Stop MOtion Drawring

Well since i intend to use natural elements and go with my third idea, I will be mostly drawing with dirt and various natural elements. and at one time charcoal. SO! into the chronology of events.

White canvas opens the screen as two forms of dirt swirl together into a sphere. Constantly swirling the sphere gives way to a ring that revolves around it. As the center of the sphere gets smaller more rings pull around it forming an atom. As it twists and turn the rings spin of to hit the bottom of the canvas leaving the single orb above just levitating gently until it shoots into the ground. In small burts, tiny twigs poke through the dirt at the bottom as a tree growing from soil. Once the tree is fully formed, small bits of fruit grow from it. These will be drawn in Charcoal. One fruit drops from the tree and is decomposed on the base of the frame. A small man digs his way up from the ground where the fruit lay (and this as well is drawn with charcoal). As the man emerges another fruit drop from the tree to following the same pattern as the former only a woman emerges as the man stands and watches. Immediately they rush to each other meeting underneath the last fruit hanging from the tree. They each pick the fruit at the same time as the tree shrivels up and dies. The fruit grows over everything leaving a now black canvas. pause for a few seconds on the abyss as bits of white emerge on the black. white lines first draw a cube that slowly rotates and turns. Lines of the square stretch out and multiply till horizontal white lines fill the screen giving a sense of depth. Small white lines spring up from the horizontal, forming cities. Suddenly a large rift splits in the center of the canvas and the charcoal is erased away starting from the outside to seem as the charcoal is falling into the rift. Finally as only a white canvas is left dirt springs from the opening as it seals itself back up. (done by filming a second canvas being ripped and reversing the footage) The cycle is restarted once more.
