I agree on hte comments on the second one, you gotta work on how natural the jump looks movement-wise. Also you should maybe try to not just move a single frame on hte jump because then it looks sorta silly.

It looked like he's flying on the second one... Try starting the acceleration right after he/(you?) jumps. Or better yet, stretch the jump so that a short jump looks more like a high one instead of a guy being dragged by the hand in castle defense

Great effects!! *Applauds*

Especially the first one, it's perfect. ^^
For the second one, I agree that you could make it even more natural. But still, it's really good! ;)

Thank you a lot for the comments!  :)

Yes, the jump was really bad, but for a first time, I think it is okay  :D

Here is another one I made... this really looks natural (as much it can be, because it´s a teleport  ;D

Lol, nice tactic... you completely covered the screen with effects so that the background change wont be noticeable... brilliant  :o

No, the background didn´t change, because I didn´t touch the cam. The best tactic to do this, is to hit rec in the cam, do everything, and then stop. And after that, in the computer you cut the pieces that you want  ;)

But by looking close enough you can see that the position of the trees slightly changed because of the wind... like it did on the high jump. (yes I wasn't talking about the camera moving that time)
