Need Ideas fast please!!!!
Please help out, One of our local online computer stores have a competition starting today to make a 15-45sec commercial for them, we have time till the end of July before competition ends (only for their clients thou)
The prize isn’t that great (Sony Handycam HDR-CX190 FULL HD) none the less
Now most guys is handing in real movies they made with their camcorders of some idea for them as a commercial, but nowhere in the rules say I can’t make an animation in Maya
Now this is my idea I have, obviously to make an animation that looks good for that long for me would take longer than a month ( I am a slow poke)
But if I can make stick characters for my film and keep everything black and white and simple I might save some time,
This is the story line i am thinking of, the company name is SIMPLICITY so i want to start with a splash screen that says BEFORE SIMPLICITY then start my first clip of a guy on a telephone (with a cord) and someone walks by and trips over the wire, then clip 2 is a guy playing xbox with a remote in he’s hands (wired of course) and someone trips over he’s remote then clip 3 a guy with a laptop where the network cable is on the floor and same story someone trip over it,
Then the second Splash screen pops up saying AFTER SIMPLICITY, then the 3 same clips but this time the guy with the phone has a cell, a wireless xbox remote and a Bluetooth dongle or wifi router setup for last guy.....sure you guys catch my drift on how i want to promote simplicity (lol)
(All these products they sell) or maybe replace the laptop 1 with a guy listening to music maybe with earphones etc
Now where do I start....................?
Any ideas on how to make nice stick men and items?

Create the basic stickman and then have at least 3 splits alone all points to help with joint rigging and animation. Just an idea/starting point for you.
