animation
Cave man finds a large boulder and kicks
it, hurts his foot. Tries charging at it, is flattened out thin like a piece of
paper from the impact. The boulder sees the paper man, freaks out and runs
away, running into a tree. The tree falls and lands on the now joyful cave man.
The tree is shaped like a giant pair of scissors.

Methodology
Experiment with tools and techniques that could be utilized in practice to express the physical comedy prevalent in my animation project.
Thinking about such things as, the principles of animation, choices in
character design, motion capture verses hand animation. The utilization of
music, composition and timing. Visual effects and story boarding.
Research in
Theory(other class)
What are the differences in the reception
of a film or animation between the characters being a female or a male, or between
an anthropomorphic animal and human?
