Part 7) and 8) of OGR

Written information for the OGR:

7) For the overall structure of our animation we hope to have random and fast paced scenarios, rather Like the way ASDF present there YouTube animations. Each scene will involve our main character “Fashion Man.” We want our opening scene to really show Fashion Man’s personality, character and intentions as a superhero. Then maybe have a small introduction of Fashion Man explaining who he is, or at least who he thinks he is! After this, the scenarios will play immediately one after the other.


8) Set/Background Ideas: We want our animation to be set in the modern day.  The set will consist of various environments that include: a main street, a high rise building and a park. The scenes will be simple in their design and suggest environments rather than contain detailed, busy scenes.
