Exploring two of my ideas

Idea 1(Uni-Tight rope):
In this idea, it starts off with at of complications all the way through his extreme journey man on a uni-cycle balancing on a tight rope who has a lot of complications wobbling all over the place. Half way through his extreme journey he stumbles and his foot slips off the peddle, and he spins round the rope a few times. When he gets to the other end of the tight rope, he wipes his forehead with his arm letting out a sigh of relief. He then gets his drink out of his pocket and takes a sip. When he pulls his drink away from his mouth, a pigeon flies in his face and attacks him. Whilst being attacked he waves his arms all over the place and falls off the cliff screaming. As you can see we have gone for a humourus animation, which will be cartoony. We are hoping that the audience find it funny.
Although I think that this idea is really good, it could also go wrong. The problem with doing an animation using cartoon characters is that you have to frame each movement, and I really want it to look like a well presented cartoon, and not a really bad animation. It could go bad because the movement might be too fast, and also the characters might be out of place or wrongly sized, for example: in one frame they might be quite small, but in the next frame they have suddenly got bigger. to stop this from happening we will have to be precise with every frame we do.

Idea 2(Fighting Force):
My second idea would be to have two people fighting in the street, punching each other, and then one of them gets knocked out. The one which knocked the guy out, runs away, but later gets caught by the police and gets taken to jail. This idea is much more serious, and shows people the risk of fighting in two ways. you could get knocked out and maybe brain damage or even die, and if you are the one who runs and leaves the person there, you could get caught and taken to jail. If I was to do this idea, it would be using real people and not cartoons. I think that this idea would be easier than idea one, but I feel that I want something challenging, and something that will push the boundries, which is why i prefer the first idea.

I think that I am swaying towards doing idea one, as I think it will be funner to work on and I also think that using a humourus animation on risk, will get the audience watching and laughing, but at the same time taking note of what happend, and to think twice of trying fun, but dangerous things like sky diving and things like that.
