"Marshmallow & Walter"

Two unusual characters:
one is a marshmallow who is called "Marshmallow"
one is a grasshopper (or maybe a cricket) who is called "Walter"

Walter, despite his tiny figure has a manly voice over with a British accent.
Marshmallow might be silent (we will decide about it later)

They will start a pretty long journey for a weird funny motivation,
they travel all over the world to reach their destination. After they got there, they seem happy for a few seconds, but it wont last long. In a funny way, they will express their dissatisfaction and decide to get back home.


Visual References

We are going for a simple living room set style. Minimum colors and simple shapes would help the focus of the frame to our characters.
This is a reference for face expression. We want the characters to look funny.

This is one of the possible approaches for the script. When the characters are having dialogues, we might use voice over or something similar to this, like attaching a paper to out character with the words on it!
or maybe one of the characters talks with a voice over, the other reply with the written paper!

This is how we want to make feet for "Marshmallow" character

Here the way Peter laughs, which is TOO long, funny and annoying at the same time
is kind of similar to what we are trying to get for the ending shot, when the characters reach their
final destination and are happy.
