I have two of my first animations (one stop motion, one 3D) posted on my animation blogspot. Any feedback is definitely welcome whether it is here or on my blog. Thanks in advance!

I only watched the volleyball clip and it is ok for a start. Your piece shows that you have a good basic command of your application. You should think about doing exercises with simple shapes to work out any physics issues that my come up. I am thinking that you would have more time animating your piece if you keep the character simple like no features, no cloths, one color.
That is my two cents.
I like the Lego short. I love Lego so I might be a bit biased.
You have the ease-in and ease-out backwards on the volleyball. The ball should get faster as it heads to the ground. It should also accelerate away from the tiger as he hits it. As it is now, it's slow to move away THEN accelerates, and thats wrong.
