references

References, so helpful. I began my animation with a reference picture of a couch, since my animation kind of revolved around the couch for the first few seconds. Couches are harder to draw than they look! 
The next reference picture I used was of a basic floor lamp, I added a floor lamp into my animation just for some thing in the back ground. I didn't want to simple of a lamp so I went with this one.            
The next reference I used quite a bit to see different mouth shapes in animals, I originally was going to do some thing more complex than I origiinaly did but again time was an issue. But I did end up using the top and 2 row quite a bit (sorry for weird cropped picture, doing this on my phone)
I also used another mouth chart to get a better rang of mouth shapes, I didn't use this chart as much as I used the other one
Another reference I used was of course "the animators survival kit" book. This book has always been super helpful from small arm movements to fluent mouth movements, this book is great.
