After exploring animation and sound, our final project was to
create our own animation which portrays a contemporary issue of our choice. My
group decided our chosen issue would be bullying.

Set
The set will consist of a hill scenery card, yellow card to
continue the path into the forefront of the picture. There will be a tree made
of clay in the background. We will need a light.
The Issue and Storyline
Our aim of the story is to convey that victims should speak
up and gain the confidence to stand up to bullies. To represents the growth of
confidence and self belief we will use 3 versions of the character all
different sizes.
It will start off with Timmy playing with a ball a happy until
the bullies appear from behind the trees. After approaching Timmy the
bullies steal his ball and go off to play with it in the background.
The adult will approach Timmy after watching the exchange and
seeing Timmy upset. The adult will remind Timmy that it's okay to speak out and
give him the confidence. When confronting the bullies to get his ball back, to
represent Timmy growth in confidence, his size will change.
