After finishing the after effects workshop I wasn't happy with the outcome as I thought the movement wasn't realistic and out of context so I decided to improve the animation. I didn't want to start over completely as I was happy with the illustration that I had drawn; so instead I adapted the illustration that I already had by separating the arms from the body. I felt that it was a good decision to do this so that it allowed my character more movement when it came to animating her. Also I added music to the piece to put the character in context and so that she's actually dancing to something. The end result a big improvement in my eyes as the character actually looks like she is dancing with lights flashing on the wall behind her. But I'll let you be the judge, below is my improved version.......
