Here's the animation I presented in class. It still needs a lot of work. There's a couple of sequences where Miss Muffet looks like a robot when she walks. These are left over from some rough blocking animation. Also the skin weights on her dress and the cow need some work. Whenever you see a bowl, imagine it is filled with delicious, cool, glistening cottage cheese.
