Glad you like it.

Does the animation show you that the wings were ejected individually?

I want to do all the motions in one take without inserting scenes to highlight wings popping out, but I wonder if the audience can understand what's going on...

It sure does. I've noticed that after staring at it for some times. But the first time I saw it, I just noticed that something happened against his expectation and so he lost balance. And after I looked at it looping for several times, I noticed how each wing just pushed him. And you did a great job!

I kinda think it is a bad idea to focus on the wings in special scenes just to drag the audience attention that it popped against his will, unless of course it is an important part of the story that audience have to understand to catch up.

The scene itself is very understandable. Some people might not catch it, but it is very clear that something went wrong, which I thing is enough to let watchers understand that he is not very good at using those wings.

Hope you find this helpful. And keep up the great work

Thank you for the detailed input.

I agree with everything you said. I guess I will have to find a balance to bring enough attention and avoid dragging...

Thanks again!
