COP- Mind Map



Here, I created a mind map to explain my initial idea. I decided to focus on the more iconic look of females, which is why I have chosen to take inspiration from Jessica Rabbit.

From the visual research I have accumulated so far, I have decided to focus mainly on the body image aspect of animations. I have decided to mainly focus of Jessica Rabbit because she is an iconic, animated sex- symbol.

My concept is to have a Jessica Rabbit-esque character fall in love with someone from the "real world." She then finds a witch to give her a potion that changes her appearance to fit with the real world that she wants to live in to be with her love. This "real world" transformation will leave her with a realistic body. 

The main character is going to resemble Jessica Rabbit because she is viewed as a recognisable sexualised, animated female.

My aim with this concept is to bring to light the irony of how women are depicted in classic animations. They are often presented as reluctant, "beautiful" and also quite dumb. I will probably create an animatic to go with my concept that involves some sounds and a little movement.
