A polished studio concept art board — a single composite page that reads as a high-end pre-production pitch deck for an animated short. NOT a vintage pencil sketch, NOT a finished movie frame, but a polished concept page in the visual treatment described below. Layout: TOP HEADER (left): bold modern display typography for the title "The Last Little One", with a small stylised glyph next to it (sparkle, comet, or motif matching the visual treatment). Below in smaller crisp print: "OPENING SEQUENCE • DRAFT • ФАНТАСТИЧЕСКИЙ МИР, ДРЕВНИЙ РИМ, ВИЗУАЛЬНЫЙ РЯД, МАЛО ДИАЛОГОВ". TOP HEADER (right): a tidy "CHARACTER LINEUP" sub-heading set in the same typography. CENTER GRID: 38 numbered storyboard panels in a 4-column grid. Each panel is a softly rounded card with a thin warm-grey border and a delicate drop shadow (studio pre-prod board look). Inside every panel: a finished miniature of the action — rendered in the visual treatment described below. Top-left of each panel a small bold numbered tab (01, 02, 03…) and bottom-right an "X.Xs" timing tab — both set in clean modern typography (NOT hand-lettering).

BOTTOM STRIP: a horizontal timeline ruler with seconds markings (0, 5, 10, 15… up to total duration), tick marks aligned to the panel durations above — clean vector look, not hand-drawn. Below the ruler, a tidy notes row: STORY / FLOW • ANIMATION • TIMING & RHYTHM • CAMERA — each with 2-3 short polished bullet points in crisp typography (you can invent plausible production notes from the story). VISUAL TREATMENT FOR PANELS AND CHARACTER LINEUP (THIS IS THE CRITICAL PART): polished pre-production concept render in the "фантастический мир, древний Рим, визуальный ряд, мало диалогов" visual treatment — apply that style as the dominant aesthetic across every panel and character thumbnail consistently. Keep the studio mood-board feel: crisp typography, soft card shadows, no aged-paper or pencil-sketch look, no mixed styles. OVERALL STYLE: high-end studio mood-board page with the visual treatment above carried through every panel and every character render consistently. Clean modern typography, soft drop shadows on cards, occasional smooth-gradient accents in the margins (sparkles, stars, arrows). NO aged-paper look, NO hand-pencil sketches, NO mixed styles — every miniature on this page is rendered in the same single visual treatment described above. This is a polished pre-production concept page, finished enough to pitch in a studio review meeting.
