Synopsis of my Film

Here is a brief overview of my films plot. Keep in mind my film will be a digitally drawn animation, this synopsis only gives a little information about my film which is exactly what I intended. Imagination is key.

Plot:

"The Tree of Life"

It all starts with a huge old book opening and telling the story of a simple apple from the original tree of life. As it falls gently onto the ground and decays, the seed within it becomes embedded in the ground. Roots begin to grow from the seed and we see a baby being formed in the centre. Time passes and the tree sprouts; the new formed baby boy is propelled up with it into a world of colour. Different life stages of the boy are played out as he climbs the tree, becoming older as he gets closer and closer to the top, until he finally reaches his destiny... or does he?

Narration:

Throughout the film, a voice of God narration will play, pushing the narrative forward in conjunction with the strong, animated visuals.

Location:

 The film will take place on pages inside the storybook but will show outdoor scenes, with the whole movie being based around the growing tree.

Character:

There will be only one main character shown, no dialogue will be spoken by him as he is just a representative of human life, growing older as the film progresses.
