**MAIN EVENT SHOWDOWN**

**THE DEATH OF KOLARIS**

Basic Concept – Two brothers fight to the death over the resurrection of an ancient being called a Titan. All the while, the sun Kolaris, is on the brink of supernova. Yakin, the evil brother, is rounding up the rest of the planets inhabitants to sacrifice them to resurrect the Titan. He believes the Titan can lead him to a portal that’s rumored to lead to another world.  Marian, the good brother, is cast out of hiding to try and stop Yakin. While Yakin is made to be seen as the main antagonist, it’s revealed that there is a person in the shadows whispering into Yakin’s ear, who has an even larger, more sinister planning looming for Norya.

The Hero - Marian

The Physical Goal – Stop Yakin from sacrificing more people and resurrecting the Titan.

The Emotional Goal – Confront Yakin for the first time since he murdered their parents and attempted to murder Marian.

Personal Obstacle – Marian hasn’t practiced Magic in decades. He fears that unloading so much magic so quickly may kill him. In the end, where Marian we finds out he’s a demi-god and half-brother to Galvant. Which leads him to unleash his full demi-god powers.

The Villain - Galvant

Justification – Galvant is the son of Azeal, the god of this planet. Long ago, during a way with his own brother, he lost the right to his body. Now he uses vessels and jumps to a new body, when the current one can’t contain his power. Galvant is the Emperor Palpatine to Yakin. He is using Yakin to resurrect the Titan so he can use it as a vessel and finally have a body strong enough to hold all his power.

Medium – Animated Feature Film

Why does it make sense? How does the story take advantage of
the medium?

There’s several different avenues we can take when we go with feature film. We can go live action with cgi, full cgi or even animated. With how big this story is and the events described, I think an animated feature would make the most sense. I don’t see this dragging on to be a TV show, and it might be too visually intense enough to be a comic or graphic novel.

Platform – Streaming Services

Why does it make sense? How does the story take advantage of the medium

Streaming Services are the way to go in terms of movies nowadays. In the next five or so years, I believe most movies will be on streaming services, with a large chunk of them actually premiering on these services.

Additive Comprehension

We learn a lot of things from this:

1. What happens with the sun.

2. What happens to Norya’s inhabitants.

3. Through the interactive graphic novel: additional information and history.
