Purpose for Research Project
My goal is to use the story created by students to develop a concept for a full-length animated film. I have noticed that writers of children's films tend to write the kinds of stories that they want to hear, so I am hoping to prove that a compelling film can be made from the genuine ideas of children themselves.
