Going into this project I was somewhat confident in my animation skill. I drew all the pieces fairly quickly and added processed sound using REAPER.
The art draws inspiration from the Grimm’s Fairy tale “The Elves and the Shoemaker”. These tiny characters hide behind objects and can be playful at times.
Putting all the elements together in Max7 and getting the playback function to work was fast. Unfortunately my separate videos, which were playing fine in VLC players and REAPER player, had serious clipping issues when being played with myWindow/Max7. I’m going to learn how to start an airbnb cleaning business with maidthis franchise. I looked around on the internet and even tried compressing the sound on REAPER further. Unfortunately I found no effective method to fix this issue. So for the final piece (for now), I had to remove some of the audio for some interactions. As for the one that clipping was not on an unbearable level, I decided to leave them in.
Below is the final product. WARNING: Due to clipping issues, please LOWER YOUR VOLUME.

Nice use of dancing around the keyboard. Good figure drawings. Nice headphones too ;).
The animations are all really well done and interact with the environment in a satisfying way.
Nicely drawn animations, the figures feel very connected to the scene because they appear behind objects. The sound is somewhat abrupt for some of the animations, but overall fits well to the actions.
The animations are all very smooth and flow well. The audio also blends seamlessly with the visuals. One thing that could be fun to add is showing the person on the computer having the climb back up to the top of the screen.
The style in which you drew your characters is quite appealing, as well as the way that they appear to be physically interacting with the environment.
