Poem 2
Part 1
Sand,  Sea and Sun
How quick or how slow does it fall,
Who stops the run at all.
One Divine Shake,
and you are at his beckon call.
Down the corridor and through
the bright,  light hall.
Did you fall asleep,  Is it all a haze.
Do you feel the nice warm glaze.
Can you hear the faith call,
as you are passing beyond,
that Great hall.
Do not let the light glare,
because my love you are rare......
No need to pout,  or moan about.
And my love no more doubts.

#1:  Beginning shows an image of a womb,  increasing in size,  as it progresses to the front of the screen. The final shot of the womb reveals an image of a baby foetus from within.  
The music here needs to be tranquil and slow moving in  
tempo. Almost like a nursery rhyme melody. 
Time Frame Lasting: 8 seconds.
 
 

 

 #2:  Slowly there is a transition of the womb into the shape of an egg timer,  again with the image of the baby foetus.  
The baby foetus is in the top half of the egg timer. Here the camera moves in on the egg timer,  until nearly all the screen is taken up by this image.  
At this stage the music still needs to be at a moderately slow rate,  with a only the smallest increase of tempo. 

Time Frame Lasting: 6 seconds. 

 #3:  The camera now pans (moves)in on the top half of the egg timer. This reveals a close up of the babies head.  
After this the camera pans out, it once more shows an  image on screen  of the whole of the egg timer.  
 
 
 

Time Frame Lasting: 11 seconds.
 
 
#4:  Then the camera  pans back on the whole image of the egg timer. 
Here the atmosphere changes. 
The egg timer begins to rotate,  around at 360.degrees. 
The egg timer takes on a cruciformed shape of a cross. 
The intensity of this shot should be highlighted by a rapid change in the tempo and loudness of the music. 
Perhaps building up into a huge cresendo.  
This shot ends with the spinning egg timer slowing down and finally stopping .  

Time Frame Lasting: 10 seconds.

 #5:  This again is an important part of the animation. This scene represents the start of the foetus' life.  
This is shown by the sand falling through the egg timer. 
I would like the music to be soft yet haunting here,  to emphasis the splendour yet mystery of this new life. 
 

Time Frame Lasting: 8 seconds 
 
 

 

 #6:  The camera shall be travelling up through this tunnel,  where it will pass through the centre of the tunnel. 
When the camera is at the beginning of the tunnel the music needs to be very haunting and frightening. 
However at half way stage there is a sense of peacefulness,  and the music should sound extremely tranquil. 

Time Frame Lasting: 10 seconds
 
S
#7:  Once the camera goes through the tunnel,  it comes out to reveal  a hand. This hand has sand flowing freely from it. 
Finally the last bit of sand falls from this hand . 
The music here should be slowing down yet not sad music. It should be pleaceful. 

Time Frame Lasting: 5 seconds
