This is a response to Exploring and Extending Narrative through the form of a book.

For me, a major part about any narrative are characters; I would not be able to love a story no matter how great it is if I am not fond of the characters. With the classic, linear book-bound narrative, the only interaction you have with the inviduals in the story is observation through storytelling.

So what if we could interact with those beloved characters? I 'imagined' this through befriending with a stick figure. Inspired by the famous side scrolling platformer Fancy Pants, I created a whimsical and lighthearted animation where you could interact with these figures which everyone's doodled at least once in their lives.

Below is a newer version in which I replaced the intro of the video with a more cohesive sequence of lettering.

Thanks for watching!
