Hi Gus,

This is the rough script I tried to follow:


This is George, 

He's a regular guy but things aren't going particularly well for him.

Unlucky in love.

Unlucky in general

And now, to top it all, it's raining.

Things just seem to get worse, don't they George?


Luckily for George, and others like him, there's a solution:

'Selflesness, the way out of doom'

So, we present to you, a UTO power station, the 'Anti-Doom-dome'.


Also attached are the words on the storyboard, for rough timing.

Ok, I will try to give it a try and send the audio file to Dom, for a timing reference and see how it goes.
I'll let you know if I need help on something else.
Thanks a lot!

Oops, it must be the old one, it was the only one I could find, didn't realise how different it was. Could you please send me the recent one and I'll correct it straight away.

Sorry to confuse things.
Olly.

Gus

well, according to visual clues, it should be like this:

narrator: "george is a ordinary man,this is not necessarily the perfect day for him...."

1, narrator address "economic downturn" (george could get pay cut or fired.)
2. on the way home (bus), receive sms from girlfriend or date. 
3. he pulling out cigarett, but only had one drag...unlucky he faces a non-smoing sign....
4: raining, umbrella: narrator: " this has just made a little bit worse for him",
/......
 narrator: " goerge felt doomed, and  thought of calling for help...someone?...there must be many of people like me,,,.perhaps he thought, we could help each other out...for once,

....
the following bit is the bit we need to edit the story, because it doesnt work  like way it is yet. the logic of the story line doesn work yet.

if who can contribute..

Hi Lulu,

We're using the very same text Oliver read during the performance, as it is in the storyboard he sent, just to have an idea of the timing so Dominique can animate based on that. Ed is gonna record the voice over with his 1940's cheesy accent for the narration as Olly won't be able to make it until Tuesday. We can see how that narration works with the animation and can make the changes we consider necessary once we have a demo of it. 

Does this sound alright?

Hey Olly,
 
Is this the final script? Gus wanted me to give it a go. Don't worry, I've been watching some pretty dated films ,
practicing my forties drawl...
 
If it is, I'll record something and send it to Dom to slip into the animation.

Ed
