VIOLET CHAMILLE: WITCH DOCTOR

VIOLET CHAMILLE: WITCH DOCTOR
By Chase Carmichael

GENRE: Fantasy, Animation
LOGLINE:

When a clumsy snake accidentally drinks a forbidden potion and sprouts three bickering heads, a pragmatic chameleon witch doctor must race against the clock to gather rare ingredients and brew the antidote before the transformation becomes permanent.

SYNOPSIS:

Violet Chamille, a talented chameleon witch doctor, runs a chaotic but organized apothecary. Her routine is disrupted when her best friend, Shuri the snake, bursts in accidentally drinking "Hydra-Growth Hormone," which causes her to sprout two extra heads with conflicting personalities: a weeping pessimist named Lefty and a ravenous glutton named Righty. Violet discovers they only have until midnight to brew the "Uni-Cranial Reversal Draft," or Shuri will remain a three-headed hydra forever.

Together, the duo embarks on a frantic field trip to gather three rare ingredients. They use Violet's camouflage to steal a golden scale from a grumpy alligator merchant, force Shuri's heads to sing in perfect harmony to soothe the Screaming Orchids for their pollen, and work as a team to extract venom from a giant Shadow Spider in the Void Caverns.

Racing back to the apothecary with minutes to spare, Violet struggles to finalize the potion until she realizes the magic requires a thought of "pure singular intent". Focusing on her deep friendship with Shuri, Violet successfully completes the brew just as the clock strikes midnight. Shuri is restored to her normal self, and the two share a relieved, heartfelt moment - though Shuri decides to stick to water for a while.
