Max Jones proposes a short animation project titled "York Talks" aimed at audiences aged 16-24. The project will bring Lego objects to life using audio recordings of York residents answering questions. It will address topics that could be specific to York in a comedic way to spark debate. The goal is to produce an advertisement-style short that portrays the people of York in a positive light as friendly, funny, and putting the city in a good light. The original piece of work will give Max a chance to choose shot locations and present something new for the area.
