   The last actual project that we have made was our choice but with a catch. We were given a list of lines that would have to be incorporated with the animation giving a sense of being lost. We could add more dialogue if we did so wish.

  • "this doesn't look right"
  • "Do you even know where we are going?"
  • "Don't worry about it"
  • "I have a keen sense of direction."
  • "Did you see that?"
  • "Whats happening?"
  • "We need to move. Now"
  • "We're almost there"
     For my animation i chose to create it in a 2d format, using Harmony. My original idea was supposed to be an elderly couple in Hell who are trying to make it to the buffet. they never do because every time they reach what they think is the buffet its just a cardboard cut-out. For some reason I never did go through with that idea. Instead, I went with an idea about how an adventurer gets lost on one of his quests with his annoying follower.
    My protagonist quite distinctly resembles Link from the Legend of Zelda games.
 He is the one who is leading the exploration but doesn't know at all where he is going. His follower, Imp, is constantly arguing with him about where they are. The whole idea that an adventurer being lost on one of his adventures fits the scenario.
   To fulfill, or at least attempt to, my animation I need the principles. Motion, character design, voice acting and style of art. With my characters i have attempted to add a personality in them with my style of drawing them while also being simplistic.
   While working on the project. I specifically like how I made my lip sync for the characters. It was by far the most fluid movement that i have ever created.
