Final treatment

Final treatment



Logline: 

Over-confident and irresponsible, Eva fails to to see the dangers within each situation, this maybe the last chance she has to learn.


Eva fails to the dangers of her world, much to the dismay of her master this maybe the final chance she has to learn.


Eva fails to take anything seriously, this maybe her final chance to learn before she 

Eva never takes her training seriously, this lesson will swiftly prove her philosophy wrong.

 Final logline

 Laziness breeds idleness, and in this world idleness breeds death, all demon slayers are taught this however one still has failed to abide by this law.


Conflict: Character vs character


Three act Structure


Act 1 - Training is about to start and Eva is barely prepared, much to the dismay of her master. Eva is over confident and eager to prove to her master that she is ready to go out into the field and all this training is just a waste of time.

Act 2 - Eva and her master begin to duel, while Eva's skill in combat is efficient her masters is far superior.

Act 3 - Eva is disarmed by her master and is berated for her ego. Eva is then forced to take things more seriously if she is ever going to be doing fieldwork in the future.


Synopsis


Eva, a young demon hunter in training believes that she is ready for field work, and her master, Airini's continuous emphasis on training is only delaying her from reaching her potential. She decides that today she is going to make a stand against her master and prove that she is far more capable than her master believes she is.

However she doesn't receive the affirmation she desires when her master makes quick work of her leaving her ego shattered and berated. While her skill in combat is admirable it is her poor attitude that frustrates Airini, and if Evas attitude fails to change only certain death awaits.



Story

Eva a young demon hunter in training waits for her masters arrival, rather than preparing her gear for training she spends the time taking a nap, she awakens to bonk of a heavy item on her head and sees Airini glaring angrily above her. Airini demands Eva gets into a fighting stance, cockily Eva states that she doesn't need more training and this lesson will prove it. 

Eva fights with brute strength aggressively relying strictly on her weapon rather than herself,  spouting snarky remarks. All Airini does is dodge and deflect using Evas strength against. Eva is quickly defeated by her master who berates her for not taking things seriously, commending Eva for her kill in battle 

Airini Design





Eva Design

Because Eva's original design was so complex and detailed I needed to translate it to a final design. Below is the final result

Backgrounds - The City

Image
  One of the environments that's featured within the animation is the city (Can't really think of a name for it so I'll just call it the city for the time being) this is the main capital and headquarters for the academy which have smaller locations across the country. I wanted to give the city a design that showcased the modern with fantasy elements with a heavy use of stone and brick within there architecture with 21st century lamps. I also wanted to design the backstreets of this city. While many species live within the city those who don't fit within the mold are often segregated to the backstreets of the city which the academy  offer little to no protection to those who aren't human, or human like (for example elves and dwarfs).  Many rogue demons and monsters use these backstreets as a hunting ground as many don't seem to care what happens to those living within the backstreets. Within the story Eva wanders into the backstreets without realizing as she neve...

Finalizing character designs

Image
Character design  I started to finalize the main character Alice's design, going over some of the earlier sketches and adding some color to get a feel on what kind of colors I want her to wear. I've started trialing colors and really like the blue and green, its very dull and meek which would fit her character perfectly. I've also trialed some hair colors and skin tones because I want her to appear frail I think I might giver her a very pale skin tone to help accentuate that. I've started working on the rough design and really like the look of it the baggy attire and kept back hair gives her the appearances of a shy goody toe shoes, in the sense that she always firmly follows the rules not one hair out of place. As the design progressed not much changed from the original except for her face which I altered taking away any of the sharpness giving it a more bubbly look and shrinking the height of her head  slightly and making sure her hair was kept tightly beneath her hea...

Storyboard

Image
 After looking at my storyboard I've come to realize its very very long with around 100 thumbnails. When I bring this over to my book I will need to look at cutting down some of the thumbnails as there won't be enough space to fit them all within the book.  What I have decided to storyboard is one of the first cutscenes of the game. Eva tries escaping the academy for the night however is quickly caught, with her last resort being to throw herself out the window to get away from the guards chasing her, after mocking the guards from her safe spot she quickly runs towards the city eventually making her way towards the slums, the known home of the demon that's been terrorizing the city. Wandering the alleyways she begins to detect a presence and ends up coming to a dead end with the creature close behind her before it can grab a hold of her she cuts of its hand with her sword she quickly cuts of the creatures right arm, thinking she's got the creature cornered she smugly le...
