Animation comparison

Just a small Survey Video where any help would be very much appreciated!

Questions:

Q1: Do You have any background or experience with character animation? (Yes/ No)

Q2: If Yes, Please explain...

Q3: Ignore everything other than the movement of the character, Focus solely on the animation only. Out of the two, which one looks more human & lifelike? ( Animation 1 / Animation 2 / Can't Tell ).

Q4: Why did you choose that animation?

Please post answers below in a comment :D


Thanks guys! massive help!
PS. sorry about crappy sound!

q2 Character Animation Masters

q3 Anim 2

q4 The weight of the character on take-off and landing seem more realistic. Also the timing of the whole action feels more correct.

Q2. n/a

Q3. animation 1, looks more realistic as its not perfect and it moves to keep its balance. it takes the same course of action that a human would take.

No

N/A

Animation 2

Looked more stable stance wise when coming out of kick. Thought 1 looked slightly robotic and less fluid. Really close call tho.
