Making a story which started with one medium and finished with a different one aided in me becoming more accomplished in anticipation and follow through as principles of animation. The first video applies anticipation through the wave pushing the character's boat, which I think worked well. I also applied it subtly through him blinking, looking around, and then looking down before the camera zooms out revealing the monster. This could have been improved on because the pauses where I have the character looking around look ever so slightly jolted.
The second video applies the principle of follow through with various aspects of the animation, such as the boat sinking, the characters hat floating and the movement of the creature. Using 2D stop motion animation worked well for this one and I found it easier to visualise what was going to happen with this medium.
