Extended Practice: Animation Choice

Over the past month i've been mulling over two ideas for my animation. I've narrowed my idea down to the point where I know i want to make a VR animation, and that i'll be doing the character design. It was either going to be an animation centring around themes of death and watching over a family as they deal with the death of the father in the house. It was going to be erethreal as all the characters would be shadows. The other idea was an animation about a huldra kidnapping a viking and killing them, roughly put. I decided to go with the viking idea, as it would give me a chance for more detailed characters and help push my skills in 3D character modelling considerably.
