It's a pretty unique idea, I really enjoyed it and some obvious effort was put into making each frame.
Keep it up, I hope to see more from you and further improvement of your drawing skills.

thanks, ill be having another video out in about a week or two

Something funky happens to the audio halfway through, I hope you fix this and re-submit

Decent video, good concept and though the animation looks super sketchy, that style really shines when it comes to wide shots and stills.
Keep it up, but please shorten your outro. It takes up half the video, and if this is an edit made for YouTube annotations, please consider cutting it down a bit here.

The animation was neat, don't get me wrong.
I'm starting to see this a lot more and more though where people submit these 2-4 second clips to the "Movie Portal" This would be a far more appropriate submission for the Art Portal if you export it as a gif, especially since you're not using any sound.
This is a animated "channel banner" not a movie.
please blam and re-upload.

Decent sprite work, though it is extremely annoyingly loud, both the music and sfx.
I'm sure future viewers would a appreciate you leveling the audio and submitting a re-upload.

Okay, so I have no idea what's going on. I feel like you're watching a video or listening to a podcast no one else can hear and talking back to it. I assume there's two people talking? Maybe? It's very difficult to tell if there's two, let alone which one is talking. There's not really a lot of motion or anything going on either, just a lot of not English on screen.

But one thing that gets me "I saw this video and I just had to show you". Only because the drawing style changed made me question whether or not you made the clip that comes after it or you actually took it from somewhere.
That last bit is just a concern and was not reflected in your review score.

Thanks for the tips, I'm still working out on how to do things I mean this is only my second video so I'm still learning. But ya thanks I totally agree with you I thought it would be better than this but oh well you learn from your mistakes. Oh and I did make the clip, I made all of it.Thanks for the feed back. :)

I do understand that the animation was rendered in 12fps(I wanna make that clear), but the characters do move incredibly slow. Try taking inspiration from the outside world and people-watch. See how normal people move briskly transitioning from one movement to the next, every part starting and stopping at different times and intervals.
Not only is the motion incredibly slow but also it never stops. There's no point in which the stick figures are still, every part is in constant transition to the next stage. This results in an arm slowly adjusting for 5 seconds from one stance to another in a linear path, when in reality the arm would move after the leg has already begun its shift, and still finish moving more quickly because it carries less weight on it. The arm may also rubber-band back a bit once it hits its mark to give a little bounce(which is also realistic to a sudden stop).
The camera in contrast is very quick and gets a little sickening.

Besides animation, the sfx sound as though they were recorded in an air duct, which I know you can do better because your original music is in a much higher quality. Try playing with mixed tones and drumkits in your programs instead of going online for a cheap free download. Sound design is crucial to feel.

Lastly there's a really fuzzy aesthetic over the entire video; which unintentionally(I'm sure) looks like you rendered a 240p video and scaled upward.

Overall you just need more practice working on shorter animations to develop skills in creating more realistic motion before you start getting into more complex 3D work.

Metapixelatron responds:

I will try to mix some better quality sounds. I am making more realistic actions for my new skeleton. As for the fuzzy aspect, I notice it too. I don't know what it could be, but I believe it might be caused by the upload. I say this, because it was rendered in 480p and the original mp4 video looks a lot better. Next time I will do it in 480p and see if it looks better.
EDIT: I meant to say "next time I will do it in 720p" lol sorry. XD

I make stuff; sometimes for money, but always for fun.
