so far i have a few nice ideas including twists. Tell me what you think, or if it reminds you of anything. These are all wrote short for the blog.
Imagine a girl walking down the street, suddenly she stops and makes a run for it. legging it through the streets she keeps looking over her shoulder, or looking for somewhere to hide. until finally she gets back to her flat. When she gets in you see her rush to the toilet. Then a 5sec pause and 'AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH'.
A girls in her room when she gets a text from her boyfreind saying hell be round to pick her up in 3 mins. She is now in a mad rush to get ready, while her bf is walking to her flat. He gets there and knocks on the door. To the surprise of the man she answers it dressed in a over the top clown suit.
A lonely clown wanders the streets, with his hands in his pockets and looking glum. He walks into a shop but straight away gets chucked out by the owner. He carries on walking and gets appraoched by a gang of hoddies. They circle him and begin pushing and taking the mickey. He gets away and runs around the corner, and jumps in a bush. The gang run straight past him and loose him. He then walks off, and sits on a wall with his hands on his chin. Then a car drives past and hurls abuse, milkshakes and burgers at him. He now looks suiscidle. But then walks a girl clown also with her hands in her pockets and looking glum. They instantly make eye contact and walk off hand in hand in a utopia of love.
But then a hooded man runs up to them and shoots the girl in the back of the head.
Id like to think of a plot that could include animation on top of film. so if youve seen any let me know.

Some initial thoughts:
Man, the second clown one is dark but I guess you have that coming to you if you wander the streets dressed like that. Yeah it might work for its shock value - people would endear and sympathise with the clown character as the film goes on and the shot in the back of the head would reeeeally be a big twist. I certainly didn't see it coming. People would be gutted for the poor clown dude.
The girlfriend/boyfriend one: a bit more light hearted :). It would be funny if the guy honked his nose and gave the girl a bunch of flowers that squirt her with water. Could make it all dead serious with a hectic atmosphere and then have the dude stood there as she opens the door with a big grin and face paint. Yeah that would be really funny.
The first one: toilet humour can work, well it made me laugh anyway. Reminded me of one an advert shown a while back where some guy is running away from a shop and they make it look as if he's a robber but in fact he's chasing one. Or the other way round, can't remember. For some reason this is my favourite (maybe it's my slightly infantile sense of humour...) though they are all good.
i think the girlfriend in a rush could be a good vid, maybe think about different outfits but it would be nice to see her trying to put clown make-up on.
the second clown one is good, a bit like the daft punk video with the man-dog and his radio walking round new york. not to sure about the girl clown gettin' shot at the end. i think its the best out of the 3 but the end needs work.
www.stardust.tv - its a film/animation company, dunno if they'll have what your looking for but theres a few bits under WORK that use film and animation, not so much hand drawn though.
I like the second one the best just because it was funny and again i can really visualise the whole thing.
I like the third idea but I think it seems a bit evil, I thought he had found love and then she gets shot in the head, thats harsh.
