ABSTRACT
This chapter presents a final exercise that combines several different elements that has been explored in this book. The inspiration for this exercise comes from the great designer and animator Tex Avery. The filmmakers should line up a young man on the bench with their camera and shoot a 30-frame hold. Their camera will approach a young man sitting on a bench outside. The subject looks left and right (in pixilation) and suddenly stops turning and looks directly at someone offscreen. The camera cuts to a close-up of a girl batting her eyes at the young man. The film cuts back to a close-up of the young man. He blinks his eyes, and vibrating paper hearts grow out of his eyes. His ears blow steam (cotton) and then the young man starts to get up, heading frame left. The couple glide together and spin around each other and glide away from the camera into the sunset, leaving a trail of hearts.
