Animation so far:

This is the animation as it stands. The two walks are established and the main turing point, the owner begin pulled by the dog, is established but is not entirely finished. When the owner gets pulled I want to make the head snap back before he is completely pulled forward by the ball. The right arm still needs to be animated as he moves and the left needs to move up and down slightly in time with the ball's movement.

When the owner comes to a stop I have got him to the position where he has stopped moving. Form there I need to get him to rise up into a standing resting position. In my storyboards I planned to have some POV shots of the owner looking at the ball before it shots off in another direction. I have decided instead to keep it all in one shot as the camera work will be more simplistic allowing me to focus more on the quality of animation.
