Bad Example of Timing




This animation, Western Town is a cartoon that contains poor timing. The movements and the footsteps are all out of place and don't work at all with the music. There is a random poorly timed cut to another character and then out of nowhere comes the climax of the scene which happens suddenly with no anticipation, build up or well timed action at all. The frames appear to make the animation all wrong and even though you can tell what is going on, it feels boring and lifeless as it lacks the realism of a properly timed animation. Therefore I think that the timing in this animation is off and this creates a strongly mechanical feel for the cartoon. 

There was an issue with the video upload and so I had to upload the edited video to Youtube before putting it here.

I do not own this video.
