Proposal and Characters: Fazuki's Doom of Slush
How I got the idea for Fazuki's Doom of Slush, was that I learned about the Stone Age, watched a few stone age shorts, and watched the trailer for Early Man (which I am seeing next Saturday). I am a big fan of dinosaurs and caveman. I wanted to make a feature that no one would ever create and that was based on the stone age. The idea for the characters and the reason why I wanted to use card to make the characters, because I learned how to draw characters out of card, when I was at Flycheese Productions as Parson Cross, Sheffield. I was 17 years old when I did my first project out of card, The Familiar Trapsite, which I created and animated back in 2014. The card characters were mainly inspired by the 1970s series, Paddington Bear.

The idea for Fazuki, was based on Scrat, the saber-toothed squirrel from Ice Age, just the impersonation of him, the design of Fazuki, is that he is a prehistoric toucan, with a long beak, black feathers, and a yellow-y orange-like claws. He doesn't talk much, except for a little Spanish, as he is portrayed as a meek, helpless character. Though by his appearance, he may look intimidated, and petrified. He can become brave, strong, fearless, defensive, powerful and smart. Whenever anyone is mean or spiteful to him. He does not give up, with a little of believing and positivity, he fights back. The screams are mainly based on Scrat, as I have watched the first three Ice Age movies (4 and 5 aren't that good in my opinion). When I recorded the screams for Fazuki, during my spare time at home in my bedroom. I though that if a prehistoric bird had screams, it would a make funny and entertaining entrance. What I said was "if I had an idea based on a recurring character, I would make a bird parody the main character of my future career". I give credit to Chris Wedge, for inspiring my character Fazuki.
How the short will work, is that Fazuki, the Patriarch leader and his tribe and the various animals, will be moved by hand but with the shots taken when the hands are out of the shot. I will need blue-tac to make them stand when not moving.
The idea for the Patriarch leader, was based on the Neanderthal father from the Minions movie. Even though he is a lot smarter than the Neanderthal father, the Patriarch leader is as bulky, arrogant, boastful and stronger than the Neanderthal father.
The rest of the cavepeople tribe are based on various modern human characters.
The purple and pink haired female cavewoman is based on Nikki Wong, also from 6teen. The brunette cavewoman is based on Sam from Totally Spies and a certain British celeb, Keira Knightley. The bald headed caveman is based on Elmer Fudd from the Looney Tunes series, but without the personality.The blonde cavewomen are based on a few characters, Clover, also from Totally Spies, The Clones, also from 6teen, and Sharon Spitz from Braceface. The last two were based on actual cavepeople. Including the animal-skinned rugs and clothing. The language they speak is Gormithian, a suburb of the stone age land, Gormithia. The only word they speak in English is "Mommy/Mama" when they are easily defeated and outwitted.
As for the animals in the story, the main ones are Diatrymas, a prehistoric bird based on the birds from Ice Age.The War Mammoth, however, is based on Col. Hathi, from the 1967 Disney classic The Jungle Book the personality anyway. And Manny, from Ice Age, yet again. This mammoth is an American General and does not speak in a British accent.The Ferzilingaria ('s) (Fur-zill-in-gaa-rhea) are turnip headed, small trunked creatures. Based on the prehistoric animals, The Start, also from Ice Age. The male has a white head, a pink body and does not have an udder. While the female has a pink head, a white body and a brown stripe in the middle of her body and has an udder to feed her young some milk. Unlike the start, they are not fully pink.The Chasmosaurus is a type of horned dinosaur which belongs in the Triceratops family.The Aardvark is a minor animal, at this time. There is mainly one aardvark. His characteristics are based on various surfer dudes. He also goes through cavepeople's animal-skinned rugs to see if any ants, fleas or bugs are in them. The pterodactylus is a minor flying dinosaur, in the Northern surburb of Gormithia. It feeds on fish, young critters and various small reptiles. There is only one in the short film and it speaks like an army soldier. The Iguanodon is a genus of ornithopod dinosaur who has a claw for a thumb (thumb spike). It is a herbivore. In the short film, he speaks in a New York-Italian accent. The Velociraptor is a genus of dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 75 to 71 million years ago during the later part of the Cretaceous Period. Two species are currently recognized, although others have been assigned in the past. In Gormithia, there is one velociraptor who has a major appearance (though others are not seen), but brief and speaks with a lisping American accent, similar to Sylvester.
