Hola! I hope you're doing well. Feel free to say no, but would you be willing to describe the Royal Magic official trailer for me and my friend, Becca, who is also blind, please? If you're good with doing this, there is no rush. Take your time. I'm excited Cedric is teaching! I wonder if the Sorcerer's secret will come into play again. I'm disappointed Mandy isn't reprising Rapunzel this time. I pray Linda reprises Jasmine. Gracias for all your help.
I don't think I'll be able to do anything longer than this, because this is what I have so far and I'm not even finished. I still have about 10-15 seconds of trailer left. I'm going to try to get to the rest of it eventually, but I wanted to give you what I have for now since I'm kind of stalled at the moment.
(There's a big dance number at the end of the trailer that I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out how to even begin describing the blocking on. People are surfing on rainbows and doing cartwheels. It's very complicated, and trying to break it down in words is proving kind of difficult.)
But, hopefully this will at least give you a sense of some of the major settings and characters when they appear in the show.
However, if there are any singular places or characters you'd like described as the show goes on please let me know.
Individual shots don't take me very long to describe at all.
It's just describing movement within environments that can get tricky because I'm trying my best to describe the effects. I'm not really trained to think about animation effects and there are so many more effects to describe in animation than on a stage.
This is my first time trying my hand at things that are moving targets in animation so I might be slightly off in my descriptions.
All "right" and "left" indications are all based on the characters' rights and lefts because I think like an actor or stage director more than an artist.
I do not own the trailer! I am simply providing a scene by scene visual description for fans of the trailer because I believe in the right for everyone to have access to this show.
If someone wants to send this to Disney and get me hired to start an accessibility department, (only kind of sarcastic) please do.
But, seriously, I'd love to do this for people on a larger scale and/or help Disney develop this service so more people could have actual access to the material instead of relying on folks like me who are a team of one or being at the mercy of folks' descriptions on Fandom Wikis, which can be sparse at best.
That out of the way, onto the trailer:
We open on a storybook with a pink cover and gold accented pages that frame a building that looks like a castle. The castle is mostly light blue with golden framed windows. In the center of the castle, there is a blue central tower or spire. The roof of the castle is a very bright pink and matches the cover of the book.
A somewhat faded and old world map sits behind the book, the drawings on the map appear slightly different in shape than the continents and countries someone might recognize from our world. The table the book and map are sitting on is covered by a dark purple tablecloth. To the right of the book with the pink cover, there is a silver wand set with purple and pink jewels with a large pink one at the top.
A fairy, Miss Nettle, flies in, and does several loops. She has a small pair of goldenrod colored boots on as well as what appears to be a shirt and pants or jumpsuit in a yellow-orange color as well as a cape in a slightly darker shade of the same color. She is wearing a little hat that with a somewhat wide brim that appears to tie with a ribbon beneath her chin. She is holding a wand in her hand.
As she flies, the camera follows her in towards the castle like building and a golden gate opens.
As King Roland II begins to speak in a deep baritone voice saying, "What exactly do you learn in a school for Royal Magic?"
The first is red. It has a dome at the top that seems to be made of glass. There are four across the front of the dome. The top of the building below the dome is cut in a slightly spiked pattern and, highlighting the image of Flora herself, are two gold cylindrical shaped bars that run just behind the stained glass image of her from the far left side of the building to the far right. There are also two floral windows on the left and two floral windows on the right of the window depicting Flora.
Flora is an old fairy in a red gown with pleats down the front in a slightly lighter shade of red. She also has a red cape and tall red pointed hat that ties with a slightly lighter shade of red ribbon under her neck. (Not dissimilar to a slightly taller version of the hat Miss Nettle was shown to be wearing in the opening shot.)
In her window, she is depicted flying facing the left side of the building while holding her wand straight up in the air. Above and below her are two gold fleur-de-lys.
Below the windows is an ornately decorated gold arch above a wood oak door. The gold arch is set with small teal jewels.
The next building is green. It also has a glass dome at the top of it. But, the gold arches on this building seem to be set slightly wider and only three are in full view. The top of this building is cut in wider rounder shapes as opposed to smaller spikier ones. However, like Flora's stained glass representation, Fauna's is also highlighted by two gold cylindrical beams that run from the far left to the far right behind her window. She is also highlighted by two floral windows with green flowers, instead of red ones, two on the left and two on the right.
Fauna is a fairy in a green dress pleated dress. Like Flora's red dress, the outside of Fauna's dress is a darker green with lighter green pleats. Fauna's cape is a light green, and she has a matching green tall pointed hat that ties with a green ribbon beneath her chin. She has a pair of round circle shaped glasses.
She is depicted as flying towards the right and holding her wand up as though waving it.
Much like the door on Flora's building, there is an ornately decorated arch above a possibly wood door. This arch, however, is set with white, almost opal or pearl-like, stones.
The final building is blue. It too has a dome, but this dome is a little shorter than the others and has 3 gold arches in full view. To the left of the dome, we can see a little blue tower with gold swirls on it as well as what may be some kind of look out or place to set a telescope. Behind the main part of this building, to both the left and right, are two blue roofs shingled with what appears to be some kind of clay or slate roof tiles cut in flat half circles or a scallop shape. The roofs slope downward almost like waves and are capped at the top by small yellow-gold accents that are also scalloped shaped pointing upwards.
On both the left and right side of this building there appears to be a large glass window that has swirling gold accents.
The door is wood with gold accents across it.
Like the other two buildings, there is a gold arch above the door, this one also has white, opal-like, gems set in it.
Also like the previous two buildings, Meriwether's picture is set at the center of the building and two gold cylindrical bars run behind her stained glass portrait in a similar fashion. She is also highlighted by two blue floral stained glass windows on the left and two on the right.
Meriweather is dressed in a blue dress with lighter blue pleats down the front. Her cape matches the same shade as the outside as her dress and her hat matches her cape and dress as well. Like the other fairies, her hat ties beneath her chin. She is also holding her wand up and she is flying to the right like Fauna.
As Roland finishes speaking, we see his face.
They are flying in a flying carriage. A footman, dressed in a red coat with pink and gold accents, white gloves, and blue pants, is holding the gold rail in front of him and behind Roland II.
The sky is blue with white fluffy clouds in it.
Miranda sits on Roland's left with a golden decoration to the left behind her. It is accented with large white gems that almost appear to be able to glow like a lamp post or lantern.
Miranda is smiling and appears alert with her eyebrows raised. Her blue eyes are slightly widened, but not in shock or fear. She looks focused. Her back is straight as she faces the front of the carriage. She is wearing a crown that is gold with gems that appear blue, or almost teal, and look like ovals but almost glow in the sun like stars. She has an earing in. It is gold with a white jewel at the bottom. She is also wearing a necklace made of pearls with a teal and gold pendant at the bottom.
She is wearing her classic peach and coral dress with a gold diamond pattern across the front of the bodice. The sleeves are a darker peach, almost red or coral in color.
Her skin is a light brown or tan color. And, her medium to light brown hair curls just a little under her crown. Her hair is also resting over her left shoulder. The rest of it is pulled back just a little off her face, but most of her hair is down. It has a very light wave to it.
Roland sits to Miranda's right.
Roland is grinning slightly as he speaks. Most of his blond hair is tucked behind his ear. He has neatly trimmed sideburns that are also blond. He is wearing a golden crown set with blue jewels and accented with white gems, likely pearls, around each peak of the crown. Around the base, there are several red gems that could possibly be garnets or rubies.
His eyebrows are raised slightly in what appears to be anticipation or excitement. His golden eyes also give an air of child-like wonder.
He has on a somewhat navy colored suit with purple undertones. He is wearing a purple tie, tied in a pre-Regency cravat style such that it poofs up in an almost floral shape and some of the thin fabric is showing over his white collared shirt. He is also wearing a lavender, I believe paisley, patterned vest with pink undertones.
She is driving the golden carriage wearing her classic purple dress with the pearl accents and heart shaped crown set with pink and purple jewels.
She turns backwards to look at her father to speak.
Her curved eyebrows betray a few nerves. But, her blue eyes sparkle with excitement as her brown curls bounce with her head movement. As she speaks, her eyes and expression grows a little more determined and excited.
The front of the carriage is also gold, and there is a second lantern shaped accent to Sofia's right as there was to Miranda's left. There is also a single golden pole directly in front of Sofia.
We catch a brief glimpse of a slightly messy blonde haired boy who is smiling slightly as Sofia drives off into the clouds. We are left to infer that this is likely James.
The clouds break open onto an aerial view of the pink roofed castle we saw in the storybook at the beginning of the trailer.
We now see the castle also has a tower and what appears to be a second separate building off to its right in a matching color scheme.
It is circular in shape with glass windows all the way around it marked with a pattern that appears to be in the shape of a tree. The roof, like all the other buildings, is pink.
We also come to find the castle is much larger than we first discovered when the story book opened because, to the left of the building, there is an additional wing as well as the tower and second building. This wing seems to have a second tower with larger more open windows than the spire-like tower off to the castle's right. It also has three domes with gold accents that come off this pink wing of the castle.
As Sofia beings singing, her purple and gold carriage lands behind a green and gold carriage in a courtyard outside what appears to be one of the main buildings of the castle-school, which, we can come to infer is Charmswell.
The horse pulling the carriage is white with a red mane and it is hooked up to a golden bridle.
We also glimpse Amber as Sofia lands. She is wearing a green dress. She has blonde hair and looks to be wearing a silver tiara. Roland II's arm is around her right shoulder.
In the next shot, we get a better view of the courtyard.
There is a gold statue of Miss Nettle. Though, instead of the pants or jumpsuit she was wearing in the opening scene, she is wearing a dress in the statue. However, she wears the same pointed hat as the other fairies are shown to wear. The statue is made all of a dark gold and it faces the camera.
We also see the main building better.
Behind the statue of Miss Nettle is the center of the building, there is a single circular window behind her with pink and gold surrounding it. Flowing up towards the top of this central part of the building is a wave of gold, like a wave of Rapunzel's hair, this golden wave frames three windows that are curved at the top and straight at the sides. The window panes in these windows are gold.
At the top of the building, in front of a pink scallop shingled roof, is a purple crest with a gold crown accented with a single teal jewel. Two gold wands are crossed in an "X' shape at the top. Golden "magic" crosses in a knot shape from each of the wands. It bears some resemblance to two thirds of a Celtic Spiral Knot, but I have no idea if that was intentional. The outer part of these sort of ascending or climbing roofs are trimmed in white.
This building curves in a semi circular shape.
It is a light powder blue on the bottom.
We see about three windows on the right on the first floor mirrored by two on the right. All of these first floor windows are accented by golden parachute like ribbons that have three layers.
The second floor is also the same or similar shade of blue. But, it's windows are outlined in thick pink outer wall with gold accents. This true of both the right and left sides.
The curved roof of the semi circle part of the building begins about midway up the arched window in the central part of the building. It is also pink scalloped and accented in white.
Sofia stands in the right center of the shot with the statue of Miss Nettle in the direct center. She is looking up. Her mouth is open and her eyebrows raised.
Layla stands to the left of Miss Nettle's statue. She does not have her wings up. She is smiling and looking up the opposite direction from Sofia.
Both of them are wearing their classic outfits.
A few other students are scattered at random throughout the courtyard, but none of them are in focus.
In the next shot, Sofia is standing in front of pink, blue, and yellow flowers which are in front of a wide gapped purple and white sort of fence or balcony. There also appear to be some ferns and green leafy trees mixed into the flowers.
Sofia receives a light blue bag that magically appears in her hands in a poof of golden glowing glitter. She is grinning widely.
In the next scene, we see a table full of young people eating together.
At the very front of the shot and in the clearest view is Princess Camilla sitting across from a yet unknown/ unnamed princess.
Princess Camila is dressed in her classic green dress. She is focused and alert as she holds her wand. Her medium brown skin is glowing with the light that is flashing around the table from all the wands. Her dark to medium brown hair is tied back from her face in a practical ponytail. Her hair is slightly textured to wavy. She has on her crystal crown that appears to be made of some kind of emerald.
Her slightly layered dress also has a little flower at the very front that can be seen as she sits at the table.
Her hand is on the table, and she appears to possibly be left handed based on the angle of the shot.
The Princess, Linh, across from her is wearing white gloves, a pearl necklace, and a yellow dress with gold bows on the side. She had dark brown hair that slightly covers her pearl earrings. She has a red hair piece on that is painted with a pink, dark yellow, and light gold, likely Vietnamese floral design.
Other slightly obscured students are sitting behind them in two rows on the right and left sides of the table facing each other. Some of them are casting spells in golden light.
On the table, there are slices of cake with white frosting and a cupcake with pink frosting.
The walls are mostly windows in the shape of circles. The windows are outlined in gold with some sort of swirling design at the top. The walls behind the windows are pink. Each window comes up into a sort of tear drop shape. Between each teardrop shape, there is a blue wall. The main door has a purple knotted design over it. The door appears to be glass and has a mostly golden frame. There are two white pillars on each side with purple accents.
The next shot we see is of what seems to be Cedric's classroom.
There is a blue bookcase to the right most of the shot.
It is a full of mostly neatly organized books and potion ingredients that are in a variety of shades of blue, purple, and green.
The pillar to the left of the bookcase is purple. Their is a Braid Knot that appears to depict some kind of animal in a lighter shade of purple within this pillar.
To me, based on my knowledge of the art style, it appears spider-like based on the fact that the braid descends from the bottom of a sort of legged like being with a bug-like body making the braid have a web like appearance.
But, I may also be reading too much into things.
The wall to the left of the purple pillar with the Braid Knot creature is blue. Two silver candle holders with red candles mirror each other on either side of a large window with white panes. The window is accented with a repeating gold pattern.
There is a similar purple pillar is to the left most of the shot. Though, this time, the web-like braid goes up the pillar from the mid point.
Behind Sofia and Camila, on the right side of the room, there is a red table with a book on it. The tablie is lined with gold accents, also in a knot like pattern.
Sofia and Camila are looking at Cedric in the same clothing they have previously been described wearing. They look on with anticipation. Their eyebrows are raised as they look on expectantly.
Between the two of them and Cedric is a small purple table with a crystal ball on it. There are aqua accents on the table with repeated small, flat, almost "swooping v-like" shapes going in a thin band around the outside of the table.
Cedric sports his classic white bangs. The rest of his hair is dark. In comparison to how he looked in the original series, his hair is a little bit closer cut and less layered. Though, his bangs are still a little wild and floppy.
Though animated and excited in voice and gesture, his eyebrows often come together slightly and his back is stiff.
He holds a wand in his right hand. It appears to be made out of wood. Though, their is a purple light running through it and, at some angles, there also appears to be a visible purple crystal at the bottom.
Cedric has very light skin. His nose is long and pointed. His cheeks are slightly rounded and he has a heart shaped face. His jaw isn't very strong or angled - especially when compared to Roland's which is quite square.
Cedric appears to have on a green shirt with sleeves of indeterminate length. However, they do not go down to his wrists because we can see his bare arms and wrists as his arms move.
His green shirt is clasped with a yellow-gold circle of some kind and it is embroidered with some kind of gold accent.
Cedric's robes are a purplish-red color. They appear to be one piece of fabric at the top, like a sweater, and then the robes split below his belt at the bottom. The robes are accented in a yellow-gold sort of "leafy" design that is symmetrical on both sides. He has a belt that is a pruplish-pink color set with a pink gem.
His sleeves also have this same, or similar, design at the cuffs which flop about as he moves.
In the next shot, Sofia and Layla, who are wearing the same outfits as previously described in past posts and this one, are standing next to each other.
They are waving their wands in an arc shape towards a central point. They meet shoulder to shoulder and back to back.
Their wands are pointed towards the audience. Sofia's wand is glowing pink from the jewel in it. Layla's glows a darker pink or more red. Her wand seems to be a little more wooden than Sofia's silver and may be knit together with some kind of twine or pink string.
Both girl's eyes are wide and eyebrows are raised in excitement as they cast their spell.
Their non-casting hands are resting on their hips and are flared as they point their wands.
As the shot expands, they are joined by a few other students, on the left and right of the shot. It appears that Camila, Zane, and two other students were casting with them. They are fairly small so details are hard to make out.
Miss Nettle, dressed in the previously described golden-yellow pantsuit outfit, floats just above Camilla's head.
The students have cast a rainbow, three floating pink and yellow flowers, as well as three gold butterflies.
They appear to be on some kind of field outside in front of or near a white archway that has the same purple crest from the first building on it as well as three windows. A single larger rectangular one in the middle as well as two oval ones - one to each side.
The roofing on the archway is pink, and there are two towers on the arch that are both open air and have purple cone roofs with one long yellow flag atop each one.
In the next shot, Sofia and Princess Rapunzel are talking in a garden of pink floral bushes. Rapunzel is lifting Sofia's chin as Sofia looks at her with focused attention.
Rapunzel is slightly concerned. Her eyebrows are drawn together slightly, though she is in profile. Her golden hair is braided with a variety of wildflowers. Her tiara is gold and also appears to have a floral design.
She is wearing her classic dress with slightly poofy pink and purple striped sleeves that have a mid length pink sheer attachment that stops in a white cuff at her forearm. She is kneeling on one knee to face Sofia. Her hand is raised to cup Sofia's chin as she speaks.
Sofia leans into Rapunzel's touch as she talks. She straightens up and glows a little with pride with each word.
In the next shot, we see the Enchancian throne room.
The walls are draped with blue and gold fabric, likely something velvety or silky based on how it responds to light, the fabric to the left and right of the thrones is accented with fleur-de-lys. The middle fabric is just pure blue with gold tassles.
A green throne sits to the outer right, a light blue throne sits the next most inward, a dark blue one sits at the center, with a coral pink one next to it, on the outer left sits a lavender throne. Above the blue throne in the center, there is a crest with a golden griffin, one half of the crest is blue and one half is red.
On either side of the thrones are two white pillars with gold accents. On either side of the pillars are two white and gold floor standing candelabras - I think that's the right term - set with white candles.
A red carpet with gold accents leads to the thrones.
In swirls of purple glitter, Sofia and Cedric appear in the throne room dressed in their previously described clothing.
As the smokey purple glitter clears, their clothing swishes around in the breeze. Their arms are raised over their heads and their chests are puffed out as if preparing to take bows. Their heads are tipped back just slightly. Both are smiling.
Sofia creates a golden flourish with her wand as she grins a little. She turns to face Cedric and beams up at him as she finishes her fiery golden half circle.
Still slightly stiff in posture, Cedric smiles broadly, as he watches Sofia's knit-brow focus on the spell as she comes to look at him.
The next scene is a picnic scene.
The Royal Family sits on a blue patterned blanket in a green field. There is a plate of cut red apples on the blanket closest to the viewer.
There are several floral bushes scattered around the field, and a large tree is behind Roland and Miranda who are sitting on the far right of the blanket. He has his left arm placed, lovingly, behind her back.
Roland is wearing the same blue suit and gold crown he was wearing earlier in the trailer, except now, we can see his wearing matching blue pants and brown or burgundy colored shoes as he sits cross legged on the blanket holding a cup of tea in his left hand.
He is looking up at Sofia and smiling. His eyebrows are neutrally positioned, but his head is tipped slightly as he watches Sofia.
Miranda is leaned slightly towards Roland. Her legs are extended out slightly as she sits on the blanket. Her skirts are flowing and covering her feet and shoes so they are invisible. She looks contented as she holds her tea cup.
In the center of the image, Sofia appears to be conjuring tea, or levitating it to be poured. A white tea pot and three cups are glowing with golden magic as the float across the screen.
She is smiling with her eyebrows raised slightly in what appears to be excitement, focus, and a little concern.
Amber is waving a red fan towards her face as Sofia pours the tea. Now that she is closer in view, we can see along with her yellow-green dress, she wears a gold necklace. And, that her dress is two shades of yellow-green. It is slightly lighter shade of the same color in the pleated front and then a slightly darker shade of yellow-green around the outside. The dress, not dissimilar from Rapunzel's, is accented with white ruffles on the sleeves, and around the neckline.
Her blonde hair is worn down and stops just below her shoulders. However, she has tucked her hair behind her ears, perhaps using her silver tiara as a fastener. Her tiara is patterned with a sort of swirling wavy pattern and looks to be set with a single amber colored jewel at the top.
She is smiling and leaning lazily on her right arm as she looks up at Sofia. But, her eyes widen in delight as a tea cup floats towards her.
James sits to her left. His eyes are wide with focus and his eyebrows are raised. His blond hair is parted at the center and is a little messy.
He is wearing an aqua or teal ribbon like bow tie, he has on a sort of lime green coat that is buttoned with pearl buttons. A gold crest is pinned to the upper right of his jacket. His right arm is resting in his lap and his left hand is leaning on the ground. Like his father, he's sitting cross legged on the ground in khaki colored pants and brown shoes.
The scene shifts to Sofia sitting on her canopy bed with purple curtains, white, purple, and pink pillows, and a purple blanket. The headboard is a dark colored wood stain with gold swooping accents. Near the center accent there a diamonds that look like twinkling stars one large one on the left several scattered through a large central fleur-de-lys like design and there is possibly another gold large diamond shaped star to the far right, but it is hard to tell at the angle of this shot with how the characters are sitting.
The walls are a pink color with a lighter shade of pink marbling them.
As Sofia sits on her bed, she extends her arms to Clover.
Clover is a grey rabbit with long floppy ears and round eyes with black pupils and light brown irises. He has a pink nose, long whiskers, and four fuzzy feet. His "eyebrows" are a slightly darker grey than the rest of him.
Clover is surrounded by golden magic dust as he floats into Sofia's arms. She catches him as he flops back into her arms with a smile. The two of them are both smiling as he tucks back into her. Their eyes open as they share a small glance. Sofia smiles widely and her eyes seem to sparkle with joy as her hands are crossed under Clover's front paws across his chest.
The scene changes to Sofia standing behind Zane in a forest. Sofia is wearing her blue backpack and Zane is carrying his lute on his back.
With them, and behind Sofia, we can just make out a white ear, a blue tuft of hair, and a small horn. It is likely Pepper, the puppercorn, is with them.
Zane is wearing his classic blue outfit.
But, his mandolin is the star of this shot as it is centered.
It has a brown base and a diamond shaped blue jewel outlined in gold. At the sides of the hole, mirroring each other, are two knot like etchings - one on each side. At the top there is a big swirl, beneath it, coming off a central sort of vine are two other sort of leaf like swirls giving a sort of knotted plant like illusion when the mandolin is in perfect focus.
The shaft of the mandolin is black with a blue shimmer. It is surrounded by a golden border and the head of the lute is a matching bright gold. The knobs holding the strings in place also seem to be made of a sort of glowing blue gem.
The forest is full of tall trees that are both a mix of fir and deciduous trees. It is likely early in the school year because the leaves on the trees have not yet changed.
The two students stand at attention looking up at a large red dragon. The dragon is about half to three quarters of the height of some of the taller trees. It has pink fin like extensions off the side of its face, yellowish horns, orange wings, and short T-rex like arm proportions. It's claws are a deeper red, almost maroon, color.
The dragon roars as it moves through the shot.
In the next clip, Layla and Sofia stand next to each other in a green field with a white gate behind them. There are gold accents on the white gate and golden fleur-de-lys on top. Above the gate there are trees and to the right of the gate there appears to be a large pole, possibly a flag pole, of some kind.
Both Layla and Sofia are staring up at something. Sofia is blinking hard as her eyebrows furrow in what appears to be disbelief. Layla is staring in confusion with maybe a touch of concern.
Something off fram occurs, and both girl's eyes widen in matching expressions of shock. Though, Layla's shock still appears to be more confused as one of her eyebrows is arched and Sofia looks more frightened as her eyebrows go up towards her hair.
Sofia's arms have come out to her sides a little and her hands are flared.
Layla's stance has become more centered, and she leans forward and down.
So far, there are no costume changes for either of these characters.
In the next scene, Sofia is holding her Amulet in her hand while standing in a floral garden with tall grass surrounded by tree.
In the sunset lighting, her normally pink almost tourmaline like amulet has taken on a more amethyst like purple color. Her blue eyes are wide, and her mouth is a full circle shape making her appear childlike but also pensive and curious.
She bows her head to look at the Amulet she's holding in her cupped hands hand. As she looks down, her expression grows more focused and less curious. Her left eyebrow rises just slightly and their is an air of anticipation.
Immediately the cut jumps to three, large, fluffy, pink, cat like creatures.
In the foreground, the reach the mid-point of the waterfall behind them in a tall cliff face that has small shrubs and trees growing out of it and on top of it.
A white gate with gold accents and a gold fleur-de-lys is behind them. There also appears to be a purple sort of curved wall that extends from the fence going around the field they're in. Behind the pink fuzzy creature to the left, there is a blue sort of cart with a pole sticking out of the center of it. A gold ribbon like design extends from the pole down to each side of the blue cart.
The three pink fuzzy creatures each have three little tufts of hair at the center of their foreheads beginning just above the space between their eyes. Their ears are sort of a triangular cat like shape with purple inside them. They have a pointed tooth on each of the far sides of their mouths. Their noses are a rounded sort of upside down triangle and are a little stubby. Their almond shaped eyes are wide and rounded at the top. They stand on two legs and have large fuzzy arms and big fuzzy tummies. Their large paw like hands have little aqua claws at the end.
The fuzzy creature on the right is leaned over slightly with its right paw forward slightly and its left paw drawn back. The middle creature has its paws on it's middle and its eyes widened joyfully - it just looks happy to be there. The one on the left has its knees tucked and begins to jump and roll into a ball.
Quickly, the joyful middle one follows suit, while the one on the right stands its ground.
The cut jumps to Sofia who is closing her eyes tight. Her eyebrows are drawn in close together in concentration as she holds her wand in her right fist with her left palm open and extended. Her Amulet is glowing a bright pink as she looks down and to the right.
Behind her is a similar white and gold gate to the one behind the creatures. A forest seems to be behind the gate because there is heavy tree cover there. Also like the white gate behind the creatures, a purple wall or fence extends from the white and gold gate.
To Sofia's left is a light blue building with a pinkish purple roof another part of the building is taller than the frame and bears the same crest as some of the other buildings - the purple crest with the gold crown, the aqua gem, the crossed wands, and the partial spiraling knot of magic. I am going to infer this is Charmswell's coat of arms.
As Sofia focuses, and her left arm extends further, and explosion of pink sparkling magic extends from her Amulet and bursts into a forcefield around her as the shot pans out to show more of the field she's standing on.
One of the pink fluffy creatures rolls, in its ball form, towards her forcefield. It bounces backwards.
As it bounces, a swirl of magic ripples over the forcefield created by the Amulet.
In the following shot, the previously described, Princess Linh in the yellow dress with the red hair floral hair piece sits on the ground in a courtyard. She looks concerned.
Camila sits to her left. Her eyebrows are knit together and she is biting her lip. She looks scared.
Two new charaters are standing to Camila's left.
One of them is wearing a medium blue and yellow patterned outfit. This is Mayari. The base of the outfit is yellow with medium blue diamonds. The shape of the bottom half of the garment is a-line, but it is not necessarily a traditional dress or skirt. They also wear a blue vest over their ensemble. They have three necklaces on - two yellow and one blue. They also appear to have three matching bracelets on each wrist their 3 right bangles are blue and their left bangles are yellow. They have floppy brown hair that stops at the chin and curtain bangs. Their skin is light brown or tan. Their crown is a gold upside down triangle shape set with a blue, aqua, and purple stone from left to right.
Their brows, like Camila's, are knit together. But, they look more concerned than scared.
Next to them, is a shocked dark brown skinned princess, Thandi. She has her dark brown hair done in a braid down the back and four visible, what appear to be, bantu knots. Her crown is a gold circle with green and orange rectangular gems. Her dress is made of yellow fabric with large green diamonds, and she has an orange sash running across her body over her right shoulder. It is patterned with darker colored orange suns and tied with a reddish orange belt.
To her left is Lalya, whose dress is opened a little to reveal an under-dress of lighter pink with two yellow stripes running down the center. Her hands are on her hips as she leans back a little to help herself up to a stand. As she does, her eyes widen in concern as her eyebrows lift and come closer together.
There is a blue backpack to her right.
She is sitting at the base of a statue of the three good fairies all made of gold. Only Flora and Meriweather's profiles are in view.
The base of the statue is made of some kind of white material. Below that is a dark blue layer with gold accents. The layer that touches the ground is a medium to light blue. The ground around the statue is a sort of white and gold pattern that goes in a circle. After that the ground becomes a sort of tan brick like material.
Also sitting at the base of this statue is a young person with medium to light brown skin, short dark curly brown hair and an aqua crown with golden or bronze accents, Prince Farhad. He has on a red jacket with aqua cuffs and bands that fasten in buttons of indeterminate color. There are yellow diamond patterns on the sleeves. He has aqua pants with two lighter aqua stripes on the side. He also has pink boots.
He is leaning forward slightly and his jaw is slack as he stares at the sky in rapt attention.
On the farthest left, dressed in a navy hoop-like skirt, that becomes darker as it layers towards the ground, a young girl runs towards the edge of the frame. The top of her dress has long sleeves in a powder blue color. It has a navy tie to match her skirt and a purple cumberbun.
Her wavy navy blue mid-back length hair floats behind her as she runs.
Her silver tiara is in a Gothic diadem style. But, she is too out of focus for me to make out details. I am left to believe this is Zane's sister Zaria. She looks concerned as she runs. Her thin brows are like two upside down u's as they come together.
She likely came from the large pink doors at the very back of the courtyard, over which rests the purple Charmswell crest.
Above the door, there is a white balcony with a gold railing on top of aqua supports. The door to the balcony is gold.
Once again, all the windows are hung with the golden parachute like arches that also bear strong resemblance to the locks of Rapunzel's hair. There are three in view behind the statues of the good fairies.
The wall behind the windows are blue.
The wall behind the second floor windows are pink, much like the building behind the statue of Miss Nettle. To the left, there are three of these pink framed windows in view on the second floor.
On the far left, there is a single tall window that goes about half way up the second floor. It is curved at the top with gold panes and a sort of key-like design at the top. This too is topped with a tress of the parachute hair like design on a blue wall. The roofing of the building is pink scallop with white trim.
We return to Sofia in the garden of pink floral bushes at sunset.
As she speaks, her eyebrows raise slightly. She looks earnest and sweet. As she continues speaking, she looks a little more nervous as her eyebrows come together. Her smile begins to look a little more forced as her head rocks from side to side. She holds her lip in her teeth for a moment as she's speaking.
Her hands are extended towards whomever she's speaking with before coming to clasp them in front of her.
Her Amulet rests on her chest, sparkling in the light. It has now taken on it's previous fuschia color.
In the next shot, Miss Nettle flies above the students as they stand in front of the three castles described at the very beginning of the trailer.
Only three students are in this shot that we have not yet seen in the trailer well, one is on Sofia's left.
This student has their hair pulled up in a bun with a red hair tie. Their hair is dark almost black. Their crown is gold and will come up into some sort of large shape in the front. They are wearing a powder blue shirt with dark blue accents, a red belt, and dark blue pants.
In front of this student, there is a red haired boy, Prince Devin, he has on a light green shirt, a purplish-red cape with a golden crest on it, brownish purple pants, and grey boots. He also appears to be wearing green gloves and gold crowns.
On the far right of Sofia, there is a shorter dark brown skinned boy with curly textured dark brown hair. He has a gold crown on his head. He is wearing a white shirt and a red vest with gold lining. He is also wearing blue pants. He also seems to be wearing white socks and brown shoes.
The sky above the castles is blue with fluffy white clouds.
Miss Nettle swoops above the scattered gaggle of students. Her curly red hair is pulled in a messy bun. She smiles and spreads golden magic around as she flies up towards the sky after making a semi circle towards the camera behind Sofia and Zane.
The screen flashes and we see Sofia in a garden of yellow, blue, and pink flowers. There are some ferns in the flowers. Behind the flowers is a fence or small purple pillars topped with a white railing.
Sofia's eyebrows are drawn upwards as she smiles only slightly. She appears slightly nervous as she holds her backpack.
Her mother, Queen Miranda, kneels next to Sofia on her right.
Miranda smiles but her eyebrows are also furrowed slightly as she listens to Sofia talk. We get a better view of Miranda's skirt which has two symmetrical flaps at the center and golden oval like accents on it. As she kneels, she places her left hand on Sofia's arm just below the shoulder.
As the shot moves, we see Roland II is also starting to kneel beside Miranda. In this shot, we can see both his blue suit and lavender vest have gold shiny buttons on them.
Sofia leans in to continue to speak with her parents.
As she does, Roland puts an arm around Miranda. He is drawn to have an eye-line focus on Sofia. His attention is purely for her and what she is saying.
Miranda's brows are still drawn upward, in a somewhat concentrated and focused concern.
As Sofia continues to speak, she looks away from her parents towards the bottom left. Her backpack has lowered out of our view as her hands rest below her waist. Her brows continue to come together and her eyes soften in a little bit of sadness.
Yet, her parents wait, still linked by Roland's arm, patiently. Miranda's arm has moved more to Sofia's back from her shoulder. As Sofia continues, Miranda leans in towards her for comfort and Roland follows.
The next scene is of Sofia running. We get a close up of the Amulet as she runs. It is starting to glow fuschia and is surrounded by small shining gems like diamonds or rhinestones. There are three silver swirls at the top that comprise the setting that hold it in place.
The next thing we see are her feet. Her shoes are a satiny purple with bows on them. As Sofia steps down pink sparkles cause her to shoot up towards the sky.
We see Camila is falling from a cloudless blue sky where a forest lies behind her. Fauna's building is to Sofia's left.
Sofia springs up towards the sky. She screams with her eyes wide and arms flailing. Then, she reaches out and catches Camilla in her arms. Camila's wand is extended as Sofia catches her. Camila smiles at Sofia as she is caught where Sofia, still screaming, looks nervous about the landing.
(This is as far as I've gotten. And, I think I've added all the major updates that came today. :D I hope y'all enjoy the show, and I'm hoping to get that last dance scene - and the handful of shots in between - worked out soon.)
