Clockwise from the Top Left:

-A Fountain Pen: Simply used as visual inuence for the basic appearance of the

Fountain Pen featured in my animation

-Luxo Jr.: Ive taken inluence from this animation, both in terms of its concept

and its presentation. The stong character that comes from these two simpleobjects is something I wish to carry over into my animation. Ive also taken de-

cided to take a similar, minimalist style in terms of the setting, using a simple, at

plane in the same way Luxo Jr. does

-The Brooms from Fantasia: Ive drawn considerable inuence from the way in

which the personied brooms move around in Fantasia, notably, in the way that

my Fountain Pen stands and walks around

-Spongebob and Squidward: Ive looked at these two characters not because

of their visual appearance, but because of their relationship. The two charac-

ters possess contrasting personalities which contribute signicantly to humour ofthe scenarios in which they are placed and this is the exact relationship I want

for my Fountain Pen and Crayon characters

-Crayons: Simply used as visual inuence for the basic appearance of the

Crayon featured in my animation

-Purple Tentacle from Day of the Tentacle: Initially I looked at this character as

movement inuence for my Fountain Pen, but it proved more useful as inuence

for my Crayon character, providing me with a simple squash and stretch hop-

ping animation for the Crayons movement
