Concepts for miniature

1) Lego village destroyed by little giant dog.
2) A day in the life of a dust mite. Showing everyday life through the eyes of a dust mite being swept out from under and then out into the world.
3) I want to focus on what it was to be a child playing in the grass down at eye level with the bugs. Where grass became giant trees and the insects became monsters of a forgotten land. Where toy soldiers become the heroes only spoken of in myth.

  1. I'm torn between 1 and 3. Maybe a combination? you could show the lego village being built by the child in the grass (i think stop motion would be really neat) and then you could show some little toys moving about in it, and then it could all be destroyed by the dog...I don't know, but I find the idea of legos and grass to be a very visually appealing combination. So maybe run with that.

  2. I think your ideas should all be combined in a way. I like your idea of the angles in the dust mite one. I think it would be interesting to film like this, from a very very small point of view instead of just a child's point of view. What would a lego village look like from a dust mites perspective? You could have the toy soldiers build the lego village and watch it happen from the dust mites view. I think it would be stronger to never see a child or a dust mite make the toys the main subject. Overall, i think the combination of all three would make an interesting piece with multiple layers.
