Today, my group and I started to create our sets and characters. The main set was completed along with the characters. There was some problems when I was trying to make the wolf character, which was made out of black card and cardboard, one of the problems was trying to make it stand up, which was pretty much impossible. The solution I came up with was to stick the wolf to the background with removable limbs so it was easier to animate. Another problem was the scissors used didn't cut through the cardboard effectively enough, causing rips and tears. I then used a Stanley knife so the cut was more effective and straight, giving it a smoother outcome.

The next task was to record the voice over, Kieran was our narrator and recorded his lines in a superb professional standard; adding to the dark effect and the suspense of our animation.  He recorded the short back story of the main characters and the sound effects such as the gasp. It was difficult because the group on many occasions starting laughing, causing it to drag on.
