New Story, Roles, and Links!


Some art from Tangled and Brittany Lee for inspiration.


NEW STORY:

There's is a little girl who wants to be a __________. But she sucks at it. She makes a wish.

The wish is retrieved by the wish creature, but the wishmaster dude says no. Instead of tossing it in the No bin, it decides to save the twinkling little wish.

We see the girl at different phases of her life, trying to get better at ________. She still wishes whenever she can for her dream to come true. The wishmaster keeps saying no, and the little creature keeps hoarding all of the ungranted wishes instead of throwing them away.

In the end, we see that the girl has become successful. The wishes are still stockpiled in the sky and at her moment of victory, the creature pushes them down and they rain down upon her.


OTHER NOTES:

So everyone can modify the story as they wish, but some things Pamela said to keep in mind are 1) Contain the story to one single escalating event. We want to make sure it is just about that one thing. 2) It cannot be more than 2 mins.

Right now our "C" is that sometimes you have to make your wishes come true on your own,


JOBS (as of now)

Main Focus Other Tasks

Noel*- Concept art, matte painting animation, lighting
Tara- Character artist modeling, texturing

Jay*- Environment, Lighting props, environment modeling
Marcos- Character modeling post-production
Julian- Animation character design

This is what I have down right now. if I got anything wrong, just let me know. I have *s by people who mentioned they might not be taking proj400 in the fall because of internships. Sadly, that's most of our environment people, so we may have to work something out there.


LINKS:
I forwarded these links from Pamela earlier, but I figured I would post them all here too:

    Awesome! thanks for posting all of this! I love that scene from tangled, so pretty, also nice artwork from Brittany Lee.

    Marcos, Julian, Tara, Campion and I were talking about the story, and we kind of have a new idea. We have such a great idea with "how wishes come true". It's such an original idea, and we really like it. But in our currently story, it could be told without the wishing creatures. The current story is also very close to The Princess and the Frog.

    I think a direction we could go with our idea is to a wish that does come true. Or to a story just about the wishing world.

    We could do either of those things, but it will change our theme. So we would have to come up with a new "C." Remember, we want a single escalating event. What do you guys see as the theme of those stories?
