Proposal

The following text consists of my contribution to the group- writing the proposal of the product description:

This proposal has congealed all of the information that is necessary for a clear understanding of what the final piece should look like. As mentioned, this stop motion animation utilizes a variety of different sweets to convey the ‘norm’ of the stages of life a person would go through. The Starburst is going to be the sweet that demonstrates these phases. The general idea is to illustrate a person experiencing primary school, making friends as well as enemies, growing up, falling in love, starting a stable job, starting a family and eventually dying. All of these features being exhibited with a wide range of different sweets. These aspects tend to have a grasping effect on a general audience. As everyone can relate to at least one of the phases in life been shown, therefore it provides entertainment to a wide range of ages. Yet it does not exactly relate to every culture, religion or social group because it illustrates a generalised ‘perfect’ lifestyle that people dream of. Hence this product will establish a ‘fantasy lifestyle’, not only will the content of the storyline reveal this but the use of the objects being utilised (sweets). Nonetheless there will still be a sense of reality in this project as it will be experimenting with realistic sounds that will be generated using technology as well as being physically created without the use of technology by our group. Overall the combination of realism and dream like aspects will tend to create an amusing animation for a wide range of ages
