OUT OF THE PARK
By Gregory Bonds

GENRE: Family, Animation
LOGLINE:

Baseballs, tennis balls, footballs: when Willie Wilson realizes he can talk to balls of all shapes and sizes, it’s only a matter of time before he must protect his new companions against a nefarious ball-napper.


SYNOPSIS:

*Mara Gagnon - Creative Executive, Oddball Entertainment "He has high stakes and colorful characters that work well for the animated market. A really interesting premise we have never heard of before."

*Diverse Voices - "The script has a fantastic sense of creativity and is filled with incredible imagination"

10-year-old Willie Wilson is a budding physics genius-- but not much of an athlete-- so it’s as surprising to him as it would be to anyone else when a baseball-induced head injury gives him the ability to communicate with balls of all shapes and sizes. His new friends, Valerie the Rubber Ball and Frank the Nerf Ball, show him that Balls have faces, limbs, and personalities and explain that someone has been kidnapping local Balls for unknown reasons.

Soon, Willie, Valerie, and Frank uncover a plot by Igor

Checkoutski and his henchman, Winthrop, to turn these Balls into drones and use them to cheat in an upcoming sporting event. With the help of Willie’s human friends and Grandmother, he’s able to free all of the kidnapped Balls and send Igor and Winthrop to prison.

It’s a classic story about a child learning to embrace his individual talents while learning sportsmanship, integrity, and teamwork, work in Science and Sports.
