Hey! Thanks for the reply and input, yea I completely agree with all your points.
This was actually my first Minecraft Animation since about 5 years, so was a bit rusty and I wanted to get out there on YouTube again.
I agree, the dance I thought was quite difficult to make especially with the timing of the song, was my first ever dance animation as well.
The facial expressions I did not really have an idea how to fix but after reading what you said I will take that into account in the future.
The characters blinking was actually part of the Minecraft Rig I used by Anishwij, it automatically blinks and the head squashing makes it sort of cartoony I think hahaha.
The water took SO LONG to render, even longer than trees which usually took the longest. Another point is that the leaves did not move which they usually do in Minecraft Animations today, I did make this Animation on a Laptop not PC so I had to sacrifice some quality or else I could never finish this Animation as it became super laggy. I think the water is worth it because if you see real life Raja Ampat waters it is sort of the main thing, but yea I was rendering literally 30 days just for this 4 minute animation and I agree it looks too realistic for Minecraft.
The water at 4:10 was super noisy because I had time-constraints haha, I really wanted to upload this on 4th April because I set myself a target, also because Ampat means 4 in Indonesian, I wanted to upload this on 4/4 if you get what I mean. By time-constraints I mean Alex's hair was actually glitched out in that ending scene and I had to increase contrast in order to make them both silhouettes to avoid the hair being visible, so my fault I guess for rushing the animation.
Also Note, this animation was made using 30 FPS, which usually should be 24 FPS I think most film makers use that, it would have saved a LOT of time as well probably 20% of the render time.
Once again, thank you for your input, definitely appreciate it :D
