APPLIED ANIMATION
Weekly 1 Brainstorming Ideas


Brainstorming:
The three of us decided to brainstorm ideas:

Created plot points based around a story of a fox being shown the brutality of the fur trade and fashion industry. We described our stories to each other, which was a good idea because it helped express how each of us planned for character design, environmental features and the overall plot.

We all had several unique stories so we formulated a plot by choosing our best and sectioning out our parts then linking them together for the final story. 
Suzy had the idea of a fox running through a forest and as he progressed the environment became more brutal and humanised, with captured fox's in cages and the tree line becoming a fashion industry warehouse floor. 
I had the idea of the fox being captured and thrown into a cage and being made to live there the rest of his life and experiencing the brutality of the fur trade, bred in captivity, and animals being killed and skinned for a fashion accessory. 
Ro had the idea of a captive fox expressing the horrors of the fur trade by either metaphorically or through illusion of the fox's mind transforming into a skinned fox and experiencing a graphic and torturing human world.

These individual stories work quite well together because we had planned basic idea's before hand which fed nicely into the plot points when we would transition between our styles of animation.
