Final Animation so far..

This is my final animation so far. My animation takes place on the Lyme Regis beach where Mary Anning spent most of her working life. She spent all of that time with her dog "Tray" so I thought it was incredibly fitting to use the dog in the animation as well. I wanted the main attraction to be that Tray sniffs out a bone and starts digging. Using the comical aspect that Mary Anning is a fossil hunter which basically means she also digs up bones. I want the audience to think that this bone is an ordinary bone until the camera pans down to show its a skeleton from the Jurrasic period. And a famous fossil that Mary Anning is most associated with in her career the Ichthyosaur. 

 If possible I will add close up shots of Annings and her dogs face. Unfortunately, as my facilities for this is limited I will struggle with this aspect.

On the other hand, the other man looks quite angry and disappointed, his arms crossed- a very negative gesture. His feet are pointing outwards as he's not ready to talk.  This drawing at the bus stop is my least ...
