The idea of the carnival is growing on me, although I need to further experiment in compositions to best present this. Being aware that this will be my first self directed scene in Maya, I just hope I have ability to take this concept on without being too ambitious that I may lack the execution. I guess much trial and experimentation is necessary to ensure I am able to do this.
Any thoughts most welcome.

Hi Leo,
Lots of thumbnails - excellent. Yes, I think the carnival has an additional dimension to it, in terms of 'unheimlich' - in so much as a paragon of fun and innocence slides into its opposite as soon as the crowds go home; for a wonderful vision of the 'dark carnival' (it's a sort of literary tradition), check out the 1983 film version of the Ray Bradbury story 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' - directed by Jack Clayton (who also did the movie 'The Innocents' - another great ghost story film with 'uncanny' children - a recommended watch).
