Quincy Drops A Coconut On Jeramias Heed!

This is my second scene for my animation. In this scene, yet again jeramia is sleeping peacefully underneath the palm tree, only to be awoken by a falling coconut which Quincy the crab has deviously dropped on his head from above. The most difficult aspects of this scene, for starters was moving Quincy the crab up the tree, trying to get the correct angle and timing it right so that the shadow undeneath him would dissapear in time was difficult but a few attempts fiddling with the rotation and positioning helped solve the dilema. Another issue i was having, was how to correctly move Charlie the monkey down to the ground to pick up the coconut, i needed him to bend and reach down to pick it up, but the keyframes i had currently placed were making certain parts of his body stay still and move backwards when i was trying to bend his body, which just didnt look right, so i had to reposition them and start from scratch, whilst movinf the shadow at the same time, until it looked correct. The blood was something i had changed aswell, to begin with for this scene and the previous scene where the pelican throws up on the bear, i had been using blood i had designed and made myself, but i had found some already animated blood sequence which i decided to replace the original blood with. This looked alot better in my opinion and was less time consuming for animating as it was already done for me.
