Quick overview/changes explained.
So looking back over my animation I decided it was too 'simple' and so I've added extra little animations to the characters inbetween. This meant I had to change the design of one of the bulls, but only a small fraction, the tail, so that it could wiggle as it ran - I got this idea from the existing bullfight animation previously stated in an older post. I also added a background, and other small details reactions/actions. I think even though they're only little bits it's really began to make my animation come to life, and I find even though it's very time consuming, the end result it very pleasing and I enjoy the process. If I had drawn the animation frame by frame, my patience would've warn thin and I wouldn't of been able to create extra things as I'd be busy drawing rather than actually animating and I prefer to see development rather than wait till last minute to combine it together. It would be far too tedious for me to draw each frame out and not know if it was going as I wanted it to. This way, using illustrator, I can move part of the character, then move it back, or add to/take bits away, and still have it intact for if I need it again. It also allows me to use colour, which I think is always nice to have in a cartoon. I did some work experience at the end of last year as my own little side thing to uni, which gave me experience in Illustrator that I've found useful in this project.
