Artist's Comments

~Simon-Elric asked me to make a short animation, so after a long winded debate, I consented and promised to animate a dude kicking a bucket. This took me about 70 minutes to finish.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the term, "Kick the Bucket" is an idiom for "to die"

Ah, it's not very funny now that I watch it.

Everything by me

Very well done.

But not a very positive thing.

That is one nasty-looking bucket.

Nitpick. The character exits cam R and then enters cam L. If the intent is to make it seem as though he's walked away and then run back to kick the bucket, it might flow better to have him exit L and enter L. You could do this easily by flipping the cut previous to the kick.

Your animation itself is, as usual, pretty slick. Nothing to pick at there.
