More Color Keys
Changed time of day to mid-afternoon so there is more yellow/white light, and less red. Also, the light would be at a higher angle.

Synopsis #2 - The Frog the Toad
Concept
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Action
A frog and a toad are sitting on the side of a path. They are looking each other up and down, each of them convinced that they are much better looking than the other. After a while of preening, and showing off, they see a little girl walking along the path. As she gets near, the toad and the frog both puff out their chests for her, attempting to look better and more impressive than the other. The girl notices them, and screams "YEACHHHHHH!!!" She stomps on both the frog and the toad and takes off, running.
Mood
Light, Humorous
Characters
Frog - Smooth and green, medium build with large eyes and a slightly down-turned mouth. Long limbs. Looks pompous.
Toad - Small eyes, fatter than the frog, with a broad mouth and short limbs. Rough, bumpy brown skin. Looks bored.
Girl - About 7 years old, blond and wearing a simple dress.
Set
Main action takes place on the side of a dirt path. Vegetation is all around. A small bridge is in the distance. The time of day is afternoon.

Synopsis #1 - The Frog and the Tadpole
Concept
Deception can have bad consequences.
Action
On the bank of a pond, a fat, contented-looking frog sits quietly minding his own business. Suddenly he hears a a high-pitched croaking at his feet, and looks down to see a young tadpole frog holding a stick, wagging its tail, and looking up expectantly at the fat frog. The little tadpole drops the stick at the frogs feet and sticks its tongue out, panting like a dog. The frog roles his eyes, reluctantly picks up the stick, and tosses it a short distance away. The tadpole enthusiastically bounds after the stick, and quickly brings it back to the frog, dropping it at his feet again. The frog, annoyed, picks up the stick and throws it further this time. Again the tadpole retrieves the stick and brings it back. The frog picks up the stick and, with a mischievous grin makes a motion of hurling the stick far, far away, while actually hiding it behind his back. The little tadpole, thinking the stick had been thrown, hops after it, disappearing in the distance. Satisfied, the fat frog settles back to sitting quietly. A few moments later, he hears a commotion and opens his eyes to see the tadpole holding a crocodile tail in its mouth. Realizing that the tadpole has just dragged back a large, very hungry looking crocodile, the frog leaps away in terror, with the tadpole gleefully following him.
Mood
Light, Cute, Humorous
Characters
Fat frog - Simple oval shape with large eyes, rolls of fat and skin, small and skinny front legs, and a large frown.
Tadpole - Small oval shape with huge eyes, simply defined mouth, very short skinny legs and a large tadpole tail. Tongue can stretch very long or short
Set
Main action takes place on the bank of a pond. The bank is sandy and muddy, with various pond vegetation around. Trees and tall grass make up the background. The pond is covered with lily pads and lilies. The time of day is late afternoon, but the bank is heavily shaded.
