Once Again - Animatic

So I've decided to make a silent film. It's actually pretty hard to make up a story based only on music. But since I'm not exactly what happens when, I scanned the storyboard and made a small animatic. It's basically an animated storyboard.

The point is to not know who the girl is, why she's gone, or what's inside; Just that they're really close, she's no longer near, he misses her, and he fround something that reminds him of her.

Music: "Once Again" from FreePlayMusic.com
