Animated Narratives - Week 1

The theme of the first week was about the story. We talked about what the story is and why people tell it. We studied animations together and practiced how we could generate our own ideas. It's good that we focused on that because we've gotten used to this kind of thinking phase.

My premise was "A world where you can get everyone's bad thoughts for money. When you get these thoughts you have to deal with them". In the story, a person had a superpower of being able to take people's emotions out of them. In this way, it can take people's emotions from them and prevent them from feeling emotions such as sadness, fear or anxiety. In return, he takes money from people and advances his life in this way.

In my own premise, we can actually think of the person with these special powers as anyone in this world. Even if people are not aware of it, they can pass or cure the sadness and worries of others by talking about it. Although they don't make any money out of it (aside from psychologists), helping people is actually pretty easy. All it takes is one step to help. The rest will come automatically.

In fact, a similar idea was handled in the Cloud animation. The cloud drawn there represented people's negative and evil thoughts. And he showed us in animation how these thoughts can disappear. Likewise, we have seen that even the things that are good for us can cause these thoughts and feelings from time to time.
