My pitch to my Character Design group for our group project:
"Family
owned & operated since the Nile started flowing, Palace Pizza is the
best pizza place in all of Egypt. While mom lavishly enjoys the wealth
and glory her business gives her, her husband happily makes pizzas on
pizzas on pizzas, sending them out for top-quality delivery by their son
via camel-back. The son has become an expert at avoiding/outsmarting the demon Ammit who is always trying to steal herself a hot
fresh box of pizza."
More of a comedy, but a pitch none the
less. This way there are three humanoid characters, 1 cute animal, and 1
toothy demon, which could play to all of our strengths as character
designers.
We can stretch this tv-show-type idea into a movie
easily (maybe the demon has had enough and wants to take over the pizza
place, maybe they are tired of paying for pizza, etc). We could also
raise the stakes to more of a monarchy (maybe in this world, the
king/queen/prince actually serve the public this way).
Here's the link to some info on "Ammit" (we would be changing the idea of soul-eater into pizza-eater) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammit"
