My Animation

After losing my previous animation, I have tried several times to recreate my animation, but everytime I do I honestly just want to cry. The amount of work I put into that... it's ridiculous.
It's very difficult too, without all the layers. If I had the layers, I would be able to recreate something similar, but there are so many, and in my animation I had a lot of the top layers hidden.
I know your suggest Ms Makin was just to do something similar to what Christie did - just make the hair grow or something - but in my eyes that would be failing. It would not be a piece of work to be proud of. I don't really see the point of just making something move. I specifically placed my piece within a social context to make a statement specifically related to that. My animation followed a similar metamorphosing concept, and if and when I attempt another animation on any avatar (since now I'll have to make a whole new one) I refuse to simply manoeuvre some pictures and add some tweens, because that shows no higher order thinking and, well, what's the point?
