So my idea that I'm working on more than my other ideas for my senior film is my wildly inaccurate bio-pic of walt disney. Here's some things I am thinking of ways to incorporate.
James bond inspired title sequence
Projecting on someone's body
Colored lights
Bubbles in a void
Blade runner style lighting
Joke where someone rises into frame
Fantasia music w/ images
Okay and here's a basic and subject to change plot outline:
Walt disney lives in a modest 60's home with his wife in Hollywood California. Walt is trying to start his career as an animator, but his work seems to be lacking talent, even though he is very passionate about animation. Many days he wanders the woods constantly tormented by all of his inspiration that he can't properly express. I'd like him to show his crappy animations to his wife, I'm planning on learning how to do some acetate animations that I'd like to incorporate into the film. It is clear that the animations are not good, but his innocent wife likes them and supports him. Walt is sad that he can't become a better artist so that he and his wife can have a better life and he can bring beauty into the world. He continues to work, his animation develops, but he still thinks its not right.
The rest of the movie isn't as thought out. I think walt should probably try to enhance his talent in some morally questionable manner that risks his well-being. Maybe he'll have a dream world freak out and try to get back his original drive and passion for animation but ultimately fails and dies.
Then his wife, dressed as a saint, will kneel at the doorstep of a big movie company and offer walt's final drawing to them in order to try to justify his death. The drawing will be of mickey mouse.
Still got a lot of thinking to do~~~~~~~
