For this particular story, I’ve been brainstorming the scenario throughout my mind for the past week. The information down below are just rough ideas. I understand from the critique that the entire story can change around, so I’m not personally keen or adamant to any specific idea of a scenario that I’ve listed, although I’m very interested in getting feedback or suggestions.
Story:
Roger is ecstatic that today is the day that he is going to teach his youngest son how to fly. Roger of course is confident that it won’t be too hard since he taught his first two offsprings to fly with no problems whatsoever. However, to his surprise, Roger Jr. is not a quick learner as his other siblings, which in result, makes Roger Jr. sad. In response to this, Roger starts searching for alternative methods to achieve making his son fly.
Setting: A park or a backyard
Ideas of what can happen at the park/backyard in animated short (in no particular order)
Roger Jr. isn’t getting the hang of flying and injures himself on first flight. Roger then desperately tries to start off more simple method to assist him to fly.
Roger covers Roger Jr. with a helmet, water-wings, and a pillow before sending his child to start flight again with Roger’s own alternative methods on how to fly.
Roger tries to find an alternate method of making his son fly by trying to tie a balloon onto him. Or maybe it can be the conclusion to how his son starts flying by running into a balloon vender and a balloon gets stuck on Roger Jr., which in result causes him to fly.
Roger tries to teach his son how to flap his wings, though Roger Jr. starts spinning his wings like a propeller. Roger then chases after his child desperately before he hurts himself.
Roger ties a balloon on his child to help in flight, but Roger Jr. starts to float away.
Roger attaches a bottle-rocket on child to help him fly.
Roger uses a teeter-totter to try to hoist up his son into the air.
Roger attaches a kite to Roger Jr.
Roger attaches a remote control airplane to Roger Jr.
Some funny potential ideas listed! I would like to see you break down the events - how does the day begin? Who's story will it be? How do we learn that Roger Jr. isn't so good at flying? Get much more specific and incorporate some of your gag ideas.
