As you may be aware from the previous posts, I have a rough idea of the story I want to create. However, the story I am creating now is different from the story I wanted to create in early September, I originally wanted to main character (The Monkey) to leap out of the animation paper and interact with the "real" world, below is the script I produced for that story:
As you can see, the story was finished and could have worked well, however I felt that this would disregard the symbolism I wanted, which was that the character works well on paper, and doesn't need to enter the new world, plus it would have been very difficult to get the character off the paper considering I am drawing this character entirely traditionally, the only way it would work is if I drew the character in Adobe Flash once he jumps out of the paper, which would again disregard the who reason behind my idea. So I wanted to confine the character to paper and have him interact with the "paper world" he is in, below is the script I produced for that story:
Script Draft 2
I felt that this was along the right path that I was wanting, however these two scripts made the character seem incredibly mischievous and I don't know if the audience would like this. Plus I didn't think the story was strong enough, there wasn't enough interaction between the traditional method and the digital method, so I have been thinking of different ideas I could use to incorporate both mediums.
As I mentioned in a previous post, I have an idea which could incorporate both mediums, and this would also allow me to use both an Old Animator and a Young animator, this story would involve the Old Animator dying of old age, and a new, younger animator takes over, using the digital method, and rather than the traditional character be mischievous, he could just be curious. I will think more about this idea in the future, but for now I think I have a fairly solid idea for a story which involves 4 characters, the cat character I will call Max, The Old Animator, The Young Animator and the digital character, possibly a love interest for Max the Cat, we shall see.
