The Elephant and The Mouse

There is an old tale that says that Elephants are afraid of mice and also the mice tend to hide from elephants. Well here we have to story of Boris the Elephant and Charley the Mouse. Charley was one bright mouse but Boris, unfortunately, wasn't the sharpest of Elephants. They fit together like two peas in a pod. Boris has the strength to lift the heaviest of objects and Charley is so nimble that he can climb into anything imaginable!

The reason Charley and Boris became the best of friends was due to the fact that they shared a common dilemma. There has been a drought and there is no more water to be found in the land. It's up to Charlie and Boris to find a oasis to quench their thirst!

The Overfilled City

A city is overfilled by different kinds of colorful objects. A tiny black and white object comes and tries to squash in. It tries horizontally and vertically but its shape is always 1 mm. wider than the available space. The tiny object modifies its shape in order to fit in the space. Now it is inside the city, but the exactly fit makes it unable to move.

the little things

The little things in life are always the most important ones.

Like when your purchase at a store come out to a perfect number (example: $3.00)
You find a $1 bill on the ground.
When you receive a smile from a unsuspecting stranger.
Sticking your hand outside the rolled down window of a car.
Laying in the grass and looking out at the clouds.
Getting a milk mustache.
Drinking hot coco on a snowy night.
Clipping your fingernails.


It's moments like these that we always remember.

Creativities

Your First

I was thinking of a video that started off with a question and then the animation would be all of the different answers to the question.

"Do you remember the first..."

...date you had
...time you felt heartbreak
...you laughed so hard you couldn't catch your breath
...time you cried
...time you were mad at your parents
...friend you ever had
...time you scraped your knee
...person to compliment you on your appearance
...time you got 1st place
...time you got last place
...secret you had
...lie you told
...time you let someone run there hand through your hair
...love of your life

Slide

I like my red slide.
It's here that I know where I can hide. 

It's higher than high.
I feel like I will reach the sky.

When I reach the top I love the feel of the breezy wind in my hair.
I will rush down it, I don't even need a dare.

From up here  everyone looks like tiny little ants. 
I feel like a king, the one with a marvelous glance.

Coming down it I think  what a thrill. 
This is a moment that no one can steal. 

Idea 05 - Friends-

A encounters his friend B in the street. As they talk, B feels extremely guilty because she can’t remember anything about A, but she still pretends that she does. It seems like A knows B so well that he knows about her home, sister… and even her 2 years old dog Lulu. After 5 hours of conversation, they both realized that they are totally strangers….…

B was mistaken for her twin sister...

my friend

story:
My best friend is way better then your best friend. My best friend is a trained ninja, with the lift of one finger he is able to kill 100 soldiers. He also has eyes on the back of his head so that when you're walking from behind him he can see you. He has been to every city in every country in the whole world, twice. My best friend is so amazing that only "I" can see him.

video game

the story:
I wish that my life was like my favorite video game! I would have super powers where I could fly like a bird and help people that get pushed off buildings from the bad guys. I would also have many different lives so that I can get shot but not die. 

Idea 02 - The monster that eats shadows -

Narrative (kid's voice): I used to sleep with lights on because I believed that there were monsters... till one night, I woke up and I actually saw monsters... They were eating shadows... The desks, chairs started to fly away as they lost their shadows. I turned the lights off so the monsters couldn't find my shadow... Today, I still believe that there are monsters and that's why I sleep with lights off.

Idea 01

A blind person tries to figure out an object in front of him/her. The animation shows the visual of what he sees... or better say, what he imagines... which is very different from the reality.

Note: the visual is always few seconds after the sound (since blind people hear first then imagine).
