[Personal] - Chosen Idea

I have decided to go with lawn mower racing.

This is because at the start of the project, we thought about focusing on the quirky events in Essex in order to move away from the crowd who we thought would all be chosing the main attactions of Essex. Dan and I came up with the transition idea where it would start off with lawn mower racing. Once they move off the screen, it would rain and then the grass would turn to mud where the scene would change to mud racing. Finally the screen would pan to the side to show a beer festival.

I really liked this idea, and decided to stick with lawn mower racing as I already had ideas of how I could start off the animation.

At some point in the animation, I will want the lawn mowers to cut some grass. I am a little concerned about this as I have no idea how I can pull this off. Hopefully it will be much easier than I think it could be. However somehow, I dont see that happening.

One problem is that I have been unable to find any reference images online at all. Even the website is quite vague. So as a result, I will have to use reference images from other lawn mower races from around the world and create a generic track. Hopefully, this will be acceptable.
