Brainstorming!!
TYPE OF FILM
Animation -istop motion [e.g Wallace and Gromit style]
musical -actors+singers needed
horror - discount idea-not suitable for children
adventure- discount idea- too slow going [we only have three minutes]
scifi- animation or actors
action-animation or actors/both
PLOT IDEAS
alien invasion
typical fairytale
animal [single character/whole cast]
superhuman children [could prove difficult- need children]
human meets-talking animal/ other creature [alvin and the chipmunk inspired]
Kung Fu Panda Analysis.
The children's film is set in ancient China where a young panda, Po, is dreaming about becoming the Kung Fu master and being adored and admired by the famous Furious Five [the currant Kung Fu heroes] along with everyone he meets. Nearing the end of this sequence the Furious Five join Po in his fight against evil when suddenly they start to tell him to wake up. This is when we realise that Po is only dreaming, then we see him wake up on the floor of his room. Po's dream is shown by the sketchy hand-drawn animation without CGI in a graphic novel style, whereas the actual film is a typical smooth, clean animation characters and settings.
This film is an action comedy aimed towards children with the larger than life Po and his spectacular Kung Fu dream.
