Cinematic Storyboard Grid 2 for Animated Short Film

Create a detailed cinematic 6-panel storyboard grid arranged 3 columns × 2 rows, covering the next 15 seconds of an animated short film. Overall canvas aspect ratio 16:9. Use the attached Jema character sheet as the exact character reference and the attached Jema's Apartment interior sheet as the exact environment and handbag reference. REFERENCE LOCK Jema: Reproduce the exact character from the attached character sheet. Maintain her face, warm tan skin, brown eyes, platinum-blonde messy bun with loose front strands, body proportions, black button-up blouse, high-waisted black corporate trousers, black belt with gold buckle, black heels and gold jewelry. Apartment: Treat the apartment reference as a fixed physical set, not inspiration. Maintain the exact floor plan, entryway, kitchen geometry, cabinetry, island, refrigerator, living room, sofa, TV wall, furniture, doors, lighting fixtures, décor and spatial relationships shown in the reference. The apartment must not be redesigned between panels. Only Jema, the camera and movable props change position. Handbag: The exact black Hermès Birkin 25 remains on the cream sofa where Jema threw it in Grid 1. Structured black leather, two short top handles and gold hardware. No shoulder strap or long strap. Maintain visual continuity from Grid 1 and from one panel to the next. ⸻ PANEL 1 - DRINKING WATER | 0:15–0:17.5 Medium shot of Jema standing behind the kitchen island/counter, on the kitchen side of the counter. The kitchen island is physically between Jema and the camera. She raises the same clear glass of water from Grid 1 to her lips and drinks from it. Her posture is relaxed. Her expression is calm and satisfied. The water level inside the glass is visible. Jema must remain behind the counter. Do not place her beside, in front of, or outside the kitchen island. Camera: Medium cinematic shot from the living-room side of the island, looking across the countertop toward Jema in the kitchen. ⸻ PANEL 2 - SATISFIED | 0:17.5–0:20 Medium close-up of Jema still standing behind the same kitchen counter. She has finished taking a sip and lowers the glass away from her lips. Her expression is quietly satisfied and relaxed. The glass remains in her hand and contains some water. The countertop remains visibly between Jema and the camera to establish that she is still standing inside the kitchen behind the island. Camera: Medium close-up from across the kitchen island, focused on Jema's face and upper body with the kitchen behind her. ⸻ PANEL 3 - LEAVING THE KITCHEN | 0:20–0:22 Wide shot showing the exact kitchen and its relationship to the living room. The clear drinking glass has now been placed on the kitchen counter. Jema is behind the kitchen island on the kitchen side, walking toward the opening at the refrigerator side of the counter. Capture her as she is coming around the end of the island beside the refrigerator, leaving the enclosed kitchen-counter area and heading toward the living room. Her posture is casual and relaxed. The kitchen island, refrigerator and living room must remain in their exact reference positions so her path around the refrigerator side of the counter is visually clear. Camera: Wide cinematic shot showing Jema's full body, the kitchen island, refrigerator and her route out toward the living room. ⸻ PANEL 4 - SUDDEN PAUSE | 0:22–0:24 Medium-wide shot in the living room. Jema has now reached the living area and is standing directly behind the cream sofa. The sofa is between Jema and the camera. She suddenly stops mid-step behind the couch. Her body is still positioned as though she was walking away from the kitchen, but her head tilts slightly as something catches her attention. Her expression is mildly curious and attentive. No shock yet. The black Hermès Birkin remains on the sofa cushion. Camera: Medium-wide cinematic shot from the living-room side of the sofa, with the cream sofa in the foreground and Jema standing directly behind it. ⸻ PANEL 5 - REALIZATION | 0:24–0:27.5 Medium shot of Jema after partially turning back. Her relaxed expression has disappeared. Her eyes are noticeably wider, eyebrows raised and lips slightly parted. She looks stunned and confused, as though she has just heard something completely unexpected. The reaction should feel genuine and comedic, but not yet angry. Camera: Medium frontal three-quarter shot focused on Jema's changing expression, with the established apartment softly visible behind her. ⸻ PANEL 6 - SHOCKED AND OFFENDED | 0:27.5–0:30 Tight cinematic close-up of Jema's face. Her expression has escalated from surprise into shocked, offended disbelief. Her brown eyes are wide open, eyebrows raised, mouth open, with visible facial tension as the shock begins turning into anger. She looks completely appalled by what she has just heard. The expression should be highly expressive and comedic while preserving Jema's exact facial design. Camera: Tight cinematic close-up centered on Jema's face with very shallow depth of field and the apartment heavily softened behind her. STYLE & CONTINUITY Polished 3D Pixar-inspired animated-film aesthetic, cinematic framing, expressive but natural facial animation, soft evening interior lighting and shallow depth of field. Treat all six panels as consecutive shots filmed inside one unchanged apartment set. Panels 1 and 2: Jema is behind the kitchen counter. Panel 3: Jema walks out from behind the kitchen counter specifically from the refrigerator side. Panel 4: Jema is directly behind the cream sofa. Panels 5 and 6 continue her emotional reaction. The keys remain on the entry console. The black Hermès Birkin remains on the cream sofa. The drinking glass remains on the kitchen counter after Jema leaves the kitchen. No speech bubbles, captions, timestamps, panel titles or written text inside the storyboard. Visuals only. 16:9 ratio for both the grid and the frames
