Looping my background in after effects. I found this quite easy, using tabs under the edges of the canvas to help as a guideline for the looping. I am not overly keen on the one very thin panel in the wall where it loops.
I started off using the 3D stop motion walk cycle as a base for Carlson, as the critique made it look like he was stomping, and that was how I wanted Carlson to walk. Despite, I don't think this works. He needs to be more hunched, with his head low to exaggerate his furrowed brow. He also needs to swing his body more so he looks less like a block,
I think the exaggeration in this helps to assert Carlson's dominant character. I also think that the cartoonist style of the walk helps to show the child like imagination of Jay and how he probably imagines Carlson and his emotions like in a cartoon such as Looney Tunes.
