The finished animation!

Well, here it is. The finished animation. 

There are still a few things I'd like to sort out if I had more time, like his feet dancing around a bit too much and the fact that his arm doesn't look quite attached, but for the deadline which is today, this is finished.

PROJECT UPDATE #2

Today I had to present my "finished" animation. It's almost there, enough for the presentation and I got some feedback. I need to add shadows to place the character more in the scene. It was also suggested that I make the lobster king more angry and show the rock that he throws maybe on the castle somewhere- destroying part of it. I also need to sort out my characters feet in the first scene as they dance around a bit, but I knew that already. The sound also needs to be adjusted and toned down a little in parts. 

Everyone in my class agreed that the emotions and expressions were well done as was the weighting of the second rock.

If I had the time I would go back and reference more movements to get a more realistic movement in the characters.

PROJECT UPDATE

I have now done the backgrounds, and a skeleton/stick man armature for the character and added the face for each frame. all that is left to do is the Lobster King at the end and the body of the boy in each scene. Not long to go now!
