Smooth

wow this was some really smooth "MOTION" you have here I like the flow as the wings flap, the backround was notbad the clouds looked a tad bit stale though the sun was nice and a nice effect so while this did seem bland the animation of the bird was welldone very smooth indeed.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More flucff in the clouds more random movments in the clouds even different parts of one cloud.

~X~

The animation is smooth, but a little fast.
The color and video quality seemed bland and muted.

My opinion on the eagle, is it would look more realistic if the flapping wings were slowed down by half a second or a little more. Maybe add a few more in-between frames for the wings.

The backgrounds bothered me a little bit because they did not seem as detailed or as realistic looking as the eagle and looked like clip art.

Another tip is to make the mountain and clouds in the background move twice as fast but at the same pace.

Overall, Its nice and keep animating.

Wow, that is very helpful!

my main take away is:
a few more in-betweens for the flap part of the wing.

my main problem with the background is that i don't know how to draw a good sky. The mountains i did quickly from looking at alan becker's tutorial.

oh yeah, and i don't know how to improve video quality and color.
what i do is i export it directly from flash CC.
for some reason swiel makes the quality of my animations worst.
i have watched alan becker's video on how he exports his animations, but i don't think it works for CC.
If you could link me a video on how you achieve maximum video quality, that would be much appreciated

Pretty decent job. Keep it up

Thank you!

A little jittery, but overall it looks good.

awesomea900 responds:

thank you! i will try to make it less jittery. (like i can see it jumps up and down a little and the feathers aren't right)
