Nosferatu Film- The 11 Second Animation Competition

While I was surfing on the internet and looking for opportunities to send animation to help me get recognized, I came across a character animation film festival called, "The 11 Second Club", it is basically a film festal where you make an 11 second animated short film, (In any animation medium, Hand Drawn, Computer, and even Stop Motion), send it to the website where it can be featured and there is a competition every month, where one film is picked, and the artist is rewarded. I bursted with excitement, how exciting!, every month! It is also only an 11 second film, how perfect to prefect my animation and make it my "Magnum Opus" or my Masterpiece in a way. I started coming up with ideas for the film, but then I had a great idea. When I was 4 years old, I saw a film that would change my life forever... Fw Murnau's Classic 1922 Masterpiece, Nosferatu. I actually got introduced to this film from animation since it appeared on an episode of "Spongebob Squarepants", but most people are introduced to it from that show. It changed my life, I wanted to be a filmmaker for the longest time, very early. It lead me to my passion, animation. How perfect to pay a tribute to it through the magic of animation! What I wanted to do was come up with some sort of a gag I could put Orlok (The vampire), into. Since It was animation I needed to characterize the famous character. These are some early sketches of trying to design my version of nosferatu (Im not saying they're great sketches, I was just wanting to get a face. Here is a drawing I recently did, but the face is too cartoony and exaggerated, it doesn't look like the character at all. Here are some pages from my sketchbook, sorry for the image but there is no way I am tearing out pages from my sketchbook. Once I get that character to caricature nosferatu, I can start creating my "Magnum Opus".
