The document proposes an animation to promote the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The animation would tell the story of a boy in the hospital who wishes to ride in a race car. As he makes his wish, a shooting star passes that is the Make-A-Wish logo. His wish is then granted as a race car is brought into his room. The goal is to educate people about Make-A-Wish and encourage donations so seriously ill children can live out their dreams. The proposed animation would likely use stop motion with Lego figures, though clay may also work. Feedback noted Lego would not convey emotion as well as needed.
1. My pitch on the
‘make a wish
foundation’
By Harry
2. The make a wish foundation was founded in the
united states, it is a non profit organization that
arranges experiences (known as wishes) to children
with life threatening medical conditions, in order to
qualify for a wish the child must be between the
ages of 3 and 17, the physician of the child decides
whether or not the child is eligible for the
foundation, its just $15 to give seriously ill children a
chance to live their dreams.
3. Idea
Idea: my idea is to have a young child at
a hospital who's wish is to ride in a race
car, so the boy gets out of his bed and
makes his way to the window where he
then wishes for a race car, as he does this
a shooting star goes past, the star that
goes past is the ‘make a wish’ logo so the
boy makes his way back to his bed where
a race car is then brought in to his room
by the ‘make a wish foundation’.
4. concept
The concept of my idea educate people
about what ‘make a wish’ is and what
they can do to help children live their
dream as they are terminally ill.
This is a small video which is the current advertisement for
‘make a wish’ showing who hey are and what they do –

5. Mode of animation
The mode of animation I
will be using to make this
animation will most likely
be Lego as it is easy to
move around and put in
positions that will make
my animation look more
professional, I will also be
using plastacine as it is
also easy to mould and
shape into things that
would make the
animation look better. I
would also most likely be
using stop motion
animation to put my
animation together

would go for if I used Lego –

8. Target audience
My target audience for this animation is
for the parents of the sick children so they
can help their child live their dream/wish
so that they can enjoy something and
enjoy their last moments doing something
that they have always wanted to do.
9. Feedback
She likes the idea
Lego does not allow you to show the
emotion of the situation, therefore you are
not appealing to the target audience.
