Final Treatment
Act One:
Elvrie Stares and the forest with a scared expression she approaches the edge with a jumpy step before backing away, Elvrie paces at the edge looking into the forest. She gives in to her temptation and runs into the forest skittishly running through the trees. Elvrie comes to a halt and slowly approaches a dead log, Eyes appear in the shadow and scares Elvrie, then Elvroe the demon jumps out at her. Elvrie spooks and bolts.
Act Two:
Elvroe rams into Elvrie pushing her from her path. Elvrie sends a blast of fire at the demon to distract it before running and leaping off a ledge gliding down to another level of the forest, the demon leaps out of the shadows and strikes the dragon, sending her sprawling, she gets up and continues to run, but the demon jumps in-front of her blocking her path.
Act Three:
Elvrie is stopped in her path head down refusing too look at the demon, Elvrie finaly looks up at teh deamon after some noises from it, she looks distraught and unwilling, she yowls at the calm Elvroe.
Elvroe does not respond and continues to stare down Elvrie, She takes a second to think then sighs and looks up, still looking distraught she dips her head and walks towards the demon, just as she is in front of the demon, the two form into one another forming a complete being, the combination of the two Elvraite stand in the forest, something snaps behind her and she looks back before jumping into the sky and flying away.

She looks back too see nothing before looking forward with hope and launching forward.

Pdf listing what we are doing
Story:
Satan comes home from work to discover his high score on the claw machine has been beaten by Hitler, He must reclaim top score.
Taking in the fact we are making bases to have the clay cover it will be more of a puppet animation then true claymations
We could possibly replace the claw machine with an arcade game, such as tetris or pong
Act One:
Satan Walks in through a door into his gaming room, walking past several games before spotting hsi claw machine
He then looks at the score and to his disappointment, surprise and anger, his top score has non-other has been beaten by Hitler,
Act Two:
Satan storms up to the machine glaring at Hitler's score. He pulls out a truckload of tokens from his pocket and slams one into the machine, and starts to play, he carefuly minuvers the claw to a plushie and picks it up, he grins, the claw is dragged to the prize drop but it falls out of the claws grasp before it reaches the drop, He is pissed, (smoll montage of him trying and failing)
Concentrating hard he finally wins a prize. he then wins a few more.
Act Three:
Satan looks up at the scoreboard to find his score is now back at the top, Satan Celebrates and dances, He then stops as he hears the machine working, he looks at the machine and (---) is there playing, (---) then goes to the top score, SATAN RAGES.

We both have our own clay and have been messing around with molding
We were thinking of making bases out of polistirine and covering it with clay

Story
BEEN WAITING TO USE THIS STORY
THE FUCKING AFTERLIFE
ok so, its basically its about 5 guys who die and they are complete morons, they end up going around each afterlife fucking all the shit up, though the comic itself will just to the pilot, in other words its about them all dying.
seeing as this will count as exposure, i will have another option in case, i would love to make both if possible but Im not sure, sticking to one if i need but two would be awesome.
the other idea I have is basically a slice of life comic of a costume maker that makes shit for all types of races, merfolk centaurs elves humans all the shit.

More Ideas:
Re-imagining of the tooth fairy, instead of a fairy its a faerae a long limbed created with pointy fingers that takes childrens teeth. it takes them home and makes things out of them
makes weapons to bucher children with.
Person steal souls by taking photos of people, old dirty streets they collect souls for something
Soul stitching, using should to create a net to trap demons
Group Work:
Day in the Life of the Devil
coming home to relax

Box-Trolls
I recently watched this stop-motion feature film, The animation is
extremely smooth that it can be mistaken for CGI however this entire
film is stop-motion which I find very impressive.
The best thing about this film is the after credits scene, it not only
breaks the forth wall but it does so by showing a time-laps of the animators moving
the puppets and zooming out to show the set of the scene.

Breathless
Breathless Review:
I found this film quite boring as I feel as through it was a bit dragged out within the love area. to me the old romance in films is too sappy and drawn out,
Alongside this I found the plot very hard to follow, and ended up zoning out every now and then I also found that characters not that deep in personality, I didn't notice their struggles that much as the acting and the way most characters are built in that time, they seem more (idk liquid, fluid) in personality then what is produced today.
The one thing that annoyed me most in the film was the jump-cuts majority of these were unnecessary and made the film look very tacky.

Research Question
How can I create a successful animation trend (in other words a meme).
What I have noticed about various animation memes, is that they are short and have a beat too it, nothing that would take ages to animate yet interesting original and up to pop culture on most occasions.
(im not sure if the artist of theese memes are the original creators of the trend)
What was the goal in mind when they were created?
What is something that would draw an audience in?
What kind of visuals ?
What kind of difficulty?
What kind of character would draw in people?
How can I make something that others would want to as well?

Alternate Idea
Small dragon fighting demons.
A small dragon is running through a Forrest or something trying to reach the other side to its friend though its has been forever blocked by a demon, the dragon must fight its way to its friend.
Looks at mountin so destination is shown.
Determined look on dragon face
(the longing to be near family and friends. the demon could be its counter or reflection of its self, then not physically but Mentally, we all have to somehow overcome our demons.
Maybe there is no fight, inner fight, you cant run away
It has to face it before passing, it can not run away the more it runs the worse it gets,
You have to face your demons before you ,move on
Maybe no fight just a confrontation
when finally confronted its a reflection of the dragon.
or the demon is the part of yourself that you don't like, you need to accept yourself before you move on
the other dragon might not be necessary its just about the dragons and its demon.
instead of a big fight the dragon just tries to dodge before realizing it has to face and get past its demon.

I was thinking of creating something other then my pleb story but, I think I will stick to the base of the story and pull around a few ideas for the details of the story
Thus far I have a small creature being hunted then the tables turn.
Extended Ideas:
Alian like flora and fauna
Dark colours with hints of fluorescent
White lines. as contrast the to dark fill colours.
Small skinny creature, looking for food, then it shows that it is being hunted by a creature,
(it was previously a character called Loaf but it was not intimidating enough)
I don't want the creatures to talk as I would have to find voice actors and create dialog but I don't need it, to create a decent story

Story Ideas - Stopmotion
Stop motion or more specifically claymation has this off putting look to it for me, especially if you suck at sculpting.
Ideas:
cannibal babies
Empty eyes
- Eyes are the window to the soul so what if each persons eyes matched their personality
Dead souls/lost souls, hunt the living for their souls to make them feel more real.
Ent Like creature that hunts tramping humans as revenge for its fallen kin
I want to create something creepy yet sad the thing that happens happens because of something sad something that comes from sorrow and anger.
Butterfly creature getting revenge on a human for picking its flower.

New design
another version of the pleb i am designing, the story is not set in stone though i am pretty sure this thing will end up being a character in my animation
nitial Ideas
What type of stop motion?
I am thinking of either going for claymation or puppets, either of those seem like they would be the most easyiest options, more so on the claymation option as there is no boundary to the shape the clay can take
It could be possible to do a mix of the two mediums having a puppet for the main body and clay for details such as expressions in the face.
What type of story?
So far I don't have much of an idea but I would be chill with comedy to horror, im planning on teaming up with someone so this will be discussed further with them
I am Planning on teaming up with Rach so, we are both going to come up with several ideas for stories and on our next meeting we will converse and mesh our ideas into whatever the horror of a story will be the outcome

Dragons Lullaby
I love the simple and smooth animation in this film. the designs are also great and I love the story
also dragons are awesome
It is very long for an animation and I wont be going anywhere near this time range for my story. I do like the typical story line, though it is old school I don't think its a bad thing, just as long as it not the only thing people do.

French New Wave
Overview:
The new french wave began in around the 1950's,
The new french wave began in around the 1950's,
it brought on a new perspective in the film making industry.
It encouraged film makers to express their views and creations of their own minds.
Before this wave had hit France film making was an expensive endeavor, films in that time had to have a backing from a film making company to make it possible to create. Thought through the French new wave equipment had become cheaper and people started making films and proved you do not need a big budget to produce a good film, only a good imagination.

Proposal
2s animation story idea.
Story: Don't hunt the Pleb? Might rename.
Smol pleb being hunted by a monster. I wont be using the animation I created first semester as it is WAAAY to long adding to that i had way to many characters.
Possible characters
Pleb and Loaf (not scaled)
Pleb the hunted
- jumpy and quick animation, short cuts unatural
Loaf the hunted
-slowing and bouncy blubber animation, no sharp turns it is basically a fat pug.
