He's really going at it huh?

My hand's feeling better so what way to test how I'm feeling than a good round of re-animating this entire thing! Hopefully I didn't take it too far!

Next shot will include a better view of the action!

The butt that was promised! I love the A B C for the frames, is that how it's done for animation?

To answer your question in an abridged way, it’s one method of keeping notes for pose to pose animation. This way each extreme pose/important pose is labeled a letter (could be a number, it don’t matter. It could be labeled by a mark, or not at all!) But the way I did it, I planned out which poses are vital after looking at reference, then drew those first. Afterwards I added a drawing in-between each of those drawings. “In-betweening” so to speak. One could also call it “Breakdown” as I am clarifying/breaking down how one gets from one pose to the next. The reason I’m interchangeable with these phrases is because this is a rather short animation, so I could just leave this here. In a longer animation like a speaking animation, you could notice the difference between the breakdown and the inbetween stage. The latter being used to make motion smooth.
