Ok War/Peace will translate to ‘he loves me it’s hot, he loves me it’s not’ which will be dually emphasized in every piece.
PopArt: Curry’s phone ringer is the theme song for Austin Power. You can tell where I am going to go with this. A poster. Groovy 60’s poster of a “he loves me he loves me not” yellow flower with bubbly typography reading the title. (War .. petals on lower part of poster and Peace petals on the flower still)
Art Nouveau: A playing card. Style is art Nouveau boarders. Curry is the Queen of Hearts (Peace) and the lower half is Pox as a Joker (War)
Expressionism: A bulletin board with rubber bands running across with memories collected and pinned on it. Love letters, pictures, stubs (Peace) and some i am sorry dried flowers, wish you came with pictures (War)
Cubism: A picture frame of the Curry and Pox together (Peace) thrown on the floor with broken glass distorting the image of the couple (War)
BW: Curry in pink evening gown (Peace) with a ball and chain (War) sitting on bench in a room with floor tiles in black and white checker board style.
Now to make all of them flow. I was thinking still images in a title sequence kind of look. I am not sure exactly how .. the thought is still developing. I will try to get in detailed sketches by Wed. On second thought, maybe the set of them can be all placed in a set-up scene. Off the top of my head, a work station with the picture frame in broken glass on a table , the wall will have a pop art poster, the black and white maybe on a printer bed, and the bulletin board is above the the desk?! Something along that line?!?!
Chickening Curry?
October 6, 2009 - Leave a Response
Curry is social-perk chicken. This chic is the youngest of a flock of five. Her youngest sister is 18 years older than her. She has been around adults all her life. Curry is a chic at heart but a chicken in sight. She is so generous and loving. Would do anything for her friends. Sometimes she even forgets herself. She has so many social circles and has the energy and desire to balance them all with her career life that is just as demanding. She takes care of her parents who are grandparents to 12 children. She is a favored aunt and lives her childhood playing with her nieces and nephews. She is seeing a rooster, Pox, who is head over heels for her. She has been seeing him for 7 years now. Her parents love him and her dad gets along with him really well. He is an ambitious achiever. Pox loves Curry so much he has become possessive of her. She finds security in his micro loving that she feels contained but cannot put a finger on how. She still goes out and lives life like she would if she was ‘free’, but knowing she will have to constantly answer to him makes her aware of herself a lot more. People around her notice her change but have a hard time showing her what they see. Curry eventually starts to sense that her spirits are restricted and fearing she won’t know how to be free .. she hesitates on leaving Pox. She thinks she is too chicken. She leaves him and gets back .. leaves and comes back. Every time she leaves Pox gets his act together. When she settles .. he gets worked up all over again. She really isn’t chicken enough. She has reached a fork in her path .. either marry Pox and live his restraints .. or find the courage to leave him and re-grow her own way.
Trip to 3D.

He is a 2D character (southpark-like). He is morbid. Cannot stand the fact that he has to be here .. on guard and full of attitude .. as the situation around him changes .. it causes him to .. ‘react’. He gets pushed and shoved around as if caught in a drain .. moving ‘where the wind blows’.. knows its amusing to you .. and can’t help but find the humor lame .. he tries to sabotage events he knows are about to happen .. when it goes too far .. his behavior changes and he tries to look ‘cute’ .. Mr. Giggles all of a sudden .. still though .. he can’t escape the fact that he is pretentious. His karma gets upset with him .. grants him his 3rd Dimension .. he peels off his 2D self as he examines his ‘mass’. He finally lightens up .. genuinely ecstatic .. jumps around like no one’s watching .. when he slows down .. he feels a lapse in his figure ..looks at his body to examine the cuase .. his beer-belly .. he is devastated .. quickly turns to see his ‘hind’ side .. to his mortification he has junk in the trunk!!! After his despair settles in .. long armed and heavy weighted .. he pauses .. looks up at the screen .. venom .. his dream .. of escaping the 2 dimensional prison .. has turned him into an overweight 3 dimensional being ..
FLUBBERGASTED The Trip To The Third Dimension …
Ends on him barely breathing .. on a treadmill .. running .. like a frog in a blender .. when he notices he is being watched .. tosses his water bottle at screen ..
.. Is A Lot Of Hard Work!
