Krokodil - frame by frame animation

For this project, I created a cute character for a children's book: The crocodile who is afraid of water. But in the course of the story he overcomes his fear and changes his mind about it. The three illustrations show different scenes of this development. I animated the first scene in a frame by frame animation to emphasize the crocodile's fear and to bring the character to life.
