For my final project, I wanted to create a scene similar to the park and street - but with a fairground and circus theme.

The initial idea for my final animation was going to be a beach scene.
When drawing the beach scene, I based the style on Blackpool beach. I actually enjoyed the idea of having a rollercoaster for the scene to reference pleasure beach but felt like it had to be a separate piece of animation.
I'm glad I changed the idea, as I found my inspiration from fairgrounds and the circus.

Summary to Animation:
The target audience for this animation are kids. With the audience in mind I wanted to create a child friendly animation, with lots of things going on.
The fairground purposely has many different narratives happening, to increase the replay value. The platforms I upload to often replay until they are scrolled passed - e.g. Instagram and TikTok. By having a strong replay value it can increase popularity due to the social media algorithms.
To make it more kid friendly, I wanted to make an activity sheet which would relate to the animation:
The activity sheet gives kids questions to focus them when watching the animation but also can be used a colouring sheet.
In the future I want to create colouring sheets for children based on the world I've created, but also this could be another way of implementing my animations in the future.
