After watching/reading the Inanimate Alice episodes and determining how I would create the next episode, I was struck by the way in which various mediums can significantly impact the feeling or emotion of a story.
From this idea, I decided to craft inanimate alice in colour. Of all the tools a designer can use to create or encourage emotion, I think that colour is one of the most powerful. The visual impact itself can be powerful from an art perspective and personal from the cultural ideologies already associated with the colour. For example, while one person may associate the colour blue with peace and tranquility, another may be reminded of sadness and despair.
From this perspective, I would suggest that colour is powerful. But the power often rests more with the interpretation of the user rather than the intention of the creator.

This was great - high-energy colour and music complemented the optimistic narrative you created. Way to go, Jaylene! But where are they off to? Just like you to leave us hanging for Episode 7!
