For my thought process throughout this animation I went with a layered approach where I'd rough in different actions to feel out the animation as I went along this incredibly long shot. That's why it's bare in the initial stages until I was confident in my approach and liking the actions before tying things down into the nitty gritty of principles and mechanics.

While I could have requested rig fixes or reposed to address some of the issues I ran into like I would in a TV studio environment, I instead wanted to practice an alternative solution that'd let me keep what was working while also improving what was already there. It was a breath of fresh air being able to linger on this shot longer than normal TV schedules allow and really have fun with it!
