Animation Research Pt.2

Callum linked me to this video about Syria to help me get a better idea of what he wants our animation to look like

The animation is about how Syria got into the situation its in Today in an animation format. He told me he wants the animation to look like its made out of paper and that him and Joe will be scanning in cutouts of images for the animation. I find the video fascinating in the way its animated. All of it seems to be going through a dirty filter, which I think is what makes it look like its on paper. I want to see what the difference is between using real and fake paper in this type of animation.
