Animation Assignment

It's Christmas Time...all the time!!!

Mr. Turkey goes into Starbucks and sees that it's already Christmas time. He thought November was his month! But, if Starbucks brings out the red cups, it must be Christmas time - who is he to argue?

He purchases a Gingerbread Latte for $4.73 and heads home, determined to get into the holiday spirit. On the way home, Mr. Turkey runs into his friend Ms. Witch and tells her that it's Christmas time -- Starbucks say so! The two of them return to Mr. Turkey's house and prepare themselves for the holidays.

The next day, Ms. Witch goes to Starbucks and gets her Peppermint Mocha with red sprinkles. On her way to work, she runs in to the Statue of Liberty. Lady Liberty is shocked at Ms. Witch's new appearance and inquires what prompted this drastic change. Ms. Witch explains that it's Christmas - haven't you seen the red cups at Starbucks?

So Lady Liberty makes her holiday preparations. The next day, she goes to Starbucks to get her Eggnog Latte and sees the Easter Bunny on the way. She explains to the Easter Bunny that it's Christmas already - duh! The Easter Bunny, not wanting to be a Scrooge, rushes home to hang the mistletoe and ready herself for holiday festivities.

The Easter Bunny --> leprechaun --> dead presidents --> Martin Luther King, Jr.

Soon, all the holiday figures are wearing red and green all year long. Christmas has officially taken over, all thanks to Starbucks.
