Research Supervision

Go down to transition and claim space!
Use it to physically explore what Monarch Park is.
Have walls for each character and build up who they are.
Have space for why they are fairies and what NZ environment aspects it is.
Also for the target audience, what makes it look like who it's for?
Question development section including character driven narrative.

Get some newsprint to put up.

My question is still to broad.

Research some fairy context in animation. Why are they associated with children's stories?

Book could be good? https://books.google.co.nz/books?id=Y34yDwAAQBAJ&lpg=PA23&ots=ujHmY49uB_&dq=why%20fairies%20in%20kids%20tv&pg=PA2#v=onepage&q=why%20fairies%20in%20kids%20tv&f=false

Fairies allow the exploration of the NZ environment at a miniature scale and also fantasy story lines mixed in with slice of life. Normal kids couldn't do the things I want my characters to do. In the Flintstones it focuses on the family of normal people but in a prehistoric setting. But why not make them in the present day? It gives an interest of what those kind of people could be doing but also including modern day things for comedy and relate-ability. Same thing in the Jetsons. Two pretty popular shows. I'll explore this in detail.
