Ideas for animation


My first idea was to create an animation for racial representation and how people of a certain ethnic background have their features changed to appeal to a specific audience. The animation was supposed to have hands drawing a black female character with her original features, with a late need to change her based on her looks into a desirable image.


This idea is based on the sexualisation of women and the figures being changed to suit an mans view on a woman. Similar idea to the one above based on modified female character who is changed to the point where she is no longer in proportion.



This the storyboard for my original idea and the steps to how women are changed in animation based on changing the looks of of women with in animation e.g. enlargement of eyes, hair colour, lip enlargement and deconstruction of the face.


After

I decided that the above ideas would be too long to develop and did not communicate what I wanted it to so I decided to create a figure like woman that would be adjusted and enlarged in parts of her body to make her look, the character is made to look like she wants these major changes made and her body at the end is no longer in proportion according to the female human figure.
