Posted by on Nov 10, 2015 in Uncategorized | No Comments

After Feedback from Professor Zbigniew on my Thumbnails drawings , and limitations based on my drawing skills I decided to change to a much simpler storyline and setting.

 

 

StoryLine: In the old west, the year is 1890. Sherif Jones is investigating the robbery of a stage coach, that had happened a day earlier. while passing through town she comes across a suspicious character named Zac. They get into an altercation, till Maggie interrupts  pressing them with the stolen money, leaving them both confuse about the true identity of the the robber.

Characters:

Jones – Sherif

Zac – Suspect

Maggie: Zac’s wife / Possible actual coach robber.

Script:

EXT. MINING TOWN CIRCA 1890 – DAY

A tall and intimidating figure steps into a deserted dusty street. This is Sheif Jones.

He stares at a man leaning against a fence rail. This is Zac, a suspicious character with an eye patch.

JONES: I’m lookin’ for the man who robbed the stagecoach yesterday.

ZAC:  Don’t know nothin’ about it, Sheriff. Barber holds up a torn handkerchief.

JONES: This your handkerchief, son? You left it at the scene of the crime.

Zax straightens and walks out in front of the sheriff.

ZAC: You accusing me of burglary? Why, cause I’m dressed all in black and I got an eye patch? That’s discrimination.

Jones stares at Zac stupefied. The two men face off, their hands twitching beside the handles of their six shooters tucked in their holsters.

WOMAN: Hold it right there, boys!

The two men turn their heads to see, Maggie standing on a porch of a nearby building.

Zac: I can handle this, Maggie.

MAGGIE: You’re lookin’ for this ain’t ya, Sheriff?

Maggie tosses a bag into the street. It lands and tears, spilling silver coins into the dust. Sheriff Jones stares at the money.

JONES: How’d you come by this?

MAGGIE: I Guess I just found it. Maggie winks at Zac who looks at her dumfounded. She turns to go.

ANGLE ON Maggie’s wrist. She’s wearing the other half of the torn handkerchief. She turns and walks away leaving the two men staring mutely after her and one another.
