Researching Creations

 
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.
