Link: To The Rescue!

After a long few months of work, I finally completed my Link animation! 
Link is casually enjoying the island, eventually stumbling upon some precious silver rupees, but he then hears a worrisome noise. What is it, a monster? Link decides to investigate. He runs to the edge of the island, whistles for his bird, and prepares to fly toward the source of the sound. Link is ready for rescue!

WIP Critique- Character Animation

While considering both my perspective and the comments I received from other students, I think that my cycle animations and my choice of colors are the strongest aspects of my animation this far. To begin, the quality of my walk and jump cycles is strong. My animations are smooth and realistic, and they portray the confidence Link is supposed to portray at the beginning of the animation. In addition, my color choice was also a strong aspect which helped develop my setting and plot.

On the other hand, I feel that both my perspective and the comments I received emphasize how I can make the plot and my intention clear

Link is to an extent innocent, yet I want to reinforce his strength and reliability. He is the one Skyloft is increasingly relying on for their safety, so I want to not only portray his immaturity but also his importance and his authority. As a result, I will implement bright colors into his a
