Not bad. Okay. If this is your first animation like you said, then it's amazing that you could animate something AT LEAST mediocre. But you went beyond and made something genuinely good. Short, but good.
Reviews for "My first diamond"
I like your use of camera angles, and the small amount of animation that's there works well enough to tell the story. However, this is still a little short. I would suggest creating more suspense by adding a few more shots of the character mining the diamond block. Perhaps the look on his face could suggest that he's hungrily waiting for the diamonds to pop out, which will make his "FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--" more justified and believable to the audience. Besides, I'm pretty sure diamond takes longer to mine with a stone pickaxe. Also, some non-Minecraft players might not understand that the stone pickaxe was the cause of this, so maybe a second scene could be added, where the player finds another diamond vain, mines it with his iron pickaxe, and the diamond falls into the lava. Just a suggestion.
All in all, this is pretty decent for your first animation. Keep practicing!
Needs more jokes added in to make it worth wild to watch. not bad, but needs a few more laughing points.
Pretty good for your first animation. But could be longer and have a bit more jokes. Other then that pretty good! Hope to see more!
I've seen worse initial animations, but at least this one had side effects and an actual understandable JOKE.
Overall, an understandable start. Keep learnin' bro. :)
