short movie
I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOVIE... A SHORT MOVIE. AND THEREFORE I NEED A STORY.
AND I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU COULD HELP ME.
[laughs] uhm... uh...
About an egg.
who is different than all the others.
Because he's purple with...
or yellow with
purple dots.
Yellow with white dots...
no with purple dots!
Then he gets bullied and gets paper wads thrown at him.
And paper jets.
And all sorts of stuff.
He got thrown out of the carton by the other eggs.
Then he ends up in a forest with dangerous animals.
He walks away because he knows he has been kicked out.
And that if he goes back he'll get kicked out again.
Then it starts raining really hard.
Then he is tired and goes to sleep under a leaf.
The egg wakes up and first he's really sad and he thinks...
It's a shame I still don't have a friend but then again...
It's a new day. New chances. It's nice and warm.
Then it's really sunny.
He uhm... is very... he hops and is very cheerful.
AND YOU THINK WE SHOULD ADD SOME MUSIC HERE?
Yes... something like tatatatatatata
tatatatata tatatatata
And then uhm... he comes across a blackbird.
The blackbird is wearing a hat.
with glasses.
with those ear flaps on the side.
WHY? IS HE COLD?
No he's sort of a pilot.
Uhm... he's black. With a yellow nose.
Basically what a blackbird looks like.
The egg thinks a friend! A friend!
The blackbird sees the egg and thinks mmmm... a nice bite.
And then the blackbird wants to eat him. And then he runs away.
And then he comes across a fox. A real macho man.
And he's also very strong. Muscular.
And he also walks straight.
The fox's name is Henk.
Henk has a ripped shirt on.
Because he runs in the wild.
And sometimes gets stuck on things.
Or hooked.
And then ehm... he asks the fox will you be my friend?
And then he almost gets eaten and has to crawl in a tree.
Then he thinks never mind that egg.
And then he comes across an ant and he asks will you be my friend?
And the ant says
Yes. Yes.
And then... yeah... they become very close friends.
And they also go to an anthill. And he gets a very warm welcome.
And then he asks all the ants will you eat me because I want to feel what it's like to be eaten.
That he's more special than other eggs because they don't get eaten.
THEN WHY DIDN'T HE WANT TO BE EATEN BY THE BLACKBIRD?
Because he wants to feel what it's like to have real friends first.
All the ants who are his friends... then say ok.
THEN HOW DOES IT END?
That's the end. That he gets eaten.
AND IS IT A HAPPY END OR IS IT...
Yes for him it is. Because he wants to get eaten.
FOR WHOM IS IT NOT HAPPY THEN?
Well for nobody actually... yeah not really...
The ants have a full belly... the egg is happy... and that's the end.
DOES THE EGG LOOK LIKE YOU?
On one hand yes... a lot.
He gets bullied and I've been bullied too.
And I also was cut from the group.
And I wanted to have a friend too.
And now I have one. She is in high school.
Ad yeah we are really good friends. And we do everything for each other.
So that's why the egg gets eaten. Because they really do everything for each other. Even eating.
And yeah... that's it really... sort of.
