A little inspiration for your next story

A dragon, a penguin and an ice cream cart. This playful short is one example of the characters and worlds you can bring to life with Storygate.

Read the narration and scene descriptions

Scene 1. Pip the dragon joins Barnaby the penguin at an ice cream cart; a sneeze melts a cone. “On his very first morning, little dragon Pip sneezes a sudden fiery spark, instantly melting a triple scoop cone into sticky pink puddle.”

Scene 2. Barnaby cools Pip with ice packs, but a dragon hiccup toasts the marshmallow tray. “Wrapped in chilly ice packs to cool down, Pip hiccups another fiery blast, accidentally roasting raw marshmallows into glistening caramelized treats.”

Scene 3. The pair turn their discovery into toasted desserts for a crowd of customers. “Teaming up in sync, the duo scorches gourmet toasted crusts for an excited crowd, turning an embarrassing accident into a delicious triumph.”
