EJERCICIO DE BREAKDOWN

DISEÑO DE ARTE

SELENE MARTÍNEZ

GUIÓN: THE SHAPE OF WATER


GUILLERMO DEL TORO (2017)

COLORES UTILIZADOS:
3 3 INT. KITCHEN, ELISA’S APARTMENT - SAME

A WALL CLOCK- its minute hand slides into position-


TACK!:
10:55 PM.

Elisa rips off a leaf from a wall calendar and opens a


window, letting the fresh air in. Her hair is wet and
she nervously looks at the clock on the wall.

The Calendar leaf back reads: “Time is but a river


flowing from our past.”

CLACK! 11:00 PM

Elisa stares at a WALL OF SHOES. Chooses a GREEN PAIR.


Shines them, quietly- alone- at the table. Puts them
on.
Another siren goes by.

CLACK! 11:01 PM

She takes out 3 hardboiled eggs- still steaming- out


of a pot. Uses the calendar sheet to pack one, plus
saltines and a small mustard and a half pickle sand-
wich on a paper bag.

Two eggs and a half sandwich go onto a small plate.

She undoes the three locks on her door (light & music
intensifies still emanating from the floorboards) and...
5 5 INT. GILES APARTMENT - NIGHT
Full of books. ENTIRELY full of them. Here and there
are halffinished illustrations. Large original art from
ADVERTISEMENTS. Two cats- SNOWFLAKE and LILLIE stroll
lazily.
GILES
(over sirens)
Did the sirens wake you up?

Hard at work at a drawing table- is GILES: late 60’s,


refined and prim: wool vest, bow tie and tortoiseshell
glasses. When he speaks he has a ever-so-slight stut-
ter (which gets worse when he gets nervous).

GILES (CONT’D)
It’s a fire. The chocolate factory.
It rained a little - not enough to
put it out... Rains are late this
year... You smell that? Toasted
cocoa. Tragedy and delight- hand in
hand...

Giles is coloring an illustration of a happy family


around a BRIGHT RED JELL-O MOLD. A sign reads: THE FU-
TURE IS HERE!!

On his forehead: THREE pairs of eyeglasses. He raises


one and lowers another one- grabs a brush. We see a
toupee resting on top of an acrylic paint box.

Elisa puts the eggs and carrot down on a side table.


He caresses/taps her cheek.

GILES (CONT’D)
Oh, Darling child. I’d waste away
to nothing without you looking
after me. I am the proverbial
starving artist am I not?

Shirley Temple dances on the stairs with Bojangles on


“The Little Colonel”.
GILES (CONT’D)
Oh- watch that- Bojangles- the
stair dance.

He slides his chair to see better.

GILES (CONT’D)
Will you look at that? Very hard to
do. Cagney did it- different- but
beautiful- we should watch that one
day...

Elisa looks at the TV. Does a few tap steps. Sirens go


by.

GILES (CONT’D)
Elisa: Wake me up when you come
back. Breakfast’s on me, Child.

He goes back to his painting. Looks in the mirror and


smiles.
Paints the smile on the father figure in the ad.
13 INT. HERDING AREA - NIGHT 13

WORKERS are moving out. A GOLF CART arrives with MP’s

Elisa runs and barely makes it. Yolanda, a Latin girl,


protests.

A PUNCH CLOCKS, Standing in line we see ZELDA, a plump


African American woman in her 30’s. She signals Elisa
to get in.

Elisa runs and barely makes it. Yolanda a Latin girl,


protests.

YOLANDA
Hey- watch it, Dummy!!

ZELDA
Leave her alone, Woman. I was
keeping her place.

YOLANDA
I get reported- I come looking for
you and the mute...

ZELDA
You do that, Yolanda. You do that.

Elisa checks in
CLACK!! 12:00 PM
