Gear Change - WIP

We had to animate a character showing two different thoughts with a good transition pose. The transition moment is what the teachers were looking for. They call it the Light Switch moment.

I didn't get much of a critique this week, as the teachers liked the first part but wanted me to take off the second part after he does the jump. That part is still blocking, as I never got myself to work on that part after the initial blocking stage. Click here to download the large size version if anyone wants it. Comments or Critiques are welcome.

i've no idea if it's good or not. it's hard to like one's own work after having worked on it for long and watching it over and over.

but...i'm glad you liked it.

after sometime, maybe i'll like it too..

Hey this is a good one. I really love the blend. Well, at our academy in Bangalore, two of your works are famous

1. The baby lifting
2. The animation where the guy sneaks on a paper

really cool :)
