Unfortunately, I don’t have images of some projects I had in mind, or I deleted them.
Idea 1: Jollibee’s Saving the Time (or something like that)
I used to be a fan of a Filipino bee, but I didn’t know some fans were… kind of weird, or that because they were Filipino they thought they knew better. Well, Jollibee is a Filipino restaurant haha.
Okay, what would this project be about?
Based on its title, “Saving Time,” it’s about Jollibee having to travel across different universes to save the timeline, because a deadly virus has entered to destroy Father Time, called Ding Dang Dong—a tower with a clock. This virus would manage to break the pieces that he carries in every multiverse, because Jollibee wouldn’t only go to find the pieces, but also his friends, since they tried to defend him, but the virus was strong enough to take them away. So Jollibee would try to rescue them, and Father Time would give him a small compass to guide him on his journey to find the pieces.
This project was going to be a video game where you could build your own Jollitown however you like and complete small missions from the citizens to improve your skills (for now, that’s all I have).
Why didn’t I continue with this project?
“I had some problems. The first one is the easiest: I don’t have knowledge in programming or the necessary equipment.”
“I didn’t see much potential because these characters aren’t very well known where I live. People only know them because there was a FNAF fan-made version of them, but it got taken down due to copyright.”
“I already have other projects in mind, and one project that’s been waiting for 9, almost 10 years.”
Conclusion: For now, I’d just like to share ideas, but due to lack of time and motivation, I can’t draw or make concept art.
Another one, this time called: Jollibee Fight of Restaurants (movie)
This would be a movie about competition and who is the best, but it would focus on why Ronald, the McDonald’s clown, would act as an antagonist who went through a bad time with his restaurant. Lately, I’ve seen some restaurants change their theme—it’s no longer childlike, now it’s modern and minimalist, where mascots or the McDonald’s crew aren’t shown anymore because they’re considered old or even scary haha.
So Ronald looks at Jollibee and wonders…
“How is this bee still standing without being fired? It’s really old!!! Why me? I don’t understand!!”
So Ronald would try to destroy his restaurant, but Jolli and his friends—Hetty, Twirlie, Yum, and Popo—would try to stop him. For now, that’s all I have. I had to discard that cliché where Jollibee, after seeing his restaurant destroyed, would go on vacation haha.
Why didn’t I continue with this project?
“Basically, these are very big projects, and since I don’t have a team of animators, I wouldn’t be able to handle it.”
“Lack of budget and equipment.”
“I already have other projects in mind, and one project that’s been waiting for 9, almost 10 years.”
These were two of the ideas I had in mind. Wait,
If you don’t know these characters, don’t worry. Here’s the link in case anyone wants to watch their series called Jollitown. I recommend trying to translate it or asking about it, since it’s in English with Tagalog.
