-Audio: The Princess And The Frog, 'Tiana contemplates kissing Naveen'

This day I decided to read through the first part of the brief to get a better understanding on what the first task was, As I was doing Shot animation, I could see we were tasked 3 different exercises.

-Bouncing Ball
-Pendulum swing
-Sidestep

# data[].attributes.body
To make a start on the exercises, I decided to begin with the Pendulum swing exercise. I thought doing this would've been easier, to begin with, because the motion for the swing was already fresh in my head.

Later found out after attempting it again after two years gap was actually difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
-Ball was too floating.
-The ball needed to begin to lose momentum towards the end of the bounce.
-The bounces were not sharp enough.

# data[].attributes.body
-A massive step which meant that the character would fall over if attempted in real life.
-The first foot does not move at a humanly average speed.

First response to the brief,  The stitched layout:

# data[].attributes.body
-I decided to pose my characters instead of starting my block-out. I did this because I wanted to get a general idea of what I would like my layout to look like.
- I had done 4 shots instead of 3.

# data[].attributes.body
From Ollie's feedback;
- I needed to get rid of the 3rd and 4th shots and keep it to a minimum of 3 shots.
-For my last shot transition to a establishing
-In my establishing shot, make the frame tighter.
-In identifying the rule of 3, utilize that in my close up shot.

With the help from a reliable class mate, I was able to shoot my new references for the specific shot I needed

By re-shooting a new reference video. I began to redo some poses that I thought worked better with dialogue and looked appealing for the different shots.

# data[].attributes.body
-Move the books and mugs, so that there is enough negative space on 'Orange Ray's' side of the camera.
-Avoid dancing with the dialogue, repetitive movements.
-Fix some of the awkward hand movements in some of the poses.
-Work on the walk cycle a little bit more, focus on working on the belt line and the shift in weight.
-Too much weight in the eyes being shown in the 2nd shot.

After watching my last feedback video from Ollie, I started to apply and polish the final parts of my animation. I did change quite a few poses, so that it could flow better with the audio. I also worked on polishing the lip-sync for my final animation
