In the sequence of frames depicting a mouse walking, which principle has the animator followed when drawing the mouse’s tail each frame?

A. Anticipation
B. Exaggeration
C. Overlapping
D. Secondary Action

C: Overlapping

Explanation:

Anticipation movement prepares the audience for a major action the character is about to perform, such as, starting to run, jump or change expression

Exaggeration is not extreme distortion of a drawing or extremely broad, violent action all the time

Overlapping is when the character changes direction while his clothes/hair continues forward.

Secondary Action adds enriches to the main action and more dimension to the character animation, supplementing and/or re-enforcing the main action
