Polar Bears in Danger
OUTLINE:


 * Movie Outline:**

I am going to do my movie on global warming. I am going to talk about what is happening negatively to our earth. I am going to especially focus on ice caps and glaciers melting. I am going to concentrate on how the polar bears are dying. The frozen ice caps and glaciers that they live on are melting thanks to our outrageous use of greenhouse gases. When their homes melt they try to swim somewhere else, and find a new place to live. The only problem is polar bears cannot swim that far. They are not meant to swim, so they end up drowning. They also have to swim a lot to find food. In my movie I would like to tell people the problems that global warming does to our cute, fuzzy, polar bears. I will use pictures that I draw and pictures from the internet. I do not think that there will be any videos in my movie, just pictures. I will narrate the story. The main character in my movie (and probably the only character) will be a polar bear telling the people about these issues. It will be funny, but the message will be serious. I do not know what music I will use. This will make a difference because maybe after people see this they will cut down on the usage of gas, and electronics, and global warming will be less of an issue.

 * DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF SCENES:**

Act 1- The opening page is a picture of polar bears: http://www.lightmillennium.org/2006_18th/image/irem_polar_bear.jpg picture of polar bear with cub

Act1- Then you will see I picture that I drew of a Mother polar bear will her baby the background will have snow and stuff like that (Mrs. Bear and Baby Bears) The bigger bear will say (really my voice): “Thanks to global warming us polar bears are in danger, thanks to you humans, our biggest enemy. My babies and I live in Alaska, where it used to be able to hunt seals (picture will change to a polar bear devouring a seal from internet http://www.ourstolenfuture.org/Images/figures/2003/2003-0401pbseal.jpg ) openly. But now (picture will change to picture of mother polar bear and cubs: http://hk.science.museum/temp-exh/wildlifephoto/images/wildlife01.jpg ) because of “global warming” the ice caps that we live on are melting (switch to picture from online of bear jumping from a piece of ice to another: http://nasadaacs.eos.nasa.gov/articles/images/2006_seaice_polarbear.jpg )and we have to swim some where, and find a new place to live.."

Act 2- my picture of a polar bear swimming, then to a picture from internet of cubs: http://www.solarnavigator.net/animal_kingdom/animal_images/Polar_bear_cubs_ursus_maritimus.jpg Baby bear says (my voice): but we cant swim for a couple of hours, before we drown. Even if we could swim forever, it is really hard to find a new place to live. If you guys keep on using up all the green house gases we will never find a home that we can stay in for a long time. Other Baby Bear says: Our fur is so thick because we usually live in the cold weather, but not it is getting hotter and we get too warm (my picture of a polar bear sweating). Please help us survive. It is getting harder and harder to find food (picture (mine) of seal)

Act 3- slow, sad, music plays while cute pictures of polar bears flash over the screen (from internet) for about one to two minutes. Some pictures might include: http://climateprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/polar-bear-tongue.jpeg http://www.popartuk.com/g/l/lg3737+polar-bear-playtime-polar-bears-poster.jpg http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/staticfiles/NGS/Shared/StaticFiles/animals/images/primary/polar-bear-coaxing-baby.jpg Then a picture that I drew comes on of the polar bear family Mrs. Bear says: "it will make a difference to my family and my whole species, as well as the world we both share. Cut down on your computer and television use, take the bus instead of driving your car, and you will help us, and help save our world, so please try to make a difference.(picture switches to a picture drawn by me of the three polar bears with lots of snow around them) Thank you."

Credits: I will give internet links giving credit to the pictures I took from the Internet


 * Comments:**

Nicoles Comment: You should say more about how global warming is ruining the polar bears home. You should say what is happening to the polar bears, because of global warming. Its a really good idea though.

Yasick - this is good, and i like how you use characters in the story. But how will u make them talk in your voice? that'll be hard. And a suggestion, if ur talkin bout fuzzy, cute, animals, dont include the picture with the dead seal.
