Script Overview:
Title: The ABW Complex
Author: Karen Bankhead-Hitts
Characters:
Jonathan: A scientist, ethnically ambiguous
Taylor: A scientist, ethnically ambiguous
Judith Brownlee: The main subject, an attractive black woman in her mid-30s
Plot Summary:
The play opens with scientists Jonathan and Taylor preparing for an experiment involving Judith Brownlee. Judith, unaware of the situation, finds herself in an observation booth, confused and agitated. The scientists reveal that they have brought her to Sector 7, Galaxy 5, to study her as part of the ABW (Angry Black Woman) Protocol. They believe her energy can solve their energy crisis. The play humorously explores stereotypes and the resilience of black women through Judith's reactions and interactions with the scientists.
Setting:
The play primarily takes place in a futuristic lab with high-tech equipment and video screens.
Themes:
Stereotypes and resilience
Cultural misunderstandings
The strength and power of black women
Initial Thoughts:
Character Design: Judith's character is well-defined, showcasing both her strength and vulnerability. The scientists are meant to be ethnically ambiguous, which allows for flexible casting and diverse representation.
Visual Elements: The play's setting is futuristic, with a high-tech lab and video screens. This offers great potential for creative and dynamic visual storytelling in an animated format.
Humor and Satire: The script uses humor to address serious issues, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking. This balance will be crucial to maintain in the animated adaptation.
Next Steps:
Storyboarding: Once you provide the storyboard and photos/looks for the main characters, we can begin to visualize the scenes and sequences in detail.
Character Design Refinement: Further develop the visual design of Judith and the scientists to match the descriptions and ensure they fit the "ethnically ambiguous" criteria.
Flashback Sequences: Descriptions of the flashback sequences will help in understanding the transitions and additional settings required.
Questions for Consideration:
Are there any specific visual styles or references you have in mind for the animation?
Do you have preferences for the voice actors, especially for Judith, to capture her character's essence?
Are there any additional scenes or elements you want to emphasize or expand upon in the animated version?
Feel free to share the storyboard and any other materials you have, and I can provide a more detailed time frame and budget estimate for the project. Looking forward to collaborating further!
