The topic of this week is the LIGHT. 
 
In response to this theme, I worked on one of my premises: -A shooting star streaked across the black sky and made a crack in the sky, revealing the twinkling stars behind it.   (The sky is like a bag full of stars)

I created a storyboard about fantasizing about the universe. A little girl eats a snack. The bags of snacks are filled with cookies like stars, and they glow. But the girl accidentally cuts the bag with her paw while eating a snack. The stars of the cookies were exposed. Then the sky tore open, revealing the little girl's claws and the stars.
This week's story is a cosmic fantasy. The little girl could be a higher life form, like a four-dimensional creature. The endless sky above us could be a cloth bag, box, etc. For them.

My story this week was inspired by a Chinese idiom, "Watching the sky from a well," about a frog who lives at the bottom of a well. Every day he could only see the light from the well. So he thought the sky was as big as the mouth of the well. 


A similar episode is "Ice Age" from "Love Death Robot". Lilliputian appeared in the refrigerator. The world in the fridge starts with the ice Age, ends with the end of the world, and then starts all over again. And the speed of the process is breakneck. The man outside the refrigerator witnessed the beginning and the end of civilization in a short time by looking at the world in the refrigerator.

Feedback and Revised Work

For this week's entry, my friends gave me some suggestions. For example, there is a girl in the first image, which contrasts with the hand with claws in the back. Such a jump would interrupt the reader's thinking.
So I modified the storyboard to make the whole more coherent.

Revised Work is in the download file.
