Our idea

The narrative starts with a lonely unicorn, eating grass by itself in a field, the story then develops into the unicorn travelling the world to find its owner and ends up finding him so he is no longer lonely. we are going to draw our animations out on large A3 paper, the unicorn will also be drawn, we are going to draw two of him on with his legs in one position and the next in the opposite, to show movement. This way it will be time efficient. We only have 2 characters in our animation, the unicorn called charlie and it owner who comes at a later stage. The genre of our animation is going to be adventure, as the unicorn travels around the world but in a very simplistic way, to be acceptable for children viewing. The themes of our animation are going to be love and loss as this is what Charlie goes through.
We are going to draw everything we are using in our animation, for example the backgrounds and characters. Charlie is going to gallop through different places such as through a stables, a desert, a forest, across an ocean, the starry sky and the North pole. As far as props go we are going to be using glitter giving the impression of star dust and believable magic, again for children viewing. We have decided to certify our animation as a U, as there is no unsuitable content and/or conflict such as violence involved in the making of our animation.
The camera will be placed directly above the animation as we take each photo so the setting and characters are viewed easily. We will also involve close up to get a closer view of the gallops and facial expressions.
We will involve music as a starting point of the animation to grab peoples attention, as well as this we will also have Maddie recorded being the narrator, telling the story speaking to children drawing them in even more.
One thing we need to be careful of is the time restriction given to us so we need to be organised and know what we are doing at all times. another thing we need to be careful of is the lighting changing from lesson to lesson as we create our animation so we need to try our best to make sure the lighting is similiar each time we film.
