A HUGE thank to everyone who had the patience to watch the full storyboard.. I know, it is quite long but it's worth it.
I'm so sorry that I had no enough time to finish this submission as I wanted, but I'm still satisfied with the result and I must convince myself that I completed this course even though my full time work has been really hard these past few weeks it's a good result for me - 'cause of that drawings, audio and story here are rough and, in addition to this, some things are missing.
------------------------
Here the transcription:
nowadays
The scene opens in an interior, a girl is looking at herself in the mirror, she’s singing at the rhythm of a punk rock song.
She notices that someone is behind her, so she turns, a little bit surprised but then she feels comfortable with the presence of us: the audience.
We get closer, she presents herself to us: “well I'm not surprised! I'm famous here. I’m Ava Vladson, as known as the only vampire existing who's allergic to blood”.
The clock rings.
Ava is worried.
She moves quickly, runs through the room, opens a chest and starts to search for something in it, throwing clothes everywhere “I think I have no time to tell my story, I'm late for my 100th birthday party!!”.
Between clothes and other stuff she finds something interesting.
It's a photo, there's a young girl in a garden, happy.
Ava looks intensely at it, she's emotionally touched.
she says “i never thought i would be there today”.
Hundreds of years before.
There's a city, calm, dark, silent, columns of huge smoke that come out from chimneys, this is Blodingem.
and those are its inhabitants, some of them became rock and some others not yet.
Something particular is happening here. There is of loooong queue of vampires heading to a small counter.
We can see someone receiving its portion of a red liquid, its blood. the young boy who received it isn't satisfied with the portion, it is too few for him. an adult behind him try to comfort him, cause otherwise there's not enough blood for everyone.
We can see how the situation is worrying; the queue has no end.
A figure of a hunchbacked man who looks at the town from his window: he’s the king.
There's a close up of his hands, we notice that his hands are becoming stone.
We see his face, his expression. He's sad, and has a surrendered expression. we can see that his face is partially stone too... but he has a reason to smile: just some days ago his daughter was born. She's Ava.
In all this sorrow, this child is like fresh air and a symbol of good luck, even here there is hope for the future. The king and the queen show her to the whole town.
...... Some happy moments of everyday life together of a family.
Until one day …. something happens, the little girl starts to feel sick.
Now we see the little girl in her bed.
Her mother was looking at her through the door that's opened just a little.
The woman is sad, and the king arrives behind her to comfort her. She says: “She doesnt feel better” he replies “I'm so sorry, but i have no good news”.
Later we assist a discussion between the two. They are in a room similar to a kitchen or a wine closet.
He says “There's no other blood type I can find for her”.
She replies “How is it possible that Ava rejects all the blood we give her?”.
They are sad, almost crying, desperate.
We look at their hands from above, the king says “She too will start to petrify if we don't find a solution, it's only a matter of time”.
She rests her hands on top of his, trembling. We see her face, worried but smiling.
The king “ if we cannot find a solution here, the only thing we can do is to ask a witch for help”
the queen: “But you know that the witches are tricky….”
“We can only try with magic .. unfortunately the nearest witch who lives around here is the one we exiled cause she poisoned all blood stocks”.
They start their journey through the desert hills and valleys just to reach this witch’s mansion outside the reign. they are weak, it is a very hard journey.
Finally they arrive in front of a particular grocery shop.
She says “Oh! It's open! How lucky!”.
He knocks “Is there someone? Can we enter?” No one answers.
They’re quite upset. they turn the knob insistently to try to open the door. Nothing happens, the door won't open.
the queen: “Why this won't open?? It says it's open!!”.
They look inside through the window's door. No one is in there.
“Hellooo open please!! We need help!!".
When the king tries to kick the door, it magically opens before the king's feet touch it, he almost falls down.
They walk through this particular shop, it's all dark, full of particular objects. The door closes behind them by itself.
In this darkness there’s only a lightened small bell on the counter. They ring it.
Above them the witch suddenly appears. She has an unfriendly face, looks hostile.
The witch says: “Here we are, how a singular situation, u need help from ME”.
The king and queen explain the situation and the witch accepts to create something to help Ava to survive.
The witch starts the research.
While reading, she says to herself “I know already there's no solution to this but I will take advantage of this situation”.
After reading, she tells them she has a solution but it requires a lot of pure blood and materials to build a sort of “blood distiller”.
The queen: “Oh no! How can we ask our people to renounce more blood?”.
He answers “I know there's a few, it's the only way to save Ava and the future of our kingdom”.
They collected all the materials for the witch.
The king and the queen arrive at the witch mansion with lots of carts full of objects and blood.
She says “Don't u think that this is too much?”
King replies “I'm willing to do anything to heal my daughter, even if i will go into debt to the whole kingdom”.
The witch builds her “machine”.
Meanwhile, the king and queen wait outside.
“Why does it take so much?”.
“I'm worried too, Helen, be patient, we'll have the solution for Ava”.
The king touches his rocky face “....well, i hope so, i think i don't have much time left”.
The witch gives the potion to them, with an evil smile.
Immediately, the king and the queen give this potion to Ava.
The next day nothing changed. She's exactly the same. The queen starts crying. The witch has tricked them.
We can see how Ava's face started to become rocky too.
The king is alone in the dark in a room. Ava and Helen watch him from the door.
He touches his face. He's starting to dissolve into dust.
It's halloween, there's a parade through the cemetery for this occasion.
It's a long, slow, calm parade.
We can see how most of the vampires are becoming rocky and weak.
Ava is intrigued by a particular bush with berries on it, it grew from a tomb.
Ava separates from the parade, attracted by the bush. She eats a berry.
She likes them; she starts to eat many.
The king and queen realize that Ava is no longer near them. They find her in a bush, happy, with her face dirty of fruit.
They separate her from the bush because they must return to the parade.
The next day Ava wakes up her parents. They're surprised because she's never so alive.
The king is surprised to see her so happy.
“Ohhh for Vlad's sake! Your face! Look at it! It healed!!!”
Ava shows some berries from the bush she found the day before.
We see the family gardening in the cemetery, there are now lots of bushes. They look healthy, enthusiastic and we can see how their skin healed.
Now the town is alive and happy
An happy drunk citizen enters the scene with a bottle.
Close up of the bottle.
Then zoom out.
Someone else holds this bottle.
The bottle is in ava’s hands
She's at her birthday party. She's having fun.
