We've decided to focus our idea on a classic instruction video that follows the rules of how to be a superhero, set around the 1950's time period. With a potential voice over, they could narrate and instruct what we see on screen, which of course will be supported by the visuals of our main character on screen.
Our main character will be an adult who lives with his mother still, and their lair/HQ is the backyard shed. Inside could have homemade gadgets that they've made, that are failed. The superhero costume could be something that they've designed and made at home, with a makeshift utility belt for example. Instead of scouting the streets like most heroes, this hero can stay at home with the comfort of safety. They could be a big fan of superheroes and ultimately try to be like them, despite the fact that this character is only a human and they don't actually save anyone at all.
This idea allows us to consider a wide array of potential opportunities and opens up multiple doors for skit ideas and the rules that we get this character to show, which are still yet to be determined. We need to stick to a suitable color scheme and fluent art direction, that conveys the time period and theme correctly.
Below are some influences that we've looked at, and videos that inspired this idea.
