A parody of prescription drug commercials, and my graduate thesis project.

Background reference
What I'm thinking for a background is something simple. A long hall like these from the Milwaukee art museum. A long hall could represent the life line with the rafting equaling the notches of his life. And having it stark in contrast to the Dan's image shows that nothing in his life is as important as his own appearance. Plus it almost looks like a sci-fi hospital! I think that's why it was used as a setting for the "Lipitor" commercial too. Should be fairly easy to model as well, I can get away with using instances (Thanks Jeff!) for the supports to keep my geo down.
"Thanatol" is a 45 sec 3D character animation which parodies prescription drug commercials.
Synopsis
Enter a virile, attractive, middle aged man who's demeanor is no less than confident to the point of arrogance. ed.(Enter a withered, visibly upset, old man.) After popping a pill from a bottle sitting on a nearby table, ed.(he miraculously becomes younger, around middle aged, and more arrogant in demeanor.) After displaying his exuberance, his mood drastically changes as he begins to suffer the harmful / lethal side effects that come with the benefit of Thanatol.
