Initiating The Action





The first frame here is one of my favorites.

We've stripped a lot of the narrative out of this piece, but there needs to be something driving the action, some reason for the film to have a beginning, middle and end. Here's our conflict.

A bird steals a necklace.

The bird is a clockwork machination, a little brass cuckoo that flies out of the darkness (originating in Castle Greyskull) and steals the girl's necklace. Obviously the girl wants it back.
