Trevor the Clown - Dancin in the Rain
Poor Trevor, he got caught out in the rain. With a song in his heart, he will make the best of it!

Your animation is getting better. I like the concept, but the framing in a lot of shots was off. For example, at 0:26, Trevor went to the far left of the screen, almost to the point of getting cut off, and he stayed there until the end of the shot. I'm not saying that you should keep him in the middle all the time, it's just that he was a bit too far over. I recommend that you look into the Rule of thirds. 
Keep it up!

I will look into that and thanks for the advice. On that shot I was being lazy and in order to make him do the flip I just held the umbrella with my fingers instead of masking it out. I had not yet masked anything and was not sure how time consuming it would be and so tried to do as many practical effects as I could. I was not happy with that part of the scene, nor the transition earlier in making it look like Trevor had more sidewalk to walk on by changing the angle, then moving him back down and changing it again, but with the lamp post in the frame. Still learning transitions, which makes me scared to use them.
