"The Frog and the Fairy" Proposal

Logline:
A lonely fairy witness a human princess kissing a frog who then turns into a prince, intrigued by the idea she attempts to kiss a frog of her own but the decision ends fatally.

100 word synopsis:
It’s a sunny day; a group of fairies fly holding the hands of their mates. One fairy however is left without anybody’s hand to hold. They fly over a pond where a princess kissing a frog catches the lonely fairy’s eye. When the frog turns into a prince, the fairy is intrigued. She notices another frog, but is ignored by the solemn looking creature. Failing to entertain him, she recalls the event earlier and kisses him. He twitches while the fairy smiles anxiously. The frog then eats the fairy like a bug, and smugly adds another notch to a nearby post.

250 word synopsis:
It’s a radiant sunny day in the middle of spring. A group of fairies fly through a bright blue sky, each one holding the hand of their mate. Amidst the flurry of jovial affection, one lonely fairy has nobody’s hand to hold. With her arms crossed tightly over her chest, she glances around at the others who are so happily coupled.
Flying over a small pond she notices a princess holding a cute green frog in her hands. Intrigued she flies down and hides behind a leaf as she watches the princess kiss the frog. The frog sparkles as he is magically transformed into a handsome prince. Amazed and intrigued by this idea, she finds another frog.
The frog is disenchanted with the fairy and promptly ignores her. Annoyed, she tries to gain his attention by juggling pebbles. With her efforts failing, she resorts to other tactics like dancing. The frog barely looks at her before returning his gaze elsewhere. Recalling the event she witnessed earlier, she snaps her fingers and flies in close to kiss the frog on his cheek. He begins to twitch as sparkles and fairy dust surround the couple. The fairy’s wings flutter rapidly in anticipation of the frog’s transformation.
Just when she thinks he is about to change, the frog flings out his tongue, grabs the fairy, and pulls her back into his mouth like she is nothing more than a fly. He smiles to himself as he adds a notch to a nearby post.
