15-second animated storyboard sheet for a heartwarming family short film titled "The Brave Rooster Day." A complete professional animation storyboard presentation page featuring 15 sequential cinematic panels arranged in a clean 3×5 grid layout (3 columns, 5 rows), 16:9 aspect ratio. STYLE: Disney Pixar 3D animation aesthetic — high-end cinematic CG rendering in the tradition of Pixar and Disney Animation Studios. Soft subsurface-scattering skin, expressive oversized eyes, appealing rounded character proportions, physically-based rendering, global illumination, warm golden-hour countryside lighting, gentle volumetric light through dust and feathers, painterly stylized environments with rich color, shallow cinematic depth of field, smooth polished surfaces with realistic fabric and material detail. Wholesome, charming, family-friendly tone with comedic timing and emotional warmth. CHARACTERS: SLAVA — a young boy, around 6–7 years old, with short tousled blonde hair, large warm hazel eyes, soft rounded cheeks, light freckles, a friendly innocent expression. He wears a bright orange short-sleeve t-shirt with a cute cartoon cow holding a milk bottle printed on the chest, rolled-up blue denim shorts, and colorful rainbow-strap sandals. Small, slim, energetic build with a gentle childlike charm. GRANDPA (DEDUSHKA) — an older man in his late 60s, sturdy and warm, with thick wavy grey hair, a bushy grey mustache, kind weathered face with gentle wrinkles and warm eyes. He wears a red-and-green plaid flannel shirt with sleeves rolled up, brown suspenders, worn muddy beige work trousers tucked into scuffed grey-brown rubber farm boots. Calm, reassuring, dependable presence. Keep both characters perfectly consistent across all panels — identical faces, hair, clothing, colors, and proportions. VISUAL TONE: warm rustic countryside palette — golden sunlight, dusty earthy browns of the wooden shed, soft greens of the yard grass, the bright orange pop of Slava's shirt, the red plaid of Grandpa's flannel. Cozy and bright in calm moments, slightly tense and dynamic during the rooster chase, returning to soft warm safety at the end. Cinematic atmosphere with floating dust motes, scattered feathers, and gentle rim lighting. STORYBOARD LAYOUT: presented on a clean light beige professional storyboard production sheet. Each of the 15 panels framed in a neat rounded-corner rectangle with thin clean borders separating them. Under each frame: a small panel number, a timecode label, and a short shot/scene note in clean minimal typography. Studio-quality animation production presentation, organized like a real Pixar pre-production shot sheet. SCENE BREAKDOWN: Panel 1: Wide establishing shot. Sunny rustic farmyard beside an old wooden shed, chickens pecking on the ground, Slava in his orange cow t-shirt standing happily in the yard, warm morning light. (Timecode 00:00–00:01) Panel 2: Medium shot. Slava reaching into a small bowl and scattering golden grain onto the ground, smiling, hens gathering around his feet. (00:01–00:02) Panel 3: Close-up. Slava's cheerful freckled face looking down at the chickens with delight, soft golden light on his cheeks. (00:02–00:03) Panel 4: Low angle shot. A large angry rooster with vivid red comb and ruffled feathers struts into frame, glaring, looking threatening and comedic. (00:03–00:04) Panel 5: Dynamic medium shot. The rooster suddenly lunges and pecks at Slava's bare legs near his sandals, feathers flying, the boy flinching. (00:04–00:05) Panel 6: Close-up. Slava's face twisting into shocked fear, eyes wide, mouth open in a startled cry. Action: Slava yelps in fright. (00:05–00:06) Panel 7: Dynamic wide shot. Slava spins around and bolts away, arms flailing, the rooster chasing behind him across the yard, dust kicking up. (00:06–00:07) Panel 8: Medium tracking shot. Slava running fast toward the house, looking back over his shoulder in panic, the angry rooster in pursuit. (00:07–00:08) Panel 9: Medium shot. Slava bursts through the doorway into the home, breathless and frightened. (00:08–00:09) Panel 10: Over-the-shoulder shot. Slava clinging to Grandpa, pointing back outside, his face upset. Action: Slava cries, "Дедушка, петух!" (00:09–00:10) Panel 11: Medium shot. Grandpa in his plaid flannel and suspenders kneels reassuringly, a calm warm smile, placing a comforting hand on Slava's shoulder. (00:10–00:11) Panel 12: Dynamic wide shot. Grandpa striding confidently into the yard, leaning down and skillfully catching the surprised rooster mid-step with both hands. (00:11–00:12) Panel 13: Medium shot. Grandpa gently placing the captured rooster into a wooden wire cage and latching the door, the rooster now safely contained. (00:12–00:13) Panel 14: Close-up. Slava's face softening into relief and a returning smile, tension melting away, warm light on his features. (00:13–00:14) Panel 15: Wide final shot. Slava walking happily and calmly through the peaceful sunny yard again, hens around him, the caged rooster in the background, Grandpa watching warmly. A cozy resolved ending. (00:14–00:15) ART DIRECTION: highly expressive Pixar-quality facial animation, strong readable emotions (joy, fear, panic, relief, comfort), varied dynamic camera angles between panels, detailed fabric textures on the plaid flannel and cotton t-shirt, realistic feather and grain detail, dusty volumetric countryside atmosphere, appealing silhouettes, cinematic composition and staging, comedic and heartwarming timing.
