Expectation for this year's animation club

Last year in animation club, there were only less than 10 people and this year is more than 10-15 people. This year, we hope to create more projects, go to more trips, and hope people will understand how animation works. Last year, we made a 6 min movie for the Spring Carnival, we used old movies we made and combine them into one. We are looking forward to help the new members with creating movies and other stuff. We are expecting the new members to listen to their peers, seniors, and the teacher. Our animation teacher, Diana will help us through the process.
