Limerick animation task

Our latest assignment was to create a cut-out animation on Istopmotion. As we were introduced to the task we were shown a previous students cut-out animation for their music video. We were to create an animation of the same style but for a limerick. Here is the students music video we were shown.

We were also in groups for this task and each group was given a limerick. The limerick our group was given was

“There once was a man from Peru,

Who wanted to live in a shoe,

A size 6 was too small,

So he went to the mall,

And found a size 12 with a view”

As we had to make our own sets/backgrounds, the first step was to plan them, the two setting we chose were the mans house and the mall. We intended the animation to show that he couldn’t fit in the first shoe, we then showed him buying a new one from the mall and sitting in that.

Here is me and another member of the group planning the storyboard.
