First off, big thanks to 
I didn't get a chance to compete in AC2012's Fursuit dance competition, so I got a chance to make my own dance video. Had a few issues compiling the movie so I apologize for parts with flicker.

Alright! Over all I really enjoyed the dance, you've definitely have better moves than me! However, I found I didn't really get into the video until 1:31. Until this point, your dancing was rather static, this could be because of how a fursuit masks your subtle movements, so I would suggest either exaggerating your movements, or be more active in general.
Secondly, I found that your pauses were far too long, at some points it actually looked like you had stopped dancing completely. It would be nice to see more fluidity in your dancing, but I know this takes quite a bit of experience.
You have great arm movements, but I would suggest working on fullbody/leg movements :3 I would also like to see you use more of the dance floor. It would be really impressive to see you get down lower, or use the areas to your left and right more.
I totally understand that this is your first video, and it's going to take a few tries to get it perfect! You're doing an amazing job, and the fact that you were able to do this (in a serious way, unlike my dancing) really shows how much potential you have!
Keep up the amazing work <3

Got some awesome moves in there! =D
However, I hate to be a dick, but I do have some tips. You make some nice hand gestures and do some cool things with your arms, but then you just do the move and it's done and then you move onto the next one. Try to connect some of the moves more. Like at one point, you do a wave with one arm, pull back, and do it again with the other arm. Find some way to connect those together to make it flow more.
This is also something I've noticed from watching competitions and such. You've got some nice moves, but nothing really that makes the viewer go 'Wow!' If you want to win, you gotta throw something out there. Something impressive that'll really make the audience cheer!
Aside from that, I hope to see more of your work! Keep up the awesome stuff! And also... avoid the low shots if you can with cinematography. It cuts off some of the nice footwork you do as well! Keep practicing as well. The more you go over those moves, the sharper they can be. Granted, fuzzy paws take away from some of the hand stuff you do... but it still looks nice! Can't wait to see you improve on your next one! =^.^=

Not being a dick at all. I do appreciate critique, comments, and tips. It's all a learning experience, and i Know I'm not winning any competitions with this, but I just really wanted something out there.
Yeah the super fuzzy paws make any sort of hand definition almost invisible. I hope to keep it up, improve, and get better at all these things :)

I was in a shitty mood today because of third grade teasing - not quite "You're a poo-poo head!" "Oh yeah, we'll you're stinky and you love Timmy" but close enough. Solution: Watch this clip a couple of times.
The sheen from your eyes at the beginning makes them stand out well, and the scarf (I forget the right term yet again) matches your colours well. I can't really talk about the dance moves as I once got thrown out of a night club because my moves were so bad that two different bouncers thought I was too drunk (I was sober as I was the designated driver). With my fashion sense I probably also shouldn't be commenting on the "scarf" either, but then this comment would be woefully short.
I especially liked the dandelion seeds blowing through at 1:45 (they're not gnats shutup!shutup!shutup!) they added a nice touch.
I hope to see more, like from Rainfurrest next week mate
