Depends on how long short is, if it's verbal non verbal, the wanted realism, do you want to do it alone, how much time do you have and how is it spread etc etc

Let's consider ;
you have 15 weeks and an x amount of time, you probably don't have much experience in 3d, i don't what it's for or if it needs a theme of some sorts, but i would start out with simple shapes/characters(like the blob) nothing to fancy.
