P2. HOW DOES YOUR PRODUCT FIT INTO CURRENT TRENDS

Last challenge is to assess your animation in terms of current trends in the industry.

1) Remember we did an Idea Deconstruction for an existing product? It should have look at bit like this.

Well do one of those for your own product - thinking about all the possible influences that have helped your creative process.


2) Write a paragraph on how you feel your animation will fit into the current marketplace making references to the animation style, type of characters, themes, narrative of your product compared to existing cartoons and animation.

Make a judgement on whether your animation fits in with the current trends or attempts to offer something different.

3) Decide what channel(s) you would like to show your product and at what time (take into account target audience). If your product isn't a show then decide another way to distribute (festivals, online, cinema etc)
