One of the classes I took this semester was Puppet Making for Stop Motion. I chose to make my character Tari into a puppet, so this is what I spent the semester making. I'm not 100% happy with her, but only because I know I could have done better if I had more time. It's hard to prioritize among four classes all requiring creative projects...
And this is the short test animation I did at the end of the semester to show that my puppet is animatable.
I did a short walk test as well, but it's a little fast, as it was made last minute.
