Audrey
Audrey is an extreme mum. She is extreme in the sense that she loves dangerous and thrilling activities such as sky diving, swimming with sharks and bungee jumping. She has recently been through a divorce where her ex husband said she was boring which is the reason she has become an adrenaline junky.
She has 3 children who she loves fiercely and would do anything to protect however she has a tendency to pull her kids out of school to go on a wild adventure which could lead to danger.
This was a brief history for our character, developed within the dream writing class.
We also had to come up with a storyline for Audrey during this class. Our story was about ho Audrey decided to take her kids out on a picnic. But being Audrey it was no ordinary picnic, she decided to take them to the safari park for a picnic. They broke into the safari and set up their picnic, but she had their map the wrong way round and instead of being in beside the gazelles and zebras, they were in the lion pen.
The lions attracted by the food and the commotion of the family's picnic attacked. Cornered by the lions Audrey used the picnic basket to fight off the lions and protect her children from the lions.
to finish off our Dream writing class we did a dream drawing session of our characters. This was my drawing of Audrey with the picnic basket.
We were then given our brief for our animation which was to develop a script based on a scenario to do with food that would show Audrey's personality. We decided to have her cooking dinner for her children, which goes wrong when a stew monster appears from the pot. Audrey then has to battle the monster to b able to feed her children.
here is the script for our animation.
