Create an Environment designed with multi-planes to enable it for animation later on. (We won't be animating these in class)
Your Environment should be designed to be shown in HD dimensions (1980 x 1080 pixels). But since this Environment will be used for multi-plane animation, your final should be created with additional width or height (depending on how it will animate and/or scroll) and utilize layers so different elements can animate independently. (see examples below)
