"Fallen Kingdom" - A Minecraft Parody of Coldplay's Viva la Vida (Music Video

"Take Back the Night" - A Minecraft Original Music Video

I am watching animations like this because its giving me ideas of what kind of animation I want to make and up to now i am thinking of making some kind of parody of a song.

Here are some print screens of minecraft animations, I am not making A animation that will be made with this kind of software, i am using clay or cutout or maybe lego.

I have decided I am going to use lego as my animation.

Ideas for my animation.

Idea 1

my first idea is going to be a parody of some song that I can use and I am going to use lego for it so it is going to be like some of the videos I have shown on this blog but not as complicated as them because that would be nearly impossible for me to do and it will be very time consuming. Thats why I have chose to use lego for my animation. this will be around 30 seconds long 

Idea 2:

I could use some kind of fight seen where there is someone walking down the road and far away out of view there is a guy with a sniper getting ready to take him down, when he is given the order to do so this will be around 30 seconds long and it will be made with lego

Chosen Song

I have chose to do my idea 2 because it seems like the best idea to use 

Proposal

Working Title:

The assassinator 

Outline

There is a guy walking down a road with hills at eat side and there is another guy on top of a hill and he snipes him when he is given the order to do so

Genre

Action

Materials

Two images that are on the internet that are a road and a hill

Target Audience 

The target audience for this animation is pretty much teenagers because of the small amount of violence it isnt recommended for kids under the age of 10. People who like movies such as the "the shooter" which has a scene kinda like this on it, this is where I got this idea from.

Backgrounds

Images I will be using for my animation. The first one is for when the guy is walking down the road and the second one is where the guy who is shooting him is hiding. I will explain it more here and how it is gonna work I am gonna be making this with Lego and there will be two characters. on the first scene the guy will be on the road walking up it and that scene will be on for around 10 seconds or so I will add some actions on what he does on the bridge and how he acts as if someone is watching him but he just doesn't know where that person is on the second picture that is where the guy with the gun will be. You won't see him at the start he will come over the hill from behind so he will slowly appear onto the screen.

How long will it take to do?

I will probably get this done in around a week or so, the animation because I need to find the props but that will probably be rather easy because for this I do not need many props just lego, Camera, Background and that is probably it unless something else might come in useful as I am doing it or I might think of something I might want to add into it whilst I am doing it that might make it better than it originally would of been from what I first thought of. 

All this preparation has taken around 2 weeks because I needed to think of what kind of short animation I wanted to do and some of the props I needed, characters, the audience for my short animation and where the animation is going to be based so the backgrounds I will be using for this. 

This animation will probably be around 30 seconds long but I am going to try and stretch it out and make some scenes longer so it wont end as fast
