Character design

Each should be based on analogues - these are evolutions of objects created by man.

Recycle s/b a man.

Antagonist - maybe a spider or scorpion.

Research -
Seven Samurai
Samurai Jack
Fistfull of Dollars

Cowboy mythology

What I have so far is an idea of recycled characters built out of found objects. Each should act in accord with their design. The beginnging is a chanacter forming. The end is the two characters being destroyed, and one reforming using some parts from the other.

So what's the middle?

Finally something to do research about - the myth of the cowboy, more specifically the mexican standoff/shootout. Tons to research about camera angles etc. Picked up Samurau Jack season 3 for camera angles. Use For A Few Dollars more too (end scene where Clint Eastwood takes over for Lee VanCleef).

Mano y mano, the two characters go at each other while others watch from the scenes. Recycled is protector, clockwork is agressor.
