not that id expect anybody to care, but this is my final for animation studio I. 11 weeks of hard work, sweat, blood, tears, and a lack of sleep, put into this humble 23 second animation. its not perfect, and i plan on changing a lot before i put this in my portfolio when i finally get around to graduating. please enjoy.

A good start. Can see why you're not satisfied with it and glad that you're planning on retouching it. My ex-boyfriend used to be into this sort of thing so I kinda understand how difficult this stuff is. I hope you land a future job at Pixar
So what's the story, first cactus aims like a bitch and then gets owned by the other one in one shot?
Not bad.
It seemed to me like the sound was a bit off, though, with the gun shots.
thats pretty much itOriginally Posted by Terracosmo
and the sound is a bit off, i edited the video a few hours before class

Kind of reminds me of that scene in Pulp Fiction.
Um... it's not bad. Maybe you should add in an extra second or two of him falling, though, because the animation itself might be confusing (I had to watch it twice to understand what exactly was going on).
it is a little confusing now and in the future i plan on adding stray bullets, a smoking effect to the gun, the death animation that was giving me so much trouble, and improving the textures on the character models. its hard to understand that they are cactus because i didnt add a hair modifier cause the project wouldnt have rendered in time.

Which app did you use?

3d studio max

I liked the video personally, besides the sound being a little off I am sure with more practice and time with it you could create something along the lines of a pixar short film.
Ah ok....thats what I used to use as well....
My first comment would be to always bezier your animation keyframes. Any time you have a sudden stop in the motion, it stands out like a sore thumb.

you do animation? cool. i would love to see your work

I felt that the scene where they walked away from each other was weird, i think it's becuase thier steps were totally symertrical.
Well, I was more into high-poly modeling than animating, and I haven't touch 3D in a year now, since I've started my full-time career as a Flash/Flex developer, but I've got some stuff up if you want to check them out:

wow. cool stuff man. im trying to improve my modeling skills as well, but my teachers (and my computer) prefer low poly modles

Thanks.
Yeah, low poly models definitely help you learn the important stuff real well, and they take their own degree of skill too, since you can't hide a bad point placement in a pool of polygons.
As far as high-poly modeling goes...this is the best tutorial I've ever found:
