One of the main chunks of this unit revolves around a nursery rhyme. We have choose from a list of nursery rhymes and create concepts and storyboards for our idea. We were given a lot of freedom with this, with the only condition being that it had to feature animals.
I chose to do my project based on the Lion and the Unicorn, an old English rhyme featuring a battle between the two animals. The only real problem I had was that I did not want to be too literal with this, so I have decided to anthropomorphise the two creatures.
To start with, I began some drawings for the two characters. Because I want them to represent England (lion) and Scotland (Unicorn), I have given them costumes that are associated with these countries, with a fantasy flair. The lion is wearing full plate armour, whilst the Unicorn is wearing a kilt and sash.
I also started a mind map to explore possible ideas to start with when developing this project.
