Okay so after the feedback session I've gone ahead and made some improvements to the lip sync. For starters I've added more pronunciation in the beginning of the sentence "You keep telling yourself....", before it seemed a little slow and didn't catch all the words, now it looks more in sync with "you" and "keep" having separate mouth shapes. I also included changes in the lighting and the background to make the scene more interesting, such as blinds and the detectives shadow.
I added the a character behind the camera to make the scene more believeable, the spot llight creates the shadow fo a mysterious figure on the wall. This technique has been used in a few of the film noir films when two characters are involved in a scene. The blinds give the scene more of a dark sinister atmosphere and set the scene.
I don't think the shadow works as effectively with the animation, it seems to take away the audiences attention from the character, also it seems to disengage the audience with the character who was looking directly at them in the last shot. I'll have to make note of this as well as the other errrors .
