Narrator: we all know Exercise has its benefits... But did you know that it not only makes you healthier but happier too?

 Wow! Lets get exercising! What kind of boring exercises Can we do then?

 Well who says that exercising is boring?
 You can exercise with you friends by joining a club such as football, dancing or Swimming. (background changes to football pitch, dance studio and Swimming pool)

 Or just by going out to the park and playing games like Tag and having competitions such as a running race.

 Well that i can do  I’ll Race you!  3,2,1 GO!!!!
 (he begins to run off)

 Run, Jump And swim to a better you. (then she runs after him)

  My health and fitness animation is targeted at young teenagers, there are a few complex subjects within the animation specifically aimed at them. As well as the subjects, the characters with in the animation are around the teenagers age range of 13-15 meaning they will take what other people their age say into consideration rather than an adult (even if they are only cartoon characters).
This animation can be aimed at sporty teenagers as well as the lazier ones, since it give information about what exercise truly does to you, this is a benefit to both types of teenagers.

  The purpose of the animation is to make young teenagers (13-15) aware of the benefits of exercise. By teaching them about this when they are younger it gets them into better habits as they grow up. It will show them how being healthy keeps them in the right frame of mind, with friendships, schoolwork and most of all within themselves.

 Alternative ideas for the animation would involve twisting the concept used to create it. In my animation I chose to encourage people to exercise for the benefits rather than focus on the risks and disadvantages.
 Example: Instead of talking about what will happen if you do exercise, I could have gone into what happens to your body when you abuse your body and dismiss exercise completely.

 I designed my animation the way I did because it’s a clear adaptation of the unit brief, to get across the message about a healthy life style- in my case to do with exercise. Pivot created a clear animation that was suitable for my target audience.

  My storyboard has 12 scenes in total with appropriate character's, objects and facts about the scene.
There is a folder in my documents with all the assets I have used and considered within.
            a storyboard (with at least twelve panels) showing the different characters, objects and audio assets, and how these all combine a list of any ready-made assets (graphics, audio and video) details of the soundtrack to be included with the animation.
The design documentation should also provide: a description of the requirements from the brief an explanation of the audience and the purpose of the animation a description of alternative design ideas, which could be annotated on the storyboard, and the reasons why you rejected these ideas a justification for why you designed your animation the way you did an explanation as to how your design fulfils the purpose of the animation and how each asset helps meet the purpose of the original requirements of the brief how it meets the needs of the target audience for the animation.
My storyboard has 12 slides (the minimum requirement) that displays each scene clearly showing how object will be combined in my animation along with the characters
