FSTS - Rough storyboard

To show my work process, here's my rough a storyboard. Each scene took me about 20 minutes to do. I do this to help me map out what my pages are going to look like before i go onto Photoshop. This is purely for my own benefits as its not the sort of thing i'd pitch to a 'client'.

FSTS - New Story


Step Outline

Scene 1 –

The circus just came to a town and everyone is preparing for the upcoming show this weekend.

Jimmy (the circus cleaner) is cleaning is cleaning the outside of the mermaid tank. Mary (the mermaid) catches him looking at her and jimmy begins to blush.

Frank (strong man) come over, picks jimmy up and throws him into the tank and says “don’t forget about the inside”. As jimmy struggles to swim out of the tank, Mary helps him. (people laughing in the background).

Scene 2

Jimmy is cleaning the toilet. Frank shuts him in, picks up the cubical and shakes it. Frank finally puts down the toilet and jimmy comes out soaked. Everybody laughs (in the background).

Scene 3

The cleaner is mopping to floor. Frank comes in to the scene, pushes jimmy to the ground and uses him as l mop. Watching all of this happening from her tank, Mary the mermaid shouts at frank telling him to stop are she feels sorry from poor little Jimmy.

Scene 4

The next d morning Jimmy walks into the circus with some flowers that he’s planning to give to Mary. Before he gets to Mary, Frank comes over, grabs the flowers and stamps on them.

The shock and sadness in Jimmy’s face turns into anger. This is when he decides to get revenge.

Scene 5

Jimmy starts to plan out his revenge. This scene will be a montage of him cutting planks of wood, nailing and screwing things etc.

Scene 6

The next morning, frank wakes up and steps out of his caravan. He sees a piece of paper near his feet. He picks it up and sees at it’s a map (this map was created by Jimmy to lure him to his doom).

I'm not quite sure what kind of horrible things Jimmy is going to do to frank just yet.
Another idea I've got is to have the strong man end up getting the girl (Mary), and this is what would drive Jimmy to punish them both. Below are my designs for frank, I have coloured my favourite options.

@phil FSTS - new ideas

1.       A window cleaner gets hypnotized, after going to the circus, to rob the penthouse he works at.
        
 2.     The new window cleaner starts work at the fairground because the cleaner has gone missing. the window cleaner finds a map hidden in the locker and he has to find out what happened to the old cleaner.


3.       A window cleaner working in the fairground gets bullied at work every day.  One day he’s had enough and decided to get his revenge in the most horrible way possible.
