I'd take out the christ, it doesn't really show much animation anyway as it's both dark and very minimal, and it might offend some potential employers - it doesn't offend me at all, but from what I've heard people in the US are pretty anal about stuff like that. As for the rest, it kicks ass. Why you prefer working on…
Sharing your reel might give us a better idea of how both the content and presentation can be improved. Go pester some modelers for awesome looking static normal mapped characters. They look great, are cheap to render, nobody is going to aniamte them and that shows you can animate within the market's demands. There's…
Hey everyone I have been trying to get a job as an Animator in games for a while now but no success, i think it has to do with the animations in my reel not being game oriented, although i haven't got any feedback from companies that i applied, but i am pretty sure that's what it is . Anyway, can you guys give me some tips…
SkullboX - I was thinking that, asking someone that has a nice game model if i could animate it. I have been searching for good free game models and have not found any, would be great to do that.

Quick cycles on low- to mid-poly characters and items are probably ideal. An interesting character model or two with some interesting walk/run/attack/death animations would probably be fine. That said, I'm not an animator myself, but it seems to me that you want to target your reel at the field you want to work in. There'd…
SkullboX - As soon as i get new animations, i will remove those 2 shots. Yes, i understand, religion is a very sensitive topic and i see your point, it could definitely get in the way when it comes to get hired if someone gets offended by it. I was thinking game cinematics as well, there some so many great work out there…
[ QUOTE ] Luis, you have some great animations there! I like the "cholesterol" scene. What's the audio from? The office worker scene is great, too. Reminds me of every day at my job. :P About the Christ scene, if you leave it in, I would remove the Christ part at the end in and leave the first part, but add the audio back…
