Major Project: Legends of Grimm Script Final and Voice Actor

After a collaboration with Phil, we have finalized my script for my animation. I have also found my voice actor to play the voice of the Beast. Andrew Piper from Damn Good Voices.
  
LEGENDS OF GRIMM: FINAL


INT. BLACK SCREEN
Thunder and rain can be heard


INT. MOON LIT FOREST
Lighting/thunder opens up the scene
Camera pans down to distance shot of Silver and Bear in a clearing.


BEAST:
Look at you. How plucky. How sweet. I’m touched. You’ve come all this way to destroy little old me?


Falling trees and ground noises are heard around the woods. Black figure (Beast) walks past the camera.


FADE TO BLACK
CUT TO HEROES
Camera switches to close up shot of Silver, looking anxious, yet aware. The camera focus switches to the Bear Prince.


BEAST:
I’ve been expecting you, of course. After all, my power is much too extraordinary to ignore.  This pitiful kingdom you seek to protect is no place for a being of my magnificence. It offends me. Now watch me raze it to the ground.


Louder foot steps and tree breaking can be heard.

CUT TO FOREST
Distance shot of both Silver and Bear; through the forest. Black figure walks past camera again, scaring birds.


CUT TO BLACK
CUT TO HEROES
Silver and Bear hear the birds. The Bear unsheathes his axe and Silver's hands activate/glow.

BEAST: CONTINUED
That’s right, prepare for combat, make a stand.  Maybe they’ll sing songs in honour of your bravery? Maybe the poets will lionize your folly? Or maybe no one will know what happened here because your bodies will be ash…

 (growling groans)


Camera shot of Silver turning her head as she looks at the Bear Prince. The Bear Prince becomes in focus (closer to the camera) sniffs the air (twice) and growls.

 BEAST:
Magic is a corruption – a disease - and you and your kind are the cankers in the apple. I will purge this realm of filth.


LIGHTNING STRIKE/ THUNDER
Echo of the Beast's laughter/roar/noises? fill the woods as a camera rises over Silver and The Bear Prince.

BEAST:
Can you feel it yet? The fire? (growl)


CUT TO BLACK
FADE TO ORANGE LIT FOREST
CUT TO BLACK

BEAST:
READY TO BURN?!

CUT TO FOREST SCENE
All in slow motion: The Beast bursts through woods and Silver and the Bear are about to engage.


CUT TO BLACK
TITLE SCREEN

BEAST:
Magic is dead. Long live... the Beast!


CUT TO BLACK
Beast's loud, rumbling foot steps are heard with a roar.

END.
