After today the relationships between the different classes that we have been attending became more entrenched. The way we were asked to critique the work emphasized on the animation related qualities that the work posessed. Some of the simplest drawings that were reviewed showed they translated movement and emotion more convincingly than some of the more 'artistic' peices.
As for my own work; next time i think i would have displayed a more movement rich peice of art, one that showed tention and movement and emphasized where the weight is in the pose. This can also be said for the 2D and 3D amimation. The poses that the model held for us can be translated in the simplest inanimate objects such as tea pots and other cutlery; as the animators at Disney have proved. So we can also use these objects to translate movement, emotion and weight.

This video has had a bit of work done to it in regards to the volume of the big character; but at the same time i neglected to keep the small character the same size. On the upside; it is only when he is being 'told off' that he shrinks. This is just down to bad practice; even though you could argue that it fortifies the narrative.
