Week 3 (14th October 2014)
It is the 14th October 2014 and welcome to week 3, what have you been up to this week Ruben I hear you ask? Well let me tell you.
Since starting back I’ve found myself alternating weeks on the 2 projects whilst they’re both in their early stages so not to favor one over the other.
This week was primarily spent on “eco Jelly” (which desperately needs a new name). When I pitched “eco jelly” it has the least devolvement of any of the 3 but it was the one chosen by my fellow classmates to go forward with, this week was spent working out what “Eco Jelly” would be all about.
Below you can see 5 Episode Synopsis.
“Eco Jelly” Episode synopsis.
Episode 1- Pilot Danger is coming
Here we are briefly introduced to the characters, primary revolving The Piranha king we learn what I bitter character he is. He plans to attack the clear water kingdom and in the process builds Bioshell.
Episode 2- Squishy trouble
The piranha king is up to his usual tricks trying to destroy the Clear water kingdom, spotted by the little troublemaker Squishy the little genderless wonder comes up with a completely ridiculous plan to stop him.
Episode 3- Missing kitty
The piranha king steals Queen Iris cat fish. Another one of the Piranha King diabolical plans, Piranha king will only return the catfish to queen iris if she gives up the clear water kingdom to him. Crabby the queens head guard try to think up a plan but the impatient squishy cant wait that long and goes the the shadow waters alone.
Episode 4- Fabrizio the fixer
The Piranha king decided that he needs new members to his team, he puts out and add to recruit. This is where we meet the character Fabrizio the fixer (introduced as Brian) and Skelly fish (pre experiment).
Episode 5- The birth of Skelly fish
Previously turned down for not being evil enough Skelly fish returns begging The Piranha king the reconsider him for his team, he agrees but only if he can modify him to make him more suitable for the job. Once completed The Piranha king team is ready to attack, now the fun can begin
I found doing this a lot more helpful that I originally though it would be, as silly as that maybe. In my head I can now actually see this becoming a thing and am now confident in the project ahead.
From writing the synopses a new character was also born,
Meet cat fish, queen iris pet cat…. Fish.
Cat is a big fat ball of fluff, a massive softy as long as you don’t brush his fur the wrong way. Cat enjoys the royal life style and is always seen half sleep looking unimpressed with everything around him. Needless to say he means the world to Queen Iris and is the only love our fishy queen needs.
