Sliding Seaweed

Our last assignment in ANIM I was to create a piece of seaweed sliding across the page, settling, then sliding back to its starting position, and then getting it to loop. It was somewhat of a tedious assignment, but overall one that I enjoyed. The main principles that we looked at were the drag on an object when it goes from rest to in motion, as well as the concept of it briefly remaining in motion and coming to rest (which we would refer to as follow through and overlapping action). Here is the piece that I did. It really is an important concept and I will hopefully show you how to apply it within our next assignment that I'm working on.
