Sort of. ;) Maybe my choreography leaves something to be desired...

Looks legit ,)

Just kiding, looks very nice except for the moment at 0:04 and the feets which are not quite aligned with the reflection.

She moves to the music, that's better than I can do. Looks good!

It looks like she left her friends behind. Clearly, they are no friends of mine.

On point though, this was great. The way the clothing moved was really cool. How did you do that? Are the clothes a separate layer altogether?

Looks great to me, very fluid moves, good work on how she dances very smoothly and moves with emotion. I love among other things the hands over the face thing, the little hip wiggle she does and how the clothes move around on her figure and flap around as well. Excellent job!

What's next, a "moonwalk?" :)

P.S. How long did this take you to make? (I would imagine quite a while)

I don't really know for sure. The animation itself was done in an evening. But a lot of my silly clips serve as rig testing and adjusting. I would say more time is spent on adjusting the rig and figuring out what it can do than officially keying the movements. My goal I guess is to have versatile characters and practice having them do all kinds of things, so that actual sequences I need I can create relatively quickly.

Umm, sure. Why not? :D

That is an unbelievably good likeness of Michael Jackson - skin color, outfit, movements, everything! Maybe darken the hair a bit though.

These look awesome, especially the secondary animation. How are you handling the different colored pleats on the skirt? Are you using point animation? They look really convincing.
