My Oceanmaker narrative

On Tuesday, two weeks ago, my classroom did a narrative writing session writing what would happen in this short film called The OceanMaker and stopped at 1:45 to 1:46 seconds into the video so we could talk about that section of the video.

We described the landscape or the setting, we said what we felt like when we saw the landscape, we also asked important questions like, where are the other people or why did the water dry up, then we started to plan our narrative stories using this info from the section of the video we watched and expanding upon it.

Here is my planning sheet:

Here is my Writing document with the story I decided to write down*:

*I had trouble getting the document in the blog post, sorry.

In a barren, post-apocalyptic wasteland, which was once a coastal sea, now flooded with sand, new mountains and cliffs, as well as hundreds of shipwrecks and scrap, over top a submarine settlement, a rusty, old yellow Bi-Plane flies overhead.

Within the Cockpit, there were multiple notes and a schematic for a rainmaker, the pilot stands up and looks around using a pair of binoculars to see anything interesting, she then puts down the binoculars and rubs her eyes.

She then sees something in the distance, in the corner of her eye, a Lighthouse lights up, she immediately looks through the binoculars and looks at the Lighthouse and then turns left, to reveal a cloud in the distance. She races towards it, then she hears a big Boom sound. Her plane’s turbines had malfunctioned.

Her heart racing, trying to stop crashing, she tries to maneuver the plane towards the lighthouse to not die and to get repairs done to the plane, she almost fails to land, but doesn’t. she then runs towards the lighthouse and proceeds to knock the door, then came bursting out was the local mechanic.

She told him what happened, so he obliged to help her repair her plane using same scrap from his scrapyard, after 20 minutes the plane was ready to fly again, the pilot thanked the old mechanic for helping and gave some food in return, then she flew off to the distance, chasing the clouds so she could make some rain and hopefully make life better for everyone.


Thank you for reading this blogpost and please give me some of your feedback to me. :D
