This storyboard outlines scenes for a short film called "The Dark." It describes shots following a child who goes into a forest with his father. The father disappears, frightening the child. The child sees a dark figure and thinks it is his father, but its eyes glow red. The child runs away in fear. Later, the father finds the child hiding behind a tree and says "Got you," revealing it was just a game of hide and seek. The storyboard provides technical details for each shot as well as diegetic and non-diegetic sounds to set the mood.
