storyline- posthuman
The opening scene that shows the lives of the poor living beneath the city. In the foreground is a human fixing his cyborg arm. The camera zooms into the background to reveal a kid’s face that’s part cyborg. The camera then pans up to enter next scene.
- The next scene pans through the Engineer’s work place. Showing the brain read by the machine that controls a screen and connected to a video camera. The camera pans to a cyborg running on breathing lungs, typing on a modern keyboard. The scene pans up to show the Earth’s surface.
- This scene shows the Earths burning surface. Surface temp text appears in right corner. Camera zooms out of sun to show skyline and then zooms into Governments’ building. White flash appears as transition.
- The government scene starts with a cyborg running in from right. When it reaches the table it extends a platform that the brain sits on. At that moment the brain reading machines appear and the system starts. The camera pans up to follow the cables of the brain machine to reveal the super computer. A CG face with cables and wires with white flickers behind.

Narration for posthuman
Narration
It happened when the planet burned and those of us who rejected the post human revolution were left for dead. Those of us who wanted to keep our human resemblance and not be run by machines.
Our only help comes from the Engineer, a brain connected to machines that read its thoughts and controls a cyborg.
It’s been 5 years since the Earth changed its orbit around the Sun making the surface impossible to live on… unless you embrace the Government.
The 8 minds that created the new way of life and brought humans to salvation.
Connected by machines the 8 brains communicate with each other to control a super computer that regulates life on Earth.
