Benvolio: Character Analysis (Romeo and Juliet)

Today I analyse the character of Benvolio in 'Romeo and Juliet'. The source referenced (with permission from the author) is: Levenson, Jill, in ‘Echoes Inhabit a Garden: The Narratives of Romeo and Juliet’, found in ‘Shakespeare Survey: Volume 53, Shakespeare and Narrative’ (Cambridge University Press, 2000).
The animation was created using Procreate on the iPad. This app has a function allowing you to essentially trace a photo using an Apple Pencil, which is how I completed the drawing. I used an image of Benvolio from the 1996 version of 'Romeo and Juliet'.
