Script (finali-ish draft)

Copy of the script. This shouldn't change to much. This was certainly the most enjoyable part for me given that I was able to make changes and tweak things as I saw fit. This is opposed to the story boards and character designs where I am constantly unhappy with what I produce but simply do not have the drawing ability to make what's in my head appear on the paper. The same goes for when I am producing the animation then I am dealing with not only my horrible drawings but also wrestling with software that my analogue brain can not quite comprehend let alone use.

I am worried that this is too long, as usual I struggle to make my point in a succinct manner. I am pinning my hopes on the fact that at least half of this is not animated as such and is actually comic panels; i.e just one still image.

I'm not worried, but interested, to see if the audience gets on the waive-length of the humour I'm going for. It really is pitched at super-hero nerds, so animation is certainly the correct medium for that, but given the ambiguous gender of the two characters (Velvet Fist will sound like a drag queen, Hermaphroditie a 35 year old woman) and the gay themes involved it may be too many things at once and simply be a mess. If so lesson learned. If not, success and stardom beckons. Win/ win.
