A traditional hand-drawn FILM STORYBOARD SHEET for scene 1: one page divided into a clean 3x3 grid of NINE separate rectangular panels, three rows of three, each panel a 16:9 rectangle with a thin ruled black border and a small hand-written panel number in its top-left corner from 1 to 9. Thin white gutters between panels. Off-white paper background with faint tooth. MEDIUM, STRICT: rough graphite pencil drawing only. Loose confident director's sketch, visible pencil strokes, hatching and smudged shading for shadow, some construction lines left in. Monochrome grey graphite, NO colour anywhere, NO paint, NO digital rendering, NO photorealism. It must look drawn by hand on paper in a few minutes per panel. No named characters — stage the action with anonymous figures. Divide the following 14-second scene into NINE consecutive story beats yourself, in strict chronological order, and draw one panel per beat. Vary the shot size between panels — do not draw nine versions of the same framing. THE SCENE: 0-4s static wide: horses step in from the left edge. 4-8s the chariot crosses a third of the frame to the right. 8-11s medium: the crowd on the right raises its arms and throws red petals. 11-14s one tilt up to the Colosseum while petals are still falling. The NARRATOR speaks 0:01-0:12 as V.O. (dry warm baritone, no mouth moves). Ambience: hooves, crowd roar. Draw camera arrows and simple motion lines in pencil where movement matters, and keep every panel's staging consistent with the one before it — this sheet is a shooting plan, so a person standing screen-left in one panel stays screen-left in the next unless the action moves them. NO text or captions anywhere except the small panel numbers 1 to 9. No title block, no handwriting in the margins, no speech bubbles, no subtitles, no watermark, no logo.
