Day 7352




(Something like Eden of the East I guess)



Set on a desk, with a piece of paper/book in front of you that animates and comes to life in the 360 world
Paper people by Harry Baker




I like people.
words appear as paper goes up, person pops up inside the hole. 
Big book pages open,
I’d like some paper people.
Paper people onto the page - word people made out of paper http://www.dafont.com/humancapital.font?text=people (100%free)
They’d be purple paper people. Maybe pop-up purple paper people.
Paper people onto the page, scribble purple, then 3D pop up - fast forwarded real time slow camera unwind (showing the real life work behind it)
Proper pop-up purple paper people.
“How do you prop up pop-up purple paper people?”
Paper people Speech bubble “How do you prop up pop-up purple paper people?”
I hear you cry. Well I …
I’d probably prop up proper pop-up purple paper people
With a proper pop-up purple people paperclip,
Enter purple paper clip centre screen.....
But I’d pre-prepare appropriate adhesives as alternatives,
A cheeky pack of Blu Tack just in case the paper slipped.
- have someone who was walking slip and fall off screen
Because I could build a pop-up metropolis.
GoT style buildings start to grow out of the paper behind the paper people- see it grow from sitting down person
But I wouldn’t wanna deal with all the paper people politics.
Parliament house - People in different coloured ties all offering a hand to help the person up
Paper politicians with their paper-thin policies,
Change camera angle - Camera view swap to show the thinness of the paper
Broken promises without appropriate apologies.
Flatter it down~ - character holds hand and they disappear turn from being cut out stand up to a hole in the paper and the person falls in o.o


There’d be a little paper me. And a little paper you.
Human pop up, pull up another human - two people falling in blackness
And we could watch paper TV and it would all be pay-per-view.
- land on sofa and have a TV - clicks the button

We’d see the poppy paper rappers rap about their paper package
Sweet wrapper, rapping about the sweets they contained 
Or watch paper people carriers get stuck in paper traffic on the A4. Paper.
Zoom out show A4, spin it as it spins it transitions into next scene
There’d be a paper princess Kate but we’d all stare at paper Pippa,
And then we’d all live in fear of killer Jack the Paper-Ripper,
Paper gets ripped
Because the paper propaganda propagates the people’s prejudices,
Papers printing pictures of the photogenic terrorists.
- newspapers being piled up one after the other
A little paper me. And a little paper you.
- they take a newspaper and start walking
And in a pop-up population people’s problems pop up too.
people walking in time with words whilst it rained  starts raining so they put the newspaper over their heads
There’d be a pompous paper parliament who remained out of touch,
Parliament city starts floating above the rest of the metropolis 
And who ignored the people’s protests about all the paper cuts,
Cut seperates parliament and people, different parts of the city get sliced in half and crumple away (Hospitals, houses, Education, 
Then the peaceful paper protests would get blown to paper pieces,
Explode and crush 
By the confetti cannons manned by pre-emptive police.
The explosions fall everywhere, bright bursts of colour streaked with shreds of purple
And yes there’d still be paper money, so there’d still be paper greed,
Confetti turns into money falling slow motion 
And the paper piggy bankers pocketing more than they need,
Pig bankers in suits eating from troff 
Purchasing the potpourri to pepper their paper properties,
Others live in poverty and ain’t acknowledged properly.
The two sides grow with the "rich" growing more up, the cut deepening and the poor growing wider
A proper poor economy where so many are proper poor,
Humans crushed in the dark shadow created by others 
But while their needs are ignored the money goes to big wars.
Page turns 
Origami armies unfold plans for paper planes
From paper paper planes start to rise folding themselves and tearing away from the book 
And we remain imprisoned in our own paper chains,
Person in a paper chain of other huamns reaching out, making a bend in a straight line 
But the greater shame is that it always seems to stay the same,
Line rebounds and person is cut back into the straight line paper chain
What changes is who’s in power choosing how to lay the blame,
The paper planes crash into a statue of  a person that rotates into a dfferent person 
They’re naming names, forgetting these are names of people,
slowly getting closer and closer to their face exploding a bit each time
Because in the end it all comes down to people.
Camera moves down to the paper chain 

I like people.
One person steps away from the chain and as they do everything around them starts to crumple and break
‘Cause even when the situation’s dire,
Person falling into darkness with the world crumpling up around them
It is only ever people who are able to inspire,
Person draws a door onto the page and climbs in through starts to at least
And on paper, it’s hard to see how we all cope.
Everything crumples and Everything turns to darkness
But in the bottom of Pandora’s box there’s still hope,
Person jumps into the book binding and it's all dark their eyes the only thing glowing
And I still hope ’cause I believe in people.
 Veins from hand light up face .Hands come out and support the person
People like my grandparents.
Hands come out and support the person on the shoulders one on either side 
Who every single day since I was born, have taken time out of their morning to pray for me.
That’s 7892 days straight of someone checking I’m okay, and that’s amazing.
Show him growing up (evolution stage) as pages turn, ending on page 7892
People like my aunt who puts on plays with prisoners.
Hands come out and support the person Back
People who are capable of genuine forgiveness.
Hands come out and support the person butt
People like the persecuted Palestinians
Hands come out and support the person. leggs
People who go out of their way to make your life better, and expect nothing in return.
Hands come out and support the person somewhere 
You see, people have potential to be powerful.
Breaks free back into the main book and popping up 
Just because the people in power tend to pretend to be victims
People in ties in box's 'miming' 
We don’t need to succumb to that system.
Erase the colours on the tie 
And a paper population is no different.
Person walks away 
There’s a little paper me. And a little paper you.
Person walks then close up as they hold someones hand 
And in a pop-up population people’s problems pop up too,
Pages start to rise up over them and you just see their fingers hands held up together entwined get covered
But even if the whole world fell apart then we’d still make it through.
Pages of the book fall away taken off layer by layer
Because we’re people.
Two people left floating to the ground. 

Plan is to storyboard out the key frames from each sentence first then work on the in betweens after.
