Beginning boards!

We open with a view of the dark city as an establishing shot. We then cut to an opening shot of aushna walking down the streets of her city, the camera will move to reveal the mural behind her. It explains how the Dark city lost the light. Then we come to the opening gates of the city where Aushna receives a very small and dim light from the elders of the city.

More to come!

Dark City concept painting!

The Dark City: A fallen Utopian style city that has been forced to build on top of itself for many years just to survive. It is jumbled, cramped, and patchwork, but is keeping itself together. Surrounded by water, much of the city’s outer rings and the pillars of its bridge has been lost below the surface of the rising tide

The Dark City: A fallen Utopian style city that has been forced to build on top of itself for many years just to survive. It is jumbled, cramped, and patchwork, but is keeping itself together. Surrounded by water, much of the city’s outer rings and the pillars of its bridge has been lost below the surface of the rising tide.

The Ruins: The Ruins are what is left of the once sprawling city, washed up on the shore and sunk into quicksand-like ground.

The Rocks: The Safest way to get to the sands. A maze of interlocking caves, red in color and striated from years of sediment buildup. Slowly, the breakdown of these caves and rocks created The Sands.

The Sands and The Tower: The sands are an expansive dessert, once full of life. Now, fragments of the other five fallen Goliath and towers litter the sands. Only one tower remains, with it’s light glowing atop it. Around the tower, plant-life and animals are plentiful and prosperous and there are spires spiraling around it’s perimeter. These are the evidence of the Last Goliath slumbering under the sands and protecting his tower.

Aushna: Aushna is an 18 year old resident of the Dark City and has trained for much of her life to be the Last Traveler. Her grandmother, an Elder of the city, prophesied Aushna at birth to journey to the Towers and steal the light back for humanity, a feat many have failed to achieve before her. Aushna is determined to see her people flourish once again and to be once of the first in centuries to lay eyes on the rising sun. Aushna fears failure. With the world resting on her shoulders, she understands her options are to return with the light or join the ranks of those lost amongst the Sands.

The Last Goliath: As the last protector of the Light, The Goliath has slumbered beneath the Sands, awaiting the inevitable approach of humanity’s champion. Their sole purpose is the protect the light from humanities greed and corruption, a force that will dim and eventually destroy it. If humanity attains this power, The Goliath Will he left to rubble, eventually sinking under the dunes to be forgotten.

“First you quickly splash out on paper everything that has flashed by in your head, then you do a more detailed storyboard for the animatic. Usually I don’t show my “splashes”, nobody understands them except myself. But looks like here something can be guessed)”
