Kid animation critique

Hello. I'd like some critiques on this animation. This is also my first character rig in Maya.

Cool piece. I left some notes on syncsketch. I think the audio should be moved forward about 2 frames. The mouth shapes and some of the acting lag behind the audio. I also think it'd be helpful to distinguish the 2 characters a big more in pose/energy level/etc so there isn't any mushy time between the 2 where the audience isn't sure who they are looking at. Good luck!

I wanted to say thank you for the great critique. I finally have had some time to tweak some of this project. I tried to offset some of the twinning.  I plan on using a small camera movement to help distinguish more between the 2 characters and I have added a bit more energy to the first character to also help. I moved the audio a few frames. Let me know what you think.
