) and rotate it more to the right (clockwise on the Y-axis) to keep the action centered you may be able to eliminate this optical illusion. BTW the "tighty whitey" briefs and high athletic socks are a nice touch. There are plenty of women warriors out there fighting in their underwear. It's nice to see someone give equal treatment to males. Not that I like watching men in underwear... [grin]
Before they made me they broke the mold!

I think that you are right, but it's not really caused by the camera move. I think he will need to show more "momentum" because, after taking a look, he indeed almost stops in place, heh.

Hello people. This is an animation that I've been working on. The characters are package men downloaded from Rigging 101 (a Maya rigs page).Kinda sadistic but it's also funny :p
