Good Prediction

I was doing a super spring clean job in my bedroom when I found this. It's a storyboard I submitted to the TELETOON Scholarship Contest in 2004, the subject was "Your Future", and we had a two page limit... I came up with this. I still like the artwork, I find the storytelling good enough, too. But I wasn't chosen as a finalist. Ah, well.

I'm also too lazy to translate directly on the image, so... non-French speakers, read below.

Panel 1
Sam pushes the curtain, gets in and closes the curtain behind her.
Zana: Yes, get in...

Panel 2
Sam gets in while Zana speaks to her.
Zana: Sit down. What do you want to know?

Panel 3
Sam leans forward towards the crystal ball. Her face shows up in it.
Sam: I want to know my future!
While Zana places her hands on the ball while leaninmg towards Sam, Sam backs away.
Zana: Certainly.

Panel 4
Zana raises her arms over the ball and leans over it. Smoke rises inside the ball.
Zana: Oommm... I see...

Panel 5
While Zana's hands go down and the smoke still goes up, Sam shows up from behind the ball. She nervously plays with her shirt.
Sam: So? What do you see?

Panel 6
Sam proudly brandishes an Oscar. A man applauses. A crowd in the background takes pictures.
Sam: (off) Will I win an Oscar for Best Animated Short?

Panel 7
Zana moves her hands around the crystal ball. The smoke goes up.
Zana: No.

Panel 8
Sam backs away still nervously playing with her shirt.
Sam: No?... Okay.

Panel 9
Sam poses with her family, a butterfly comes in and leaves.
Sam: Will I have a happy husband and three fabulous kids?

Panel 10
Zana keeps moving her hands around the ball. The smoke still rises.
Zana: ...No.

Panel 11
Sam gets angry and begins pulling on her shirt.
Sam: No?! What do you see then?!

Panel 12
Zana moves her hands around the ball. The smoke keeps rising.
Zana: I see... I see that, within an hour...

Panel 13
While Sam glances down and realizes she's ripped her shirt,
Zana: You'll change shirt.
