The preliminary story board is complete!!
The story: a guy sells his soul to the devil for one night with the girl of his dreams. He wakes up, doesn't remember anything, looks in the mirror and sees he is now a demon. When he goes to look for the girl, he discovers she is now a demon as well. He decends to the devil's lair wehere he is conscripted to harvesting souls for the devil.
The scenes are as follows:
Scene One: Opening, where a Jazz club where a demon sings his story
Scene Two: Rejection, where he, as a human is rejected by the girl of his dreams
Scene Three: The Contract, where he signs a contract with the devil to have the girl
Scene Four: The Transfomration, where he recalls finding out he is now a demon
Scene Five: The Fall, he decends into the devil's lair
Scene Six: The Celebration, the devil celebrates his fall
Scene Seven: Conscription, where now must help the devil get new souls
Scene Eight: The Close, the demon finishes singing his song
Scene Nine: Credits
As for the music, I just added the guitar solo and accents of strings and sax. I also changed the drums to a Jazz style.
The players are below. The girl, they guy, the guy as a demon and yes the girl as a demon too. And course we have the devil as well. I am carrying the color palette from the humans to the demons for continuity.
My plan is to import these and rig in Animate. I am also using AI to create the animation back drops as shown with the stage.
As for the lyrics I have a good draft - see below. Care to follow along? Comment! Subscribe! Email if you wish, the link is on the site. Mahalo.
Sold My Soul (by Ed Granstedt ©10.29.23
Verse 1
The first time that I saw her
She wouldn’t even look my way
No matter what I said
I couldn’t get the time of day
Refrain
I sold my soul, what could I do
I sold my soul to make my dreams come true
I sold my soul for a passionate night
I sold my soul for my heart’s delight
Verse 2
Well I woke up on the floor
It must have been a wild fling
I can’t say anything more
I don’t recall a god damn thing
Refrain (above)
Bridge
Dazed and confused, what was the time of day?
My head was throbbing and I felt in most peculiar way
I went to a mirror and what did I see?
There was a green eyed demon staring back at me
Verse 3
The devil had put one on me,
I was feeling rather blue
Then my dream appeared
She's a demon too
Refrain (above)
Alternate lyrics on refrain
I sold my soul for a pipe dream
I sold my soul into Satan’s scheme
I sold my soul for a passionate night
I sold my soul to quell my appetite.
