Animated Narrative week 7- Yiran Pan s3829794

This week, I start to thinking with an advance. I choose this theme from week 6’s practice. I start with the key words advance and old house, then I make a mind map at first.   

After mind map, my thinking about the project.

This idea was based on my W6 weekly practice. The original idea was come from a children novel I read in my childhood. And for this project, I think with more detail,and change the story and character.  I remember my grandparent’s old house, it is a broken, traditional wooden and earth house, my grandparents put their old furniture and tools in this house. In a village, a old house like that always inspire people’s imagination.

Kids and advance was a normal topic for animate,novel and film. After thinking about these work, I decide to reference “gravity falls”(from Disney) and set the stage at the village. “gravity falls” was about twins’ summer holiday advance. I feel familiar with this beginning, because in my childhood, I has similar experience with them, come back grandparents home, go to the fields and hills... the only regret for me that is I did not enter my grandparent’s old house. I feel curious but this house looks gloomy, so I can’t go in.
