VOICE
Shot - Realistic animations of life on earth during Jurassic Era. The Creator as an audience to life on the 3.7 to 4.1 billion year old earth. The animations of dinosaur life are presented with a variety of plant and dinosaur #1 (Pain | Joy) through #4 (Life | Death) Hanscyrus class picture graphs. Hanscyrus pictures are the intimate conduit links the Creator employs within all of earth’s initial stages of biological creation.

What’d’ya think?
CUT TO:
INT. SCENE - HANSCYRUSWORTH PRODUCTION VIDEO EDITING ROOM
SAGE
It’s good.
The portrayal of the animals
and landscape is totally realistic.
I like it.
MILEY
I don’t think we should use it as a first scene.
The audience attention on the Creator right away isn’t cool.
Maybe we should place this one inside a later third or fourth episode.
LIAM
I know.
The concept of a Thing monitoring inside everyone’s head
is heavy-duty. We should probably at least storyboard a few more episodes …
to build up to this idea gradually, ya know?
SAGE
There aren’t any humans portrayed inside this episode.
It’s not empahasized too strongly.
When is it the right time to have
the audience ponder over the question,
What is It doing?
(a beat)
Creating the dinosaurs before us humans
was a learning exercise for It.
It wanted to know some things
before designing and creating us humans.
Creating the dinosaurs first
and monitoring them
for hundreds of millions of years,
then destroying them, …
(a beat)
MILEY
… and it learned some things, setting the stage for our existence.
LIAM
We have the question topics,
‘Things The Creator Learns,'
'Learned,'
'May Be Learning’
up on the project board.
And you know there aren’t any scripts written for it yet.
(chuckle)
Just some ideas to keep in the back of the mind.
SAGE
Alright. Let’s brainstorm this one through.
Stay off the other ones
till everyone’s satisfied more or less with this.
I suppose we can break this up further.
MILEY
Who just said, lobster tails?
LIAM
You did! Let’s go.
SAGE
I’ll drive.
