CoP Animation

My animation shows the progression of iconic Jessica Rabbit from her overly-sexualised body shape to a more human, realistic shape. I think that having the example images at either side of the walk cycle help to show this idea, but as the animation is not perfectly smooth, I think that the walk cycle itself doesn't show it too well. Some colour might also have helped, both on the animation and on the end/start slides. I am still happy with this though, and it was fun to see how different it is animating the extremely stylised version to the realistic version.

Animation Ideas

- Focus on gender

- Genderbending?
- Infographic?
- Concept art?
- Character animation - movements = less stereotyped?
- Females in the usual roles of males?

Oversexualised villains etc to less?
- take the most sexist stuff
- chars as accurate ages
Snow White = 8 yr,
Rapunzel = 12
Pocahontas - 10 -12 http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/johnsmith.htm

Rapunzel and Pocahontas, more accurate age

Genderswap characters to show emphasis on ratio of male action main characters to female; what could I do with this?

characters designs arguably borderline sexist; change to more acceptable/realistic standards? Batgirl is the first character I think of for this, but Jessica Rabbit is probably the most well known for these kinds of proportions. Would show the difference between men's ideal and an actual woman.
