Applied Animation - Possible Titles

For the titles brief i need to choose a book to make a title sequence for however i am a slow reader and i don't read much other than manga so i had to rack my brains to come up with something that hadn't already been prior made into a feature and after some thinking i came up with three possibilities that i could consider.

The first was the comic series bone. While i didn't want to work with a comic series as i felt i would need to work with the style, i find the story of Bone to be interesting the exploits of bone and his friends , their mishaps and adventures with fun humour coupled with every aspect of an exciting adventure with something much bigger than themselves hanging over the top of them.

Bones character designs really vary with a wide variety of shapes and sizes in them but a consistency seems to be there however. Theres bone and his species, the rat creatures as well as humans meaning theres a wide variety to work with.



the second was Eragon, a fantasy epic which will include fast paced and grand battles, wars and duels on the backs of dragons and other fantasy creatures. I haven't read it in a long time so my memory of it is fuzzy, meaning i would have to reread it which will take time as i am a slow reader.

Eragon has previously already been made into a very badly rated movie (16% on Rotten Tomatoes) so i think it will be good to make an opening that would actually be pleasing and entertaining as well as exciting.




The third book i came up with was Assassins Creed Renaissance. It is one of the books from the assassins creed (AC) series which was originally a game series by ubisoft. I have played AC 4 and parts of the second and it is a gam series i really enjoyed so i have some knowledge along with the urge to read the book.

I don't know the story but i can definitely say its action packed as a series with gradual suspense because of the assassinations as well as political moments which would be an interesting chance to introduce characters of the series, however i have never prior read it so i don't think ill use it though.




The book I'm using, i decided, is Eragon. It was between either this or Bone, my reason for choosing it was while Bone would of been a lot faster to read through as a graphic novel i wouldn't of had the chance to work on character design like with Eragon. My plan for documenting Eragon is to with a lot of posted notes i would note down events, character descriptions and sceneries from the book.
