Learning aim B: Design digital animation products
Animation Proposal

Before you start your project you need to produce a proposal. This will include information about:

  • Your choice of content (importance of taking regular exercise, the dangers of smoking, the benefits of eating a balanced diet - or all three!)
  • The requirements of the brief (understand the different features and purposes of animations, create a short animation, of at least 30 seconds, which promotes an aspect of healthy living to young people)
  • Your chosen audience and the purpose of the animation
  • You will also need to think about the images you intend to use and the font size/style/colour
