lady is a tramp

I've been collecting a few ideas together of the movenments and actions of the character, shes a jazz singer after all so shes going to have to sway. I found alot reference videos from the previous duet's Tony bennet has been in including Tony Bennett & Natalie Cole,Frank Sinatra & Ella Fitzgerald, both were live performances which i think works better for sketching poses and planning the timing of the animation. I watched the video to the song too for "lady is a tramp", Lady gaga had alot interesting poses but as the video was pre recorded end edited so the poses didn't seem as "natural" as the movement and actions from live performances.

Theres a fair few hand gestures invovled, including tapping, clicking, nodding heads and a general "bounce" occuring in the full body.  Secondary action of the arms swing front to back as Ella rotating her body to the mo but the movements are still quite small. Taps, claps and movement are all in sync with the beat of the music.
