I think it's unfair to tell a guy not to do stick animation. Stick animation is a good base to start from to learn movement and animation principles. If its his first animation then let him go for it.

It's a good start Greg-SKA. You could do with illustrating weight alot more, do that by using Ease in and Ease out animation as well as Anticipation and Follow through animation. If you are unsure by what I mean, go to google and search for the Animation Principles, there's loads of them than can really help you out.

For stick animation, the website SFDT.com, is completely centred around stick animation. They have stick animation tutorials in their HELP section to guide you to becoming a better stick animator.

Good Luck!

Stick animation is good for beginners, but realize you shouldn't stick to this forever.

Anyways, like what was said earlier, it was really choppy, so raise the FPS to 24 or something along those lines.

Pretty good for a first time ever.
Alot of people work better with the brush tool, so try messing around with that.

^ Pun un-intentional?
Anyways, it is a good... start?
However, it is incredibly short, the animation seems choppy, and the guy seems floppy.
By that I mean, the jumps seem odd.
Some of the animation seems to play back twice, and the pausing for some text or whatever seems out of place, especially when up on a ring or something he's holding on to.
But I think the main thing is, you need to put more frames in, making him do more.

Are you referencing me using "Alot" as one word or what?
I don't get what you're trying to say here.

Do you know what a pun is? If not look it up then re-read your first sentence.

Oh, woops.
I forgot to cut out the end.
The pun I meant was: "Stick animation is good for beginners, but realize you shouldn't stick to this forever."

Yeah you should just stay with sticks to get the hang of things then move onto bigger and better things, staying at stickfigures doesnt do you any favors. :D
