Saskia's and Anastacia's Final Storyboard.....YIPPEE

At last, Saskia and I have a final storyboard, after many emails, must be a record. Very different from our last idea, but I think it will work really well, and is very visual. The timings will probably change this is more of a guide. To see visual storyboard please see Saskias blogsite.

1. Split screen, tree in centre separates two characters, one on each side. Moon/Sun/Stars animate in background. There is one watering hole, which the tree is growing out of. Roots are in water. Grass in foreground. Background sky changes from night to day etc and repeats. Sun rotates round accordingly. Watering hole constantly moving. The watering hole is clean on both sides. Start at o seconds

2. DAYTIME: PP already on screen moving. He is happy, making sounds, whistling/humming to himself. Knocks his pump on his head to make sure its working. Puts his pump petrol into water contaminating it, might giggle to himself. (5 seconds)

3. DAYTIME: Lola walks or runs onto screen and starts to drink from the pool and is playing with the water etc. on the other side. She is happy splashing in water spraying water on herself and swinging her trunk. (comes in on 5 seconds -10 seconds 5 SECONDS) PP can do less at this point, just sound.

4. NIght: Both sides are busy, time flies by (day becomes night etc). Lola falls asleep and PP carries on pumping contaminating the water. The tree starts to die (as at night can't be too dark or won't see), branches fall off. (10-13 seconds 3 SECONDS)

6. DAYTIME: Leaves start to fall on PPs side from dieing tree. The water has changed colour and is more contaminated. (13-16 seconds 3 SECONDS)

7.DAYTIME: Lola wakes up and continues to play and drink. PP carries on pumping. (13 -16 seconds 3 SECONDS)

REPEAT:

8. NIght: Both sides are busy, time flies by (day becomes night etc). Lola falls asleep and PP carries on pumping contaminating the water even more. (16-18 seconds 2 SECONDS)

9. Night: The tree starts to die (as at night can't be too dark or won't see), branches fall off. (16-18 seconds 2 SECONDS)

10. DAYTIME: All the Leaves start to fall on both sides from dieing tree. The tree completely dies. The water has changed colour and is more contaminated, completely green from contamination or black. The Petrol has completely destroyed the tree. There is fumes coming from the watering hole. (18 seconds - 22 seconds 4 SECONDS)

11. DAYTIME: Lola is awake and has swallowed petrol from water and spits it out, choking sounds, the water is contaminated, as she makes these sounds PP notices her. (18 seconds - 22 seconds 4 SECONDS)

12. PP and Lola see each other as the tree falls. All of a sudden they are using the same pool, the petrol has destroyed the tree, which has died and disappeared (22 - 25 seconds 3 SECONDS)

13. Both characters both look surprised and shocked. (22-25 seconds 3 SECONDS)

14. PP feels ashamed at what he has done. he gasps, shakes his head and then slowly put his head down, sorry for what he has done. Lola, still coughing from contamination is sad, she shivers and chokes weakly. (25-28 seconds 3 SECONDS)

15. He pumps the petrol out of the pool leaving the water clean. (28-30 seconds 2 SECONDS)

16. Both characters are happy (28-30 seconds 2 SECONDS)

17. Lola sprays clean water into the air and a new little tree begins to grow. (28-30 seconds 2 SECONDS)

18. FADE OUT. (fade out on 30 seconds)
