Research And Planning

Boundaries: Film must be between 25 and 30 seconds

The main reason in which I chose to use haribos as the main thing in my stop animation film was because I saw a stop animation film on youtube that contained skittles (the sweets) and watching that gave me the idea to use a different type of sweet and after a long and hard think I decided that I was going to use gummy bears and hearts (Haribos in particular) and strwberry laces. I have chosen to use Haribos and strawberry laces because the sweets contain many different objects which are perfect for making short, funny and imaginative stop animation films. Considering my film is about love i thought that using sweets would be a good contrast to reflect love as in some cases especially young love is sweet and mushy so using harribos is a good way to get the sweet and mushy point of young love accross

My plan is to deliver a short love story between two gummy bears that are in love, I have chosen to have the target audience of 16-21 year olds in addition to this I have decided to make my film short and slightly humorous. I also have another target audience aim which is aimed towards people who are aged between 26-35. I have chosen this target audience because i want it to remind them of their childhood by looking at the sweets, I want it to remind them of playing outside with their friends when they were younger and spending all there money on strawberry laces and harribos in a place like woolworths. In addition to this i want it to remind them of young "cute" love. I think my film will definnitley deleiver to both my targets audiences, it will also be entertaining because of the soft adult humor i plan to place in it.

I plan to use my old animation film to help me create a new one, by looking at my old animation film I will look at my flaws and try to make them better so that i don't repeat the same mistakes again, another reason that i have chosen to use my old animation film was so that I could look at the strong point in it and doing so i could take those strong points/skills and use them again in my new project.

I decided the i want to keep dialouge to a minimal so i plan to use small phrases to go with my video rather than full on conversations, i have made this decision because my film is going to be very short i want my audience to focus more on the video than on any dialouge, however any dialouge that i do put in will be short and humorus. I also plan to have an ongoing cheesy love instramental in the background to make my film extra cheesy and sweet.
