Limerick Exercise - Cutout Video


We were shown a video of a limerick created by students who once attended Long Road and were told that we would be crating our own stop animation video. There were 10 limericks to choose from and we were also in groups of around four, each group selected the limerick they liked then had to figure out how the would portray it, we chose the following limerick:

"There was a young lady of Niger
Who smiled as she rod on a tiger;
They returned from the ride
With the lady inside,
And the smile on the face of the tiger."

Our group decided it would be best to allocate people to do specific roles so we could spread out all of the work and people could do what they were best at. I was chosen to do the drawing of the tiger and the lady as the group felt I was the best drawer; Doug and Holly created the background and researched in depth about what jungles and rainforests looked like and incorporated them together; Scott was chosen to create the story board and had to brainstorm with the three of us to decide what we would do frame by frame.

  1. Thank you for another great article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a perfect way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I am on the look for such information.
