The Story
Mr Paranoia wants to keep the city living in fear. Fear of interaction, fear of individuality, and fear of fun. He does this by implanting threatening thoughts into people’s heads, using threatening gazes and whispers. This keeps the people in fear. There can be many copies of Mr Paranoia in any given area. The Icrecream Superhero, on the other hand, wants the world to lighten up and have fun, as he thinks it’s not natural for people to live in fear. In order for the icecream superhero to do this, he needs to expose the cloaked Mr Paranoia, baring his vulnerable identity for all to see, and they will realise they do not need to fear something they know, and can overcome this with fun and human kindness.

The Script
* Dark & depressing urban environment, rain, people looking around scared. Train station, tall looming buildings. Camera descends from the smog in the air down into the trainstation environment. Most of the scene colours are extremely washed out or almost black and white.
* Mr Paranoia among the crowd, peeping in and out of areas on the screen, there are many copies of him. He whisper’s in someone’s ear “you’re going to get what’s coming”(synchronised to the song). Person becomes wary and whimpers, but continues on his journey along the platform. Camera follows person.
* Person struggles with paranoid thoughts 'icecream is going to save the day again' (song lyrics). Focus turns to an icecream stand which shines with heavenly light. Camera flies up into the clouds, sky is brilliant pink and blue, clouds resemble vanilla icecream, beautiful snowy wonderland. The Icrecream superhero flies by, his face stern with pride. But he senses wrong in the world below, and looks down to witness the doom and gloom. He strokes his chin for a moment in contemplation, wondering what he can do.
* The Icecream Superhero descends from the sky, a small child on the street points in awe as he flies by. The crowd around fixate on the Icecream Superhero as he lands in a circular courtyard nearby the trainstation. He starts handing out icecream (obviously in a super cool fashion like magicks!).Patches of brilliant sun begin to shine onto the world below, revealing brilliant colour. People begin to look happy.
* Mr Paranoia catches sight of the Icecream Superhero while hiding behind a building, and cowardly flings a knife at him. It grazes his shoulder in slow motion. The crowd is shocked and panicked. After a moment’s pause, the Icecream Superhero chases after Mr Paranoia. He finds Mr Paranoia on a top of a building. (insert epic battle scene).
* (mid battle) cut scene to the Icecream Superhero dancing with two citizens under a disco ball 'I don't need a number, I just wanna dance with my shirt off, dance with my shirt off' (song lyrics).
* (Dramatic fight end here!) Mr Paranoia is defeated, and the sun shines brightly as Mr Paranoia turns to dust and flies away in the wind. Freed from the hidden Mr Paranoia, the crowd cheer and the children play. (heartfelt ending here!). The scene is now shown in full colour and everyone is super happy.

That's a rough outline of the story. The official storyboard isn't yet ready for public eyes, but it'll go up as soon as it's ready. In the mean time, enjoy this animated gif of one of the children spinning! (click to see spinning goodness)
