----original proposal----

My goal for the final project is to design and build two simple(in terms of function/mechanics) marionettes (diagram sketch attached) that will be silly and brightly designed, and are small and light enough for manipulation by children (8+). A logo will be designed for branding and then used in a short demonstration video(the puppets acting in an environment) of the marionettes which will function as a product demo or for marketing the sale of them directly to buyers.

This project can also be tweaked towards a focus on the marionettes as characters to make a short narrative pitch video that would be working in a more surreal aesthetic. It would potentially be accessible but not necessarily limited to an older audience (teens to adult). The video could also be used as a basis for independently developing a web series, which could be monetized through views or marketing runs of puppets based on or working in the same aesthetic as the video.

For either option the schedule would be:

Week one (mon 21st, day of): have puppet and logo designs, along with a rough story board ready for critique.

Week two ( mon 21- sun27): finalize and build puppets and logo along with beginning construction of any element needed for video (nothing complex)

Week three (mon 28-sun 4) finish any elements and tweek things as needed before then shooting and editing video for presenting(hosted through YouTube) on mon 5.

--------------rough story board------------
characters come on set, happen upon each other, freak out, hide and peek, come out and greet, flip out, end




----------set sketch------------

walls not attached to base so can be moved for diff shots, "bushes" big enough to hide puppet behind

Kelcey Carbery - Final Proposal

For my proposal regarding the final project, I would like to focus on something that I thoroughly enjoy. I would like to focus on animals, specifically wildlife. I want to play around with the idea of flora and fauna and how those two things directly correlate with one another. I would like to do several pieces, potentially 8 or 10. I want them to be sort of "profiles" on specific animals that I love. My ideas for these animals such far are: deer, horses, bears, wolves, hawks, lions, elephants, etc. I want animal to be silhouetted, whilst the flora is depicted within the shape of the animal. I would like these to have a fashion focus, or a surface design intention, but I am willing to apply them to anything. I am also lightly considering making a small sculpture out of watercolor paper in the shape of one of these animals and painting flora upon it.

Content will include: 

-This will include a series of 5-10 illustrations, potentially 12, that are all animals native to North America. They will follow a silhouetting style and will have watercolor studies of different flowers, plants, trees, etc. within their defined animal shape. Some animals being considered for final include: horse, wolf, fox, bear, elk, owl, mountain lion, rabbit, hawk, eagle, buffalo, moose, or raccoon 

Audience Intended:

- My audience will hopefully be to all people, considering that animals can be enjoyed by anyone no matter their age. 

Further Ideas:

-posters

-calendar

-stickers

-surface design

-prints, patterns

-potentially use watercolor studies to further the project
