Have you ever wondered how the pictures in these movies come to life? Let’s watch a video that answers that question!
Watch: How does animation work?
Question 1:
What is the most important thing when watching a cartoon or animated movie?
- The characters are funny and make you laugh
- The story is exciting and takes you on an adventure
- The animations are well-drawn and smooth, so the characters move well
- Or something else
Question 2:
Imagine you are an animator creating a cartoon about a brave young dragon named Flare who wants to find the legendary Crystal Flame to save his village. As you bring Flare’s adventure to life, what part of being an animator do you think you would enjoy the most?
- Making characters come to life and show feelings like happiness or sadness
- Picking all the colors for each part of the story, like bright colors for a sunny day
- Writing the storyline and deciding what happens next in the adventure
- Something else
Question 3:
If you could add one magical or fun thing to Flare’s world to make it even more exciting, what would it be?
- A secret portal to another dimension
- A group of funny, talking sidekicks to help Flare on the journey
- A hidden map that only appears under a special moonlight
- Something else
In conclusion, I would like you to consider this question: If you could create your own animated movie, what would it be about, and what message or feeling would you want people to take away from it?
