    Animation Series Pitch

    Discussion in 'Plot Development' started by MilesTro, Dec 14, 2007.

    I couldn't wait long. This is an Animation Bible pitch, which I want to submit to a cartoon studio. I would like to know if this concept is good or unorignal. And any possible errors to find. I haven't started on the pilot yet, because I want to make sure this concept is fine. I'm still working on the Mech Hunter script, and the synopsis to the script will be done. So what do you think of this cartoon show?

    CONCEPT

    A team of half human half dog teenagers travel around the world for an incredible adventure. Their job, is to find mysterious animals and reveal the creatures to the world.

    In a world when technology is advancing, there are monsters lurking in the wild. Monsters, which are from legends and other story tales. Some of them could be dragons, mermaids, Big Foot, the Loch Ness Monster, Minotaurs, werewolves, giant spiders, giant squid, centaurs, and other unknown natural creatures. All about to be discover in the history of man.

    The enemies are poachers, thugs, intelligent monsters, and a greedy business man. They only care about wealth, power, and destruction. And they will stop at nothing, until they get what they want.

    The Play Dogs genre is a mix of science fiction, comedy, action, and adventure. The series will have character driven stories and the focus on the science of cryptozoology. Cryptozoology is the study hidden animals, which are not yet discover.


    WHY

    The reason I think your studio should consider this show, because kids will enjoy it. It will have action pack adventures, fictional monsters, anthromorphic characters, suspense, and silly cartoon humor. Eye grabbing mystery, robots, future weapons, and some twisted plots.
    All the monsters will not be typical super natural creatures. They will just be animals, but strange animals. None of them will have magical powers. Some will be known legendary monsters like the Sphinx, Sirens, and unicorns. And some of them will be genetic engineered mutants.
    But most will be made up to expand the young viewers’ imagination. It would be boring if the monsters are just known mythical creatures. That is why I recommend made up creatures. Plus this will give the artists creative ideas to establish for this show.
    All will have scientific explanation to become believable. Plus the monsters will not come from alien planets or another dimensional world. They will all live on Earth in hidden places.
    Not all the monsters will be kept a secret. In this world, everybody finds out the monsters are real, and The Play Dogs become famous for their discoveries.
    The Play Dogs series is all about exploration and the theories of monster existence. Cryptozoology is the main theme of this show.



    SETTING

    The setting will be a near future modern period on Earth. There are laser weapons, robots, cyberpunk cities, and etc. Governments and cities still have their original names, but they all have new technology. Cars are electric; gasoline cars are now rare. Planes and helicopters are flying hover crafts. Robots replaced human workers in dangerous jobs.
    Computers run businesses, security, education, research, and living conditions for the people. Factories and cars releasing pollution became illegal to protect environments. That is why gasoline cars are rare. Everything runs on electricity and unlimited solar power. New inventions are still in progress to make the world a better place to live.

    TPD EQUIPMENT

    ANI-TRACKER: A prime device, which The Play Dogs use on their expeditions. It is a hand held computer made to detect or scan unknown animal readings like footprints and pieces of hair. Built with an A.I chip, it can tell if the readings are from a known animal or unknown animal.
    It is very handy and helps The Play Dogs solve the mysteries quicker. With it, it doesn’t take long to figure out the creature’s where about.
    The Ani-Tracker is the size of a game boy and it can fit into a pocket. Without it, it would be tough to find the creature. And the evidence could become in conclusive.

    VEHICLE

    THE EXPLO: A flying research lab, which is basically a hover jet. EXPLO stands short for explorer. It flies by using anti gravity boosters. Think of it like a helicopter, but without the rotors.
