This is the first half of an animated short, or animatic made by me. It is essentially an affectionate parody of children's stories and fairytales in general. It originally starts as a children's story, but with all of the illustrations I had done I was worried I wouldn't be able to use them all, then the idea of making an animated short hit me and I fell in love with the idea. Special thanks to reesfx.co.uk/ for their free sound effects and thanks to my friend Meep for providing the voice of the main character.
