Scientific storyboard sheet for a 3D animated children's film, soft stylized 3D render, the white-sand coral reef bottom of image 2 seen through a macro lens, no text and no numbers. Six panels in one row, read left to right, each joined to the next by a simple bold arrow pointing right. The animal is the immortal jellyfish Turritopsis, anatomy exactly like the real one in image 1: a tiny transparent bell taller than it is wide, shaped like a thimble, with a bright red-orange stomach inside and a fringe of many fine thread-like tentacles around the rim. Panel 1: the tiny jellyfish, only a few millimetres, swimming above the sand. Panel 2: the weakened jellyfish has sunk to the sand, its bell folding and its tentacles pulling in. Panel 3: it has shrunk into a small round soft blob, a cyst, lying on the sand with the red-orange colour inside. Panel 4: from the blob thin creeping tubes, the stolon, spread across the sand like tiny branching roots. Panel 5: from the stolon several slim upright polyps grow, each a spindle-shaped body on a thin stalk with fine thread-like tentacles scattered around its upper part. Panel 6: new tiny jellyfish bud off the side of the polyps and swim away, each a small thimble-shaped bell with a red-orange centre.
