Sketching ideas for 3D Animation Project

Some ideas for the 3D Animation project:
Meditator walks into his meditation room.
Sits on a cushion. Tries to meditate.
Disturbed by noises outside, a fly etc...
Finally gets it together. Starts to levitate, and glow and bumps his head on the ceiling.
The End.

The main character could be a bulb. That might add a humorous element especially with the glowing. The bulb could be clear or frosted glass, depending on how hard it is to make it clear. We could use the filament as the mouth to allow the bulb to show some expression.

Not sure how to do the eyes? Indented? Use printed text on bulb for prints? Maybe one big eye that goes all the way around? The whole thing blinks!?

This is a great example of a frosted bulb with flaws, which would go well with our flawed meditator. This one is actually made out of concrete, pretty cool idea.
