Please get in your groups and start planning your production.

1. Please use TEXT EDIT and turn in the following information in the STAFF server:

• Group Member names
• A four to five sentence description of your animation project. 
• Please tell me what special "tricks" you will create to make your animation look interesting. What will your characters do that they can't do in real life?
• Also, let me know if you are using props or if the characters are wearing costumes. Who will wear what outfits?
• Most importantly please tell me the story from beginning to end.
• What type of music will you use? Why?
