RME-232 · Don't be Sally · elements first

Everything the Black Friday series needs, counted once

All twelve ideas from the Don't be Sally series, gone through scene by scene. Every person, prop, place, floor and movement is listed once, with how many videos use it and whether it is already drawn. The look is the 2.5D cut-out: the white sticker outline, brand colours, egg people, floors that change per scene. Library first, so nothing already drawn gets drawn again.

8 people, 43 props, 10 scenes, 6 floors, 35 movements, 60 already drawn, 12 to redraw, 34 new. Vy could draw 22 of them.

The build order, one piece at a time

Only the pieces still to draw, most reused first, so the first few you confirm unlock the most videos. A move comes straight after the piece it moves. Places are assembled last, from their floor, backdrop and props. Claude builds a piece, you confirm it, then the next.

The master list

People 8

Who is in the series. Looks wait on Vy's cast pick.

BF-P01

Sally Send, the sender

In the egg rigVy could draw

Runs Coral Cove Coffee and sends to everyone, all the time. In every video.

In 12 of 12: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

From: egg cast role 1 (egg-cast.html), M-11 name card

Who: Vy picks the look

The egg cast already has her as role 1 with three look options. Her final look waits on Vy's cast pick (RME-136). In the cut-out look she is the person, not the name card.

BF-P02

The loyal subscriber

In the egg rigVy could draw

The teal readers who want the email: they open, they come to dinner, they set off first.

In 7 of 12: 2 3 4 6 8 10 12

From: egg cast role 2

Who: Vy picks the look

BF-P03

The quiet one

In the egg rigVy could draw

Readers who drift off and fade to grey: the old friends she has not called in years.

In 5 of 12: 2 3 4 6 7

From: egg cast role 4

Who: Vy picks the look

BF-P04

The one who moved on

In 2 of 12: 6 7

From: egg cast role 5

BF-P06

The one who forgot and pressed spam

NewVy could draw

Does not remember signing up, so raises the amber spam flag.

In 4 of 12: 2 3 6 7

Who: Vy designs

Not in the egg cast yet. Four videos need this person, more than any other new role.

Not drawn yet

BF-P07

The stranger from the raffle

NewVy could draw

Met Sally once at her free coffee raffle and got added anyway. Holds a raffle ticket.

In 1 of 12: 7

Who: Vy designs

Not in the egg cast. Could be one of the crowd with a raffle ticket and a question mark, instead of a full role.

Not drawn yet

BF-P08

The steady sender

NewVy could draw

Sally's calm opposite: sends to a rhythm and takes the stairs, not the lift.

In 2 of 12: 5 9

Who: Vy designs

Not in the egg cast. The storyboards draw this as a calm line. In the cut-out look it needs a person beside Sally.

Calls only you can make

  1. The end card (BF-O39): a piece with the sticker outline, or the words layer without one?
  2. The chart scenes (BF-S09): on a big board in Sally's office, as proposed, or on plain paper like video1?
  3. The pickle (BF-O37): may it have a face, or does it stay a plain object?
  4. YT's extra items (Christmas hat, shopping bags, cars, lambs, clogs): which to keep, and where they go.

Is this the right list to build from?

Built by review-kit/examples/black-friday-elements.gen.py from social-media/video-concepts/black-friday-elements.json, which is built from black-friday-sally/storyboards.json. Small pictures are drawn live from the cut-out kit (dictionary-pieces.js, floors.js, the Coral Cove sample) and the egg rig. People show placeholder egg looks until Vy picks the cast. List only: nothing new is drawn on this page.
