My idea was started with the sound down under.

It’s actually kind of like the Australian national anthem. So I chose the woman in the lyrics because she had some classic 80s look, then I created the character followed the description of the woman in the song

“met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast”

There is also a video about this song, most of the time I am inspired by the style of this video.

I decided to draw every angle so she could rotate. I learned a lot in this process.Unlike illustration, animation limits me from adding too much unnecessary details,
