StopMotion Animation - Generating ideas

I have been asked to create an Animation using some form of Stop Motion. It must last a minimum of 15 Seconds Long. I can create it any way i want using any StopMotion Technique and it can be about anything i want.
First i will take a look at some short Animations i can find on the internet and hopefully get some ideas.

I found this one on Youtube. i thought it was very well made however, i thought it was a little slow paced and might have been funnier had it been a little quicker, but it was very well made in terms of the quality of the clay Models and the Animation itself.

This one is very well made, it is a bit gory but very well made. 

Out of the two things i have looked at so far, i think it would be good if i could find some kind of Middle ground between them.

If i'm looking at Clay animation or model based animation, i feel that you cant ignore Wallace and Gromit. It is a massively popular television series which has inspired thousands of people to try and create there own animation.  

From some of the Videos i have added to this blog, and more that i will look at in my own time, i will try and get some kind of idea of what i could include into my own animation, baring in mind that mine only needs to be 15 seconds long, so it doesn't need to be overly elaborate. 

I will update with a new post soon with any ideas i may have and what i will do from there on.
