Content
This is a project-based unit that brings together the tools and skills, developed from earlier units and integrates these elements at a more refined and professional level. Students develop and refine a pitch for an animation that they conceive from its beginning. They spend time researching and developing the concept, creating the soundtrack and storyboards, and then integrate these elements into an animatic which they then pitch. There is the option in this unit to then continue and create the animated production in a sequential unit.
