huanim1-4, Exercise 2: Design and setting

Model answer:

1. Painted natural backgrounds of woods, fields and snow: the setting feels real, so danger and shelter are believable.
2. Animals that move like real animals but keep expressive faces: viewers believe in the animals and still feel for them.
3. The changing seasons as structure: warm summer gives way to cold winter, marking time passing and raising the stakes.

A fourth acceptable choice is the music, which sets mood and is easily remembered. Details should be checked.
