My love of stop motion led me to go
down the path of creating a puppet 'me', but i have been struggling with what
should be in the film. So I've been exploring the idea of creationism in it's
generic form. Frankenstein, marionettes and puppets, robots and maleable
monsters. What settings best fit the characters and which character do i want
to base my ideas on?
Monsters and robots are best suited
to sci-fi and horror, dolls and kids puppets belong in a playroom as part of a
life sized set and an armature should be in a studio waiting to be finished off
or cast.
I like the last idea the most, the
idea of physically making a puppet version of me in front of a camera, then
having it come to life, display it's personality and grow. The whole film would
be a metaphor for personal physical and emotional development, the journey to
becoming the adult i am today.
