Brief description: In this interactive menu i see various different toys running around with other
What do you see? toys they look like there having a good time. This shows you that the film is a fun
movie. Some of the toys are acting in a funny manner this could suggest that the
film is quite funny. The intervactive menu keeps you quite interested as you want
to know what the toys get up to next. They are running in front of a white board
with different options on for example – Play, Scene selection etc. The white
board is set quite far back so this shows that it is not the main interest on the
screen.
