Anyway here are the INSPIRATIONS.
for the Child Illustrations I decided to chose one of my favorite books from my primary school days (despite reading it only once up to this point, it was THAT good)
The Book is the Phantom tollbooth By Norton Juster and Illustrated by Jules Feiffer. It was a very creative story about a miserable child called Milo who travels to the magical world through the phantom tollbooth and learns all the great things and responsibilities life has (things including wisdom, curiosity, life lessons like punctuality and not jumping to conclusions).
After reading it I wanted to make a short based off of the island of conclusion section where Milo and the gang (Humbug and Tock) assume the journey is going to be easy and so they unwillingly jump to the island of conclusions (get it? Jumping to conclusions?)
I decided to use the character of Humbug because I like his design; he's also the role model of what NOT to be like as he's always the first person to fall into these kind of traps.
