Animation Idea

My idea for my stop motion is to present a cross over of both Harry Potter and Pokémon. I chose to do this as i am passionate about both of these genres.

The main concept will be Harry will be tossing and turning in his bed at Hogwarts by using shots from one of the Harry Potter films, this will pose as the basis for my animation and be used to separate each of the scenes with in it.

During this animation rather than dreaming about his ever advancing fight against Voldemort  pitching their magical practises against each other he will instead be dreaming about receiving his first Pokemon from professor Dumbledore and battling in turn against Ron Weasley, Draco Malfoy and Voldemort in the final showdown.

I will be using classic scenes from the harry potter films such as Hagrid's Hut, the Quidditch pitch and the Great Hall.

This will make the animation more realistic and look better.

Once the filming is finished I will add in the other sections via editing such as sounding and effects.

My primary target audience will be 10 – 18 year olds, this is because I feel this is a good age range that the genre of my advert will appeal to.

I intend to use a series of different effects in my animation, such as the different shot types, this will include close ups, middle shots and long shots.

For the speed of my animation i will be using approximately 10 frames per second as i feel this will cause my animation to flow well between each of the different shots and scenes.
I will have several limitations such as trying to make the characters fly, however if i am unable to do this I will adjust the script/ idea slightly so that it doesn't involve flying places.
