Please forgive some grammar mistakes as english is not my native tongue. Even though it is not grammatically perfect I tried my best to make it understandable. If you ever find a sentence that does not make sens, please tell me. I will correct it an reupload the file.

Note that I would be pleased to give you feedback and corrections, feel free to send me your animations at quentin.cordonnier@hotmail.fr
