"Take Me Home" animation review

Hello and welcome to my first post on this account. Today i will be reviewing the animated short film "Take Me Home" by The CGBros. The story is about a dog trying to get adopted. A little girl comes into the adoption clinic and meets the four legged protagonist.  When the girls attention moves to a

poodle the main dog attempts to impress the girl. This continues until the girl eventually decides to adopt the poodle, but when she reaches for it, it attempts to bite her. In the end the girl adopts the main dog. You can find the full video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_Rx4qZ8QRc 

It was made using 3d models, this gives it a slightly more realistic look but with this film they did a good job of stylizing the models so they don't look hyper realistic.


The animation is smooth and has a good flow of motion. Although i found that some of the girls motions seemed robotic especially at 5:53.

It told the story of a dog looking for a home and family that will accept him. This was told in a way that did not need dialogue and relied on facial expressions and body posture. I am still learning how to animate 3d models and I wish I could make this level of fur and hair textures.

 I do have the capabilities of making the 3d models themselves but I still need to improve greatly. The creators did an excellent job at making and texturing the models. The animation itself was good, but I feel like it could be improved.
