This was my first exploration of body mechanics in animation, very much based upon the Richard Williams basic human model coupled with 1940s noir. The assignment actually only needed to focus on the body mechanics of running and jumping that were relatively new to me back then. Hence immediate losing of clothes. Overcoat would've been hell to animate haha. A nice future challenge perhaps (see the other two clips to see my other ideas).
Noir man high tails it to the car
apparently an even earlier thumnail version...
