Lift
I tried to make the lift appear as if the character was struggling with the weight. I imagined how it feels to lift a heavy box and tried to weight the animation accordingly. The drawing style itself is in no way realistic in the sense that the figure grows and shrinks a bit but I kind of liked it because, to me, it seemed to make the box appear even heavier because his body contracts as he struggles to lift it a bit.
Jump
I have named this little guy "Mr. Potato" because he looks a bit like one. I kind of like the shape of his body for the jumping sequence because I could contract and stretch the body simply and this made the jump look less static, to me.
Both the jump and the lift are very unrealistic and minimalist in the sense that I just drew them as simple shapes with very little detail. However, I kind of like the effect that I got from that in the way that I could easily convey a weight to the bodies by stretching an contracting shapes.
