Melody Happy Swim.Szekeres

This is Melody in one of many scenes that I animated her in for the sequel to Disney's The Little Mermaid, TLM2: Return to the Sea. I was given open footage length to animate her swimming into frame then past camera. So that means, rather then animating her to a length of time as was directed by the storyboard (as would usually be the case), I could animate her for whatever length I felt the scene needed to make the animation look good. So I made Melody swim into the scene with some playful excitement over recently been changed into a mermaid. I'll be posting my animation drawings in my scraps here.
