So today I had been trying to refine and better my animation for this shot but as you can tell it don't look too good or very natural. So here's my notes for me to bear in mind when I remake this scene tomorrow.
Think of animating in 3 beats, so for Doris her 3 beats are 1) when she's apart from Fred empathising with him, 2) the moment she decides to put her arm round him and 3) when she actually is hugging him. Depending on these is where I put the weight of the pose to keep the character's balance. Fred's 3 beats are 1) looking around anxiously, 2) looking to Doris for comfort and 3) submitting to her nudge to hug. I start with these poses which I start sculpting from the middle of the character's body, when I have the body right the facial animation goes over that and I make the inbetween poses.
