This week, I booked my meeting with my Project Manager for March 5
th
, in this I have to do a pitch about my project.
I started my project this week by researching popular kids shows from around the 50’s and those at this present day and why. There were a few iconic ones I found such as Tom
and Jerry, Regular Show etc. I also researched the environments from the 50’s and in the future.
I also had to research Cell Animations to see what it is and how it works, since I am doing a Cell Animation for my FMP.
Finally, from my research I collected earlier in that week, I started thinking of story ideas that could blend both classic and modern cartoon show elements together.

This week, I continued story planning and developed a Story Board, coming up with a Sci-Fi Sitcom that involves Time-Travel; I also researched shows which were popular from
surveys that I made last week like Tom and Jerry, Ed Edd n Eddy, Adventure Time etc.
I did my pitch this week as well, explaining what I plan to do with my FMP, what I have been researching, what I have found etc. I talked about the environment of both the past
and the future, even technology from the past and future and the cartoons made past and present.
