[ Tom ] - Animation Ideas Update

After the meeting that we had last week, we found out that most other groups had also decided to create a 3D map of Essex. We also came to the conclusion that our idea had become too ambitious for the limited amount of time that we have to complete our animation.

For these reasons, we have decided to go back to our original idea. Instead of having a character guide us around areas of Essex by walking along a map, we will take some of our chosen locations, and simply transition them together. So for example, having the animation start off at a Golf course where our character would hit the ball. The ball would then land in a field where we would pan out to show the location of the lawn mower race. This is just 1 of several possibilities for our transitions.

We believe that this would be a much more effective way of guiding the audience around Essex, and we believe it will seperate us from those groups who have decided to stick with the map idea.
