This 2 minute animation treatment combines stop motion and flash animation to tell the story of a mannequin who dreams of being a footballer. In his dream, shown through flash animation, the mannequin plays football, but he is hit by the ball and wakes up. The stop motion then shows him unhappy as he gets up to go to his office job. The target audience is older teenagers and those who enjoy short films, and the film could potentially be distributed on YouTube and shown during ads or at film festivals.
