Pitch
Elevator Line: A young girl undergoes intense training to face her fear of….kittens.
Theme: Facing Fears
Premise/Explanation of Theme: The best way to conquer one’s fear is to face it head on.
Short Synopsis: The Main character's name is Mae, a 12 year old girl who is a shy and introverted middle school student .It’s 11:41 in the morning, Mae is having lunch in the school's courtyard with her two best friends, Stacey and Amber, when her crush, Coree, approaches their table and seems to be looking for something. As Coree walks up to the table a baby kitten jumps out of the tree and lands on-top of the lunch table. Mae has a panic attack and becomes embarrassed when she realizes Coree is watching her and she rushes off to the girl’s bathroom. She washes her face trying to pull herself together. Looking into the mirror, Mae decides she never wants to be embarrassed like that again, so she plans to overcome her fear of kittens. After school her friends help train her to be unafraid of kittens by setting up an obstacle course of paper cats and toy cats to help prepare her for the real thing. When Mae, faces a real cat she cracks under pressure and runs away to the lake behind the school and begins to cry. She hears the baby kitten's cry or help though her sobs. When the kitten is in danger of drowning Mae finds courage and saves the kitten. Coree witnesses her courageous act and gives her a kiss on the cheek for saving his kitten.

Cover Letter and Resume for Jabberblabber Inc.
After some extensive research on this company I've decided to create a cover letter and apply for an internship position at Jabberblabber Inc. It seems as though it might be a good fit for me as of right now. I know there are things I have to workout on this cover letter before I send it off so it's a good thing we're working on editing this in class today.
I want to add the same design on my cover letter so it can match my resume but that might not be the wisest thing to do in the world.....but whatever :)

Demo Reel
I plan to have two demo reels before I leave MCA. An animation reel and a character design reel. I will work on the Character design reel first because it's easier and takes less time and I already have many characters that I've created and really need to do something with. I will post the layout of both demo reels will look in the near future.
Added Internship Opportunity
I also may apply to Prodigy Arts for an internship since they really seem like they want to be involved with MCA students.
Where to go Next for BFA
For the last and final time for my BFA project I will be creating a character turn around sheet for each of my 5 characters (Mae, Carie, Amber, Coree, and Milo the kitten). Each will have 5 different views and I will have a character height sheet for each one. After that I will create character emotions and gesture sheets for each one to show their personalities and next I will have a color palette for the piece created. The next step is to have the backgrounds sketched out and complete! Then the storyboard is next.
All of this I plan to have created and done before November 1, 2013. After Novemeber 1, I will have the backgrounds complete and then I will be ready to to the under drawings/gestural drawings of the characters complete so next semester I will do clean up work, add sound, and be done with this project!
