I Hate Snow

I Hate Snow

Project Overview



This is a dream project I have in mind right now that I'm hoping will be made into reality someday! Unfortunately, due to lack of money, I can't really hire animators or voice actors. I plan on making this a short animated film; a comedy about a young lady who has an immense hatred for snow, and her friends who can't seem to understand her grumpy attitude.

I Hate Snow stars Abigail Lynn, a 24 year old struggling writer who had her 5 minutes of fame when she published a critically acclaimed book at the age of 21. Now she's been running on mediocrity and is currently having a writers block. And she blames it on the current winter phenomenon going on across the country. She thought she could get away from all the snow when she moved to North Carolina, but this winter blast has made it nearly impossible to avoid any sort of flurries whatsoever.

This story focuses on this one particular week of winter weather, and Abigail's struggle and hatred towards the snow.

Like I said, this isn't an actual project I have my mind on right now. I actually have something else in my mind right now. I write scripts, a lot of them, and if you wanna check out some of my other screenplays, please check out my deviantart!

Raymond White (Age 26).

Raymond is a good friend of Abigail's, and a bit of a goofball. He's not a terribly bright man, and definitely not one to take a hint. His naivete is his charm, but his talent lies in his artistic skills.

Raymond is a very talented artist and collaborates often with his wife, Lucy. He's a good-hearted man whose words are often a bit blunt, if not somewhat offensive.

  • Well hey, maybe your hatred towards snow has something to do with who you were before you were born. Like, ya know, a past life or something. Maybe you were a cold-blooded animal in the past!

  • Oh, Lucy's out doing stuff. I'm not really sure what, she never tells me where she goes cuz apparently I never listen, or always forget, or something. Ya gonna finish that pancake?

  • Oh boy...(calling Abigail) Hey Abby, it's me Ray. Yeah uh, listen, I'm not quite sure how to tell you this but your car is um...it's going down hill. By itself.

Mr. Snuggles (Age 6/Cat)

I'd love to hear Mr. Snuggles have a mature, serious voice with a deep tone. I want him to sound sort of thespian-like, like someone from a Shakespeare play or a Harvard professor.

Mr. Snuggles, or rather, "Lord" Snuggles as he prefers it, is a five year old semi-omnipotent cat that narrates the story from time to time. Despite his being a cat, Snuggles is a very wise cat that constantly gives life lessons relating the character's struggle.

  • This is the tale of a young lady named Abigail. Abigail isn't a terribly special person, but she's not utterly dull either. She's a good samaritan, one who obeys the law, cleans her dishes, recycles, and occasionally binges on Super Sentai shows.

  • Come and join me, we shall explore this snippet of her life together. My name is Mr. Snuggles, but you may call me Lord Snuggles, and I will be your guide on this journey. Meow.

  • Oh? What is this maleficent circle doing here? I-I cannot grab it! This dot vexes me and taunts my very being! What sort of madness is this!?

Abigail Lynn (Age 24).

Abigail is a cynical young lady who often keeps her sardonic nature to herself; always mocking people in her head. Her outlook on life is simple, and her morals are easy to follow. While she's nice enough to approach and kind enough to trust, her hatred towards snow makes her different in a way. Always annoyed and grumpy. She's the same ole Abigail, just pissed is all.

Abigail isn't a terribly interesting young lady, nor is she a an incredibly boring one. Some might say she borders between average and mildly interesting. While her lifestyle isn't as exciting as others, her personality makes up for it.

  • You remember that one scene in Fargo where the guy is scraping ice off his windshield? Yeah? Well that's me. (attempts to scrape ice off windshield) That's me every morning (increasingly angry as she can't remove the ice) That's me every FRIGGIN' MORNING-(throws the scraper on the floor) GODDAMMIT!

  • (subconsciously) You sure you weren't an ass in your past life? (waiter serves her pancakes) Oooh! Pancakes!

  • What? No! Don't be silly, I never had any sort of traumatic experience as a kid. (subconsciously) Actually, that's not entirely true. When I was a kid my mom had a fatal accident during a blizzard. It was a bummer, but other than that my childhood was decent!

Lucy White (Age 25)

Lucy is a bit more serious than her husband, Ray. Though it can't be denied that they are total lovebirds when they're together; opposites attract after all. Like Abigail, Lucy is also a writer but she usually writes graphic novels and has even worked on a movie once. Her artistic skills aren't as impressive as her husband's, but her writing is always very detailed.

Unlike Abby, however, she never had trouble gaining popularity. Lucy's writing is widely recognized, and though she has had more fame than her dear friend, Lucy is very humble about it. In a way, Lucy doesn't care much for the limelight, she's simply happy that people have something to read or watch.

  • (To Ray) Sweetie, shut up. (To Abigail) Abby, you sure you didn't have some traumatic accident that lead you to dislike snow? I mean it's just not normal to hate it for no reason.

  • Hey! I have a perfectly good reason to hate my last name! Kids used to tease me all the time about it, and they were relentless. Cockburn, ugh. So glad I married you, Ray.

  • *sigh* I honestly can't believe I thought my last name was cool. It had the word 'burn' in it, which is awesome. It wasn't until I was 10 that I found out the word in front of it was slang for...well, you know.

Terry Pinkett (Age 24)

Terry is a timid flower who's close friends with Abigail. They've known each other since high school and have been inseparable ever since. Abigail and Terry have form a bond with three other young women, however while they've all gone their separate ways, Abigail and Terry, through coincidence, happened to end up living close by. In the same state, and the same town.

While Terry may seem timid at first, she becomes very loquacious when a subject she is fascinated with comes up. Terry's a movie buff, and is trying to build a reputation as an actress.

While it may seem her shy demeanor might be unsuitable for her career choice, it is actually the complete opposite; Terry has the ability to stay calm and cool when the cameras are rolling, and she becomes a completely different person.

  • Aw come on, Abby! What's the point of living next to the park if you're just gonna lay in bed watching T.V all day? 

  • Whoa, what happened to your car!? It's all dented and junk! Did you get into an accident? Are you alright?!

  • Holy cow! Look at this snowman! Ray, you're amazing at this! I wish I was as creative as you. Usually my snowmen are a bit, um, lackluster...

Johnny Hill (Age 36)

Johnny is the young owner and waiter of Red Hot Devil, a local successful restaurant that our characters hang around. While he's not someone who personally hangs out with the group, he does recognize them as his most frequent customers and does occasionally chat with them.

Johnny lives a modern American life, bordering the lines of wealthy and middle class. He's a single father to his 8 year old daughter, Amelia. Unfortunately his wife wasn't around very long to see their daughter grow up, as she was tragically diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after Amelia's birth.

Johnny is a tall man with a very intimidating presence. He's a no-nonsense kind of guy who worked his way from the bottom just to live his dream as the owner of his own restaurant. While his demeanor is a bit frightening and his dialogue crude, he's a complete softy towards his daughter who he loves dearly.

  • Sure sweetie, you come to work with me. Just try not to bug the fellas; they're a lil' "grumpy" in the mornin'. Okay?

  • Well I'll be damned, the guys are actually takin' a liking to the lil blabbermouth. Hmm? Yo, Simon! Where you takin' that food, man? That's the wrong table!

  • Yeah, you're right, I ain't a big fan of the snow either. It just sucks, ya know? Slippery floors, stores closed, can't drive nowhere, hell sometimes the guys give me bull excuses just cuz they're too scared to drive to work that day. But the snow does give me time to be with my daughter, and that's good. That's real good.
