Animated Narratives - Week 12

This week we review all the elements we learned this semester, including time, lighting, movement, etc.

The premise I choose is “There is an angler who is competing with another angler”, it is my week 2 premise, and I want to do some development based on the previous work. This work examined the theme of the character.

By writing the script, I expand this premise into an animation story. The story is two anglers and how they try to become a winner in a fishing competition.

Similar work is the 3D animation Oktapodi, which is a linear animation that focuses on the conflict between three main characters.

For this animation story, I hope it could demonstrate the conflict between two characters and add some dynamic and exaggerated character movement into the plot, like the cartoon Tom and Jerry. However, after I finished the script, I think I should add more plot to the two characters’ conflict. Most of the plots are about one character trying to capture more fish, it leads the story just focus on one character rather than the conflict between them.
