Method

Experimentation (Animation 2 Part 2)

Before I start with the animation an experiment of method needs to be done, in this experiment I used rotoscoping digitally

Capturing a video using my phone I then changed the the video into frames

Using AI Illustrator tracing the movements using the frames I recreated the video

Similar to rotoscoping but instead of a lightbox here I used digitally traced rotoscoping

Sequence/Storyline

Opening sequence would be Tin man appearing and introducing himself, and then a kid trying to cross a road. Tin man saw this and moves towards him and starts to teach him how to cross the road the proper way. Showing him to look left and right for cars before crossing and use the traffic lights and zebra crossings. Then he move on to the driver that is coming up the road during that time and tells him things that what would have happened if he ignores the road safety and shows the consequences. Finally he goes up to both of them and tells them the moral of the story
