Story Idea - Anthropomorphism version of 'Red Riding Hood'

I've been dreaming about new stories for my animated short. Forgotten a few purly because my notebook was downstairs and by the time i got there the dream had gone. I hate when that happens.
Any way, one that I remember and thought was an interesting idea was a anthropomorphism version of a Fairy Tale such as 'Red Riding Hood'. Instead of the girl it could be a kitten and the granny could be an old cat, the wolf could stay a wolf or change to be a dog. I imagined it in a very Ghibli kind of style.
An idea I came up with later with the fairy tale story in mind was making it into a modern version or like in a modern cats life type of way, kind of reminds me of Tom Kitten from the Beatrix Potter books.
My idea is that the kitten catches a mouse or his/her mum gives the kitten a mouse and tells the kitten to take it to its grannys garden/house. Off the kitten goes and could meet challenges or other animals on the way.
The bit with the gran and the wolf would happen but it may have to be a clothed type of anthropomorphism because of the dog/wolf dressing as the granny to trick red riding hood. Unless I can come up with a good way of twisting it without clothes. Maybe the dog could have the same colour fur as granny and just pin his big ears so they look smaller and point up and maybe curl his tail because the granny's does... something like that. Any way, as far as I can think the story pretty much carries on and finishes as the original.

The only problem I have with this is the fact that fairy tales have been done over and over. I like the idea of oringinality or a twist of an original thats not been done before. If I found out that nothing like my idea has been done then I would be happier about doing it as my animation.

Idea - Possible pretty animation

I couldn't sleep last night so was sleepily trying to think of more ideas. I looked out the window and suddenly my mums cat jumped up. This made me come up with a little idea.

A person could be curled up looking out a window and suddenly a bird flies by. The person watches it and then the camera follows the bird, sometimes looking as if the bird as well. I imagined leaves flying around too a bit like in the Disney's Pocahontas. It then flies towards the floor as if to land and turns into a cat. It then follows the cat with the same kind of feel. It then changes into various animals experiancing their lives. It then could come back to the person at the window and a tear drops followed to the floor and the person could be in a prison or in a wheelchair or something like that to show how they cant do those things.

I imagined painting backgrounds sort of like the russian dog animation I posted earlier but then have the animals in 3D but maybe distort them a bit after. Like animate them and then do a painted type effect in after effects or photoshop after. Might make it look really unusual and new and maybe a bit weird.

I thought I could do a lot of experiments with it too. Like when the animals change they could transform or maybe change in a puff of smoke or you could just see the shadows change.

Idea based on a dream - The Bikers

I had a dream the other night that was set like an animated series. It had a very south park feel and even had titles!

It was called 'The Bikers' and the characters looked like a mix of my original sprite of Matt mixed with the south park characters. It started with 3 guys who were my mates, Matt, Chris and Dan. They were talking about some random stuff about bikes and girls when suddenly Gwil walks in and they offend him loads with welsh jokes and stuff. My memory goes foggy then and I can't remember what happened next but I remember a bit further on where the 3 blokes are walking to town. On the way Dan really needs the loo but are no where near any so he hangs his bum off a bridge while the others hold his legs. It then cut to Ben who was kayaking down the river below, whistling to himself. Suddenly there is a groan and ben looks up and then splat.
Thats all I can remember but I woke up giggling to myself for quite a while.

I just liked the south park feel, mixed with bikers, comedy and rudeness. Yeah, I can be a bit imature even in my dreams. I thought that I could tinker with my dream and make it into a short film. Thats why I thought I should put it on here so I won't totally forget about it and can think about it. Possibly ad ideas to it.
