three examples of the happy tree friends style of movement for a monkey type character.

Things i noticed:
-the tail does not move all the time it stays still and changes only when there is a change of expression or emotion by the character, also when it simply showing motion example when the monkey flys through the air.
-when there is a super close up things get quite detailed slightly to the point its disturbing.
-
(1) i will reference this for my scene where the banana pod breaks off.
(2) his tail representing the forward motion of the monkey flying through the air.

In this scene bhuddist monkey screams and as his emotions changeon his face the tail animates as each face switches to the next.
1)
2)
two examples of background motion and imagery
-slightly simplified
-thin white speed lines
-moving backgrounds 

use this same technique to highlight the importance and value of the banana pod in my story
with the character reaching up to the bananas using a low angle shot and the ray of  "holy" light.
