Project #1: Initial Plan
A comic: At the Moulin Rouge
It starts in black and white, blowing through Henri's childhood quickly. It shows his love of art, a strained relationship with his father, his fall, his subsequent growing up, and then a fight with his father at which point he leaves his childhood home.
Now, it transitions to color. It begins with him at the Moulin Rouge, drinking and sketching. A beautiful woman, Rosa, enters, singing, and it is very clear Henri is enamored of her. There is even a soft radiance about her. She leaves with another man however and he gets more and more drunk before stumbling home. The world is spinning and blurry, hellish in his mind, changed because of all of the alcohol he drank.
The next day, Henri is outside the Moulin Rouge, sees Rosa kissing the other guy in an alley. Shows her glow fading in his mind. He is heartbroken over it.
He gets very drunk that night, the world inside the Moulin Rouge gaining the hellish quality of the night before. He passes out there.
He wakes up, home, in bed, his parents standing over him. This is the first time he's seen his father in years. His dad is yelling, looking angry, making gestures. There's a juxtaposed shot in black and white of his father when he left and now. He's aged, but the expression is identical.
Henri turns away from him and says, “Good papa. I knew you would not miss the kill.” Then he closes his eyes and the world goes black.
The style of art I am aiming for is similar to Arthur Rackham's, but I want to incorporate some of the images in Toulous's posters when possible.
