Animated Collage WIP
Here is the still collage(changes may be made)! After the curtains open, the plan is to include a few looping frames of grasping or beckoning with the hands on stage.

The 3D camera will move slightly to highlight each aspect of the collage, moving forward towards the moon at the end.

The Animator's Survival Kit - Walk Cycles
Each person walks differently, and the way they walk is just as distinctive as their face. The passing positions of an animated walk cycle can be altered to completely change the feel and personality of a walk style.
