New animated short on the way




What I have here is some first sketches of new characters for an animated flash short to be finished within 11 weeks, it needs to be around 3 minutes...this might be kinda tough.
This is for Advanced Web animation class. The story is... A gangster boss and a drug boss have an agreement to meet in a warehouse to exchange money for drugs. Eye contact is established, the Gang boss sets down a briefcase on a cable spool table...he opens the case facing the drug boss. The drug man looks down at the case in confusion and annoyance and says, "What the hell is this?" The camera cuts to a briefcase full of 100 dollar bill origami swans. The Gang boss keeps his cool for a beat and then explains that the drug dealer is on a candid camera show called, "Stung". the gang man laughs a bit and says something like, you shoulda seen the look on yer face and points to the camera. The drug dealer does not understand what is happening and asks seriously, "Alright wheres the real money?" The gangster starts getting uncomfortable and looks to camera crew for help. In a flash the police bash through the wall and the screen goes black and credits roll, a newspaper rolls up the credits with silly headlines like, "Two morons arrested" and smaller but visible will be an article about stationary...
