Webpage 2 - DESIGNING YOUR ANIMATION

Helpsheet here

OK! Your research has really helped PK Image to understand the different types of animation. They feel that using Flash animation would be best.

You now need to design your animation, create a storyboard and a report.

Your storyboard needs to show the actual frames of your animation and what you are going to draw in them. It should look like a series of comic strips showing your early ideas.

Your report should explain in words your ideas and which audience the work is aimed for.

1. Research online and find out what a storyboard is

2. There are some links below to sites that might help, and there is a video.
