Let me start off by showing you what the title should looks like. The animation piece will begin by panning out from the starry sky to this still image shown below. This has already been timed out and simply needs to be added to the video.
The scene will then be set by making it clear that it is night time and that the two characters will be walking through the woods in the dark.
I possibly might add a text sequence to verify what the two characters are doing before they appear on screen.
I have managed to at this point to get the film's animation run time up to 49 sec leaving only a few more scenes let to be put in.
One of the challenges that I faced was to have a sequence were one character (Boggy) turns from one position to another, at a moments notice. See below

I carried out research to establish how this sequence could be done. A looked at animation video created by Chuck Jones 'The Dover Boys' who showed how to make fast movement look effective.
To achieve this I distorted the eye's shape making it stretch out and blurring it to give the look of boggy zipping across from left to right. Around 16 frames were used to created this sequence.
This save on the amount of frames used compared to if it was done more conventionally
