With the animation assignment quickly approaching, I've given a lot of thought to what I wish to execute. After reading through some of my old writing, I came across a piece of narrative recalling all of the things I missed from my childhood. I thought it would be interesting to tell that narrative through the use of animation. What inspired me to do this idea was the monochromatic blue cartoon of the smoking beatnicks posted on Blackboard.
Because I have a penchant for things that are dark and grim, I want to make the style of animation very dark and eerie, almost like the Salad Fingers animations:

Asymmetrical eyes, hunched posture, and grim colour scheme will inspire the animation and will mix childhood sweetness with my teenage love of gore.
I suppose the one thing that will be crucial for me to learn and execute is how to do a motion path and how to create consistent animations and maintaining a sense of continuity with how I draw characters.
