As you can see, we really wanted to keep the animation bright and fun, to fit with the purpose of why we were creating it. So therefore, throwing in some cat ears and cheesy grins didn't go amiss!
It was a good job we were able to look at each other's progress, because this rally helped me towards the end when I began to hit a bit of a wall when it came to animating over the bodies. After seeing Emma'e work on the Reading animation, I saw that she had animated quite a lot of just patterns traveling up and down Max's body. I thought this worked really well, and this was definitely a case of simplicity going a lot further and working really well! So I took this into consideration when animating the end of the Crowd animation.
Here is still of Emma's animation, which I found really inspiring!
Below is another still, which is from the Crowd animation. I decided to go down a route similar to the one Emma went down, because not only was it slightly faster than the clothing I animated at the start, but also worked really well as something that gradually decreased back to nothing by the end!
The important thing to remember was to have all the different sections of animation on their own layer, to avoid confusion, and to have better editing ability!
