a black-marker stick figure in a flipbook world
Crayon drawing animation brings a child's waxy crayon picture to life.
10A child's wax-crayon drawing come to life: thick, waxy, uneven crayon strokes in bright primary colours on white paper, the paper texture showing through gaps in the colour, a scribbled sky, a big yellow sun with stick rays in the corner, wobbly proportions and simple naive shapes, moving in jerky hand-drawn frames. On a rooftop garden above a city in late-afternoon sun, a crayon girl with orange scribbled pigtails and a green dress waters potted tomato plants with a purple crayon watering can. Medium-wide shot at her eye level, three-quarter view, the camera holding still. 0–2s: she tips the watering can over a potted plant and a few blue crayon drops fall onto the leaves. 2–4s: a white crayon paper airplane outlined in black glides in from screen left and lands on the rim of the pot beside her. 4–6s: she sets the can down, picks up the paper airplane and turns it over in her hands. 6–8s: she looks up and out over the city rooftops and smiles as the wind ruffles the leaves and her hair. Throughout: everything stays a child's waxy crayon drawing with paper showing through, moving in jerky hand-drawn frames, one continuous take.

Give the drawing a child's signature details: a big sun with stick rays in the corner, bright primaries, wobbly proportions. They do more than the word "crayon".
