Video idea

My idea is to take and animate using my body a tree growing. Im going to have my slinking into screen walking as if im a long lanky elephant. Then from there i will foundation myself in a pencil shape form facing the screen. After this i will lower my head so the top of my head shows and slowly raise my arms. From there i will open each finger and have branches sprout from my finger tips. in the backgound i want a simpe white to allow the veiwer to stay concentrated on the growing of the tree.
