game plan for research

Research Plan 

Types of short film 

- animated

- live action 

- characters are actors 

- characters are objects 

Initial inspiration 

- transition scene from hot fuzz

- The Lego movie ghost scene

- Alma 

- Laval - pixar short film 

- the heath row Christmas ad 

I am most interested having a visual story with little dialogue, I want it to be told by the actions and the events. I want my characters to be objects rather than played by actors, I believe this would convey the themes and mood of my ideas better. Therefore I want to begin my research into stop motion and animation first, for my short film. 

Summer plan:

I am going develop a couple of idea's on
- an adaptation of a short story/novel
- a news story
- a historical event/figure
- a developed scenario from one of the set texted
- an original idea
