Brainstorm Blog #3

I have always felt like there is more to an animal than what is already known. In my dream reality, I want to look at a squirrel’s thoughts. What does a squirrel think about all day? Could they have dreams and aspirations? Do they get embarrassed? Do they feel like they are destined for greatness? My story is going to follow multiple thoughts of a squirrel. I may do more than one squirrel to show that different squirrels have different thoughts, but I don’t know how to convey to the audience that the squirrels are different, unless they look VERY different already. For one of the squirrels, I want them to think of themselves as a superhero; they fight crime. For fun, I will also have insects become unnecessarily large. Who hasn’t imagined saving the day from giant insects? As my story is ending, reality will set back in for the squirrels. For my audio, I will make a bunch of punching sounds and grunts. Maybe I will add a few “pow”, “blam”, or “thunk” words popping up on the screen. I would want some sort of music in it. Maybe a training montage?? Or the final battle. Whatever it is, it has to be important since actual music is minimally allowed. I am excited to mess around with the mechanics and make a weird video about squirrels.
