Thanks!

Hadn't heard the term offsetting in that context before, I've always called it breaking up action. Anyway, thanks for the feedback. Got a week left to make them really good!

I do film myself before animating but I tend to only use it as a guide to block it out and possibly to get some ideas for subtleties later on.

Thanks for looking on my site, I should really update it at some point as the shorts on there are nowhere near the quality of my current stuff!
