I've recently been stressing about what I'm going to make my senior thesis about.
But now I've decided to make a film based on my outlaw ballad "Raising 'Kane'", an epic poem about the Citizen Kane controversy.
Technically half my storyboards are finished because I was originally going to publish it as "a children's book for film buffs", and I completed the illustrations over two years ago. Granted, I'm going to have to re-work them to make them more suitable for a film medium, but I can handle it.
At least I'm not freaking out so much about a story, because that was something that kept eating away at me. All my pet-projects are so ambitious they're more suited for a movie or TV show, not a seven-minute short. I love animated shorts like "Presto" or "Paperman", but I sure-as-hell can't write them, especially not on the spot.
But, yeah. I've got a basic narrative figured out, and the basic visual idea and half the staging done already.
Another cartoon about film history, the historical figures portrayed by anthropomorphic cartoon animals.
