Beautiful hand drawn animation. With a line quality and frame by framework that is outstanding. Obvious to have inspired so many animators out there, for example the first one that comes to mind is Joanna Quinn. The boiling is perfect, which is something I really need to work on since my animation test, what I noticed was that there is quite a lot of repetition in frames, I think considering the time and the amount of shots I have, might be something I should consider, however I would hate to lose charm from my project doing this. But it's something I could take on board, I don't things should repeat more than three times. I'll just have to go with it and work my socks off to get it done.

What I also noticed is the voice recording sounds like it's been done in a bathroom yet it doesn't deter because the visuals are so strong, so I'm hoping that once my project is paired together the slight plate on my voice recordings won't be as noticeable.

I'm so worried about animating horses so I think his work will also be useful for this, I might also have to get the animator's survival kit out, because I tried doing a horsey walk cycle, and I feel a flat one just isn't acceptable for a third year animation student, so in the storyboard I've really tried to push edgy angles but I'm actually dreading doing them, I think they may take several attempts and some serious R&D.
