This description should help a graphic designer create a visually compelling storyboard based on the script. If you need further assistance or modifications, feel free to let me know.

It seems there is a recurring issue with generating images. I'll create a detailed description of the first 10 panels for you, which can be used by a graphic designer to illustrate the storyboard.
