Final Project Proposal

Plot: Ninja the Man is battling through a series of obstacles to reach the end of the maze in time to obtain the prize. Either he will succeed and become a legend, or he will fail and bad things might happen to him.

Logline: Ninja the Man battles his way through a challenging obstacle course as he races to reach the end before the time runs out.

Characters:
-Ninja the man is a ninja who uses his high dexterity, variety of attacks, and great awareness to dodge a multitude of attacks from the obstacle course and defeat the robotic warriors as he races to the end of the obstacle course.

-Robotic Warriors are part of the obstacle course designed to beat martial artists in weaponless combat.

-The Elder is the person who gives Ninja the Man the reward if he wins or maybe punishes Ninja the Man if he doesn't finish in time.

In order to make this animation I will use Flash on my computer and record sounds using my phone. If I use other people's music I will get permission first.

3 act structure rewrite

Title: The Bet

Logline: Three legendary poker players put money in the pot, but only one can win.

Act 1: Three legendary poker players, Billy Bob, John Johnson, and Dwayne the Rock, meet in the middle of nowhere and sit down at a conveniently placed table to play poker.

Act 2: Cards are dealt, and the game begins. After a few rounds with minor betting, Dwayne the Rock, feeling confident, puts all his money in the pot. Equally confident, Billy and John match.

Act 3: Tensions are high. Once all the cards are dealt, they show their cards one by one. First Billy shows, followed by John and finally Dwayne. Billy Bob has won!!! However, before he can respond, Dwayne the Rock reaches out, grabs the money, and runs away faster than either Billy or John can chase. The other two are left in the middle of nowhere.

The End!

Thursday Sketch and animation



What action script did you use?

Why did you choose it?
-I chose it because it is the most modern and up to date.

How did you trace the frog/toad? Can you include examples of your work in the blog post?
-I pasted the picture from the instructions onto the bottom layer. I then traced it with the brush tool on the layer above. This is what it looked like after 1 frame. I then deleted the bottom layer.


Who is the master animator Richard Williams?
-He is a british-canadian animator. He worked on many animated movies such as Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Pink Panther.

Which software did you use and why?
-I used adobe flash, because I know how to use it more than others.

How many layers did you use?
-I used 2 layers, one for the frog and one for the background.

Why did you choose your background?

Why did we create a frog/toad? (instead of a ball or entire city)
-The frog has some detail to it, but is not too time consuming for a single frame.

Wonder Woman and Green Lantern

Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, both protagonists of their own animated stories, are quite similar. Both of them are genuine heroes as well as being great citizens. Both of them are quite charismatic and good at making friends. Both of them are good at thinking on the fly and making snap decisions. Both of them also have the bodies of the perfect male and female human being respectively.

However, there are certain key differences between Wonder Woman and Green Lantern. Primary among the differences is that Green lanterns are all male, including Hal Jordan. However Wonder Woman, and all the people from her island with whom she trains are all women. Green Lantern is air force pilot when not on duty, whereas Wonder Woman is a princess. Green Lantern has a sidekick, another Green Lantern named Kilowog. However, Wonder Woman works generally alone, and excels at individual combat instead.

Fridge logline and three act structure

Logline: This intense battle between Burger and Cannibal Burger is absolutely bananas, and the burger's time is running out!


Three act structure:
Act 1:
The story starts out with the villain of the story, the burger, attacking and eating a burger patty. We see this already evil burger turn into the villainous Double Burger. The scene cuts away to show the chum bucket and the Krusty Krab. As we enter the Krusty Krab, we are introduced to the protagonists Fridge, and his allies Patrick Starr, and we also see supreme leader Jose Ballin in the line.
Act 2:
After reading the news, Fridge concludes that the chum bucket has developed a burger that eats krabby patties. At that moment, supreme leader Jose Ballin reaches the front of the line, and he orders Patrick to help outlaw cannibal burgers. The Krusty Krab team of Fridge, Patrick, and the politburo engage in a series of battles with the chum bucket army, as the war wages on.
Act 3:
The Krusty Krab realizes that the cannibal burgers are actually ruining business, and if they do not get rid of the source within 2 minutes the krusty Krab will need to shut down. They formulate a plan and mount one final attack on the chum bucket. After this final attack, supreme leader Jose Ballin outlaws all burgers, so the Krusty Krab and the chum bucket both need to shut down anyway.

El Frigador

The story of El Frigador is one of sadness and coldness. He grew up very happy, surrounded by his brothers in a big building called "Factory." He loved it there, but he never got to meet his parents. So he set out to find his parents. He went to the operator of Factory. He asked the operator "Where are we and do you know where my parents are?" The operator claimed that they were on the island of Kamino, and that El Frigador had no parents. He was an Identical copy of another fridge. HE WAS A CLONE.

Very upset, El Frigador went to the most knowledgable place on the internet: Wikipedia and Yahoo Answers. Yahoo answers contributers all told him to go to latvia to the crusty crabb, where he could work, so he went there and worked for the rest of his life as a fridge.
