I met up with Henry last week and showed him my idea and the animatic. He really liked the idea, but had a couple of suggestions:
- There should be some interaction between the girl and the toy feet in the fantasy world
- There should be an element of danger - getting trampled on
- The ending would be better if she gets stood on by the giant foot, but as it's about to squash her, she wakes up as if from a nightmare.
- Also, I should look at 'Where the Wild Things Are' (2009) by Spike Jonze, as it is quite similar. Its about a little boy who wants more attention from his parents, and he creates his own world with creatures in where he can be the centre of attention.

I agree with what Henry suggested, I did originally want her to get caught under their feet, and I really like the ending idea, so I added these into the animatic:
Because the ending is different in this one, the timing is different too. Its only 3 seconds longer than the last animatic, but she leaves the world a lot later. So I had to create a new plot graph, and send both of these to my composer.
