The adventures of John Storm and the Elizabeth Swann. John Storm is an ocean adventurer and conservationist. The Elizabeth Swann is a fast solar powered boat. During a race around the world, news of the sinking of a pirate whaling ship reaches John Storm and his mate Dan Hawk. They decide to abandon the race and try and save the whale. This is a modern Moby Dick, the twist being that there is a happy ending for everyone featuring this $Billion Dollar Whale, even the whalers. Herman Melville would approve.

 

 

 

RASH MOVE <<<

 

In this chapter, Kulo Luna is in pain, confused and still suffering from shock, from her bruising encounter with the Suzy Wong.

 

As she swims further off course south, she is leaving a trail of blood that attracts the unwanted attention of three great white sharks in the vicinity, but she is getting weaker by the minute.

 

 

THE BRIEF

 

For this scene, aim for 1 pages (side) and 3 illustrations, suggested as:

 

1. Another overhead shot of Kulo Luna swimming in the open ocean with a blood stained wake and a compass rose to indicated direction (check coordinates for position).

2. Three great while sharks finding the blood scent left by the big whale.

3. The great white sharks closing in on Kulo Luna.
