Character Animation Assignment

Create an original 45 - 60 second advertisement animation.
(Video contest entries: ~90sec. MAX 120 sec)
Theme: Every worker shall take all necessary precautions to ensure
their own health and safety and that of any other person in the workplace.
Required: Use the phrase: What Happened Then?
Suggestions as discussed in class:
1. The focus needs to be on one Main character!
2. 24 frames per second.
3. Using different scenes (and perspectives) looks better than one continuous
shot (and will get you better marks).
4. Using different animation techniques looks better (and will get you better
marks).
