Creating a graphic novel but stopping along the way to take some photos, eat some food and admire great art!

TANGO 8 – Script

I had hoped to find a collaborator to do the artwork so I wrote a panel by panel breakdown. Unfortunately I couldn’t find someone to complete the works so I ended up with the pencils. I’ll show the artwork in an upcoming post.

What’s in a Sauce?
Panel 1 –
Long panel. Woman (short spiky hair) with her back facing the reader. Head turned with face looking at the reader. Bottle of red wine sitting on a counter.

Woman : Can’t wait to try the wine. So how was dinner?
Friend : Mmm . . Food was great. Especially the mushroom sauce. What’s the secret?

[Panel 2, 3 & 4 are a sequence of different shots of her head. She’s “explaining” the secret. Angles should change]

Panel 2 –
Angle of face (looking left)

Woman : It’s an old family recipe.

Panel 3 –
Angle of face (looking up)

Woman : Mushrooms, creams, onions . . .

Panel 4 –
Angle of face (looking right) – One eye winking

Woman : . . . and lots of LOVE for flavour.

Panel 5 –
Final long panel. Focus on rubbish bin with an opened package “Instant Mushroom Sauce“. The wine and the woman should be in the scene to anchor the story.

Woman : Grandma always said to think about the person you care about when making the sauce. That’s the SECRET to making it great.
