CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

EDIT, 6/6: This is a really old script, and I don't use this format anymore. It's done all wrong for an animation; but, at the time I hadn't studied animation script formats. So, please excuse the style - I know it's difficult to read.

Okay, I've gone off the deep end. I enjoy watching cartoons, as well as anime, and have decided I wanted to make an offbeat crime-fighting hero. I love Dav Pilkey and the Powerpuff Girls - don't laugh - and so I thought I would try something away from what I usually write. This is what started out as a joke while I was looking at a pink squid toy from a happy meal. I even have little stick figure drawings for story boards. What do you think of my cartoon - Super Squiddy?



Super Squiddy (a.k.a. Sarah Squidheart)
Comic/animation

[u]“The Shopping Cart,â€

lol. Very nice. Is this like those things like the plays, are you going to have a cartoon with it?

This is the first of a few scenes. It actually develops the character of Sarah Squidheart and a vagabond trio she runs into, who become her best friends in the later scenes, helping her fight crime (or what she thinks is crime). Bob the agent plays a bigger part in the picture and SUASS (watch how you read that ).But, this really is nothing serious I'm working on. I was goofing off with the idea and started writing panel and script format for a cartoon. I had asked a friend of mine's husband (he wrote Megatokyo) about the format and when I went home I threw this together as a joke for my kids. I don't think it's a play, however.

I didn't know you wrote cartoons too! You are a woman of many talents.

And Powerpuff Girls rule!

Yeah, the powerpuffers! I write everything. What do you want me to write?

lol I like.

Thanks, Sangoku.^-^

I like Boo Boo Squiddy.

Boo Boo's super easy to draw, also. Think of a Peanut's ghost costume, only a lot smaller and pink - with ooze trailing behind like a snail.

Okay here's some more of Super Squiddy. I hope you guys don't mind. I'm having fun. Tell me where I can improve.

Scene 2

[U]“The Perfect Job,â€

very funny, I imagined Tofu looking like an actual tofu.

Actually, Tofu is a 13 or 14-year-old, short and stocky Asian boy, so yeah... I guess he looks like a bar of tofu.

Hehhe. I like this! It's cute and funny, and very cartoony. It's very anime-ish, too, much like anime-inspired American kid's cartoons... like Dexter's Laboratory or Powerpuff Girls.

I'm a PPG fan, too.

Thanks Shadsie. Do you think I should post more or let it die?

More... More!!! Don't let it die! I like it and I bet everyhere does too. Oh and after I finish an essay for tomorrow Ill be writing more frequently on "Meledriel". Already have the continuation of Part 1 in my mind and sorting it around.

Thanks, here's more. I hope this section develops the budding friendship between Greta, Frog and Tofu with Sarah Squidheart. There's some action. KA POW!

Scene 3

[U]“Surprises on the Job,â€

MORE MORE!!!!!!!!!
I WANT MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in high squeeky voice-plz

^_^;;;;

^___^ LOL, are you serious? This is so old. How'd you dig this thing up?

Anyways, glad you liked it. I actually have more of this, but I haven't worked on it for like half a year. I'm not sure I should make the rest of the writing section suffer through the further adventures of Super Squiddy. *hehe*

This is the last scene for the animation. I based it on half hour shows. It still needs a Premise, which is what you send off for someone to even look over an animation script. I wrote the script with no realistic breaks, since I had never done an animation script before. So, this is what I dug up in my old files.

Anways, for those who asked this is how the first half-hour cartoon would end. ^__^ Hope you like it.


Closing Scene 4


[u][size=100][font=Times New Roman]“You Meet the Nicest People on the Job,â€

Sorry, ran out of room. ^^;; This really is the end. ^___^



OUTSIDE THE MALL A LONE AGENT STANDS LOOKING OVER THE PARKING LOT.



P18 – Agent Bob of the SUASS has his hands across his torso, his sunglasses are reflecting the sunlight. The wind is blowing. He has a non-expressive look.



P19 – Agent Bob turns and walks away. In my homage to John Woo there are a large group of pigeons which shoot into the sky behind Agent Bob.



P20 – Agent Bob, from a behind view, has a pigeon poopy on the back of his hair. This is done for comedic affect.



P21 – Agent Bob, raising his hand from under the breast of his overcoat, pulls out a small caliber pistol, shooting a pigeon out of the sky.



P22 – In a cutaway panel, the pigeon is limping back to the flock.



P23 – The end scene is of Agent Bob grinning, as he walks away into the sunset.



AGENT BOB: You won’t hide for long –-- mutant squid girl.
