Our animation is a loose story about a blob we'll call Pilgrim. He comes into existence, materializing out of nothing. Pilgrim then gains sight. He beholds the empty world and feels alone. Being alone feels like home at first, but the isolation eventually bothers him. Pilgrim then begins to search for another sentient being. He searches high and low, far and close, but finds that the void extends forever. Destitute, our Pilgrim rests. A light shines down onto Pilgrim, he begins to convulse and loose his shape. Pilgrim splits in two. Now there are two Pilgrims and the void is less empty since they have each other.
The plan is draw everything with charcoal for the majority of the beginning and middle sections. Once Pilgrim goes through his metamorphosis, we'll start adding more colors, juxtaposing the stark black-and-whiteness of loneliness with the bursting colors of companionship.
Here's our storyboard:
