Cupcake Crime

February 18, 2016

This is my last Schoolism Gesture course assignment, it was story. We had to make a story based off of 10 life model poses, this is my result. The lady in question is a recovering cupcake addict,  but the temptation proves to much and she gets escorted out of the bakery by security. :D

Revised Storyboards

June 24, 2015

I recently went through and revised my thumbnails, they have been sitting at head height on my wall behind my computer screen. I read through them again and again and, coupled with some great advice about character development, I realised that I could push the thumbnails further. I have tried to include a few more shots that add to his relationship with the duck, he is dependant on the duck and he puts it before everything, in the original thumbnails I don't think that comes across as strong as it could.

In the beginning I have added a shot of him playing with the duck and throwing it up into the air, this will show him paying much more attention to the duck which I don't think he does enough of in the first set. I then changed the Spaceman's reaction to the the duck vanishing, I think all of this could be pushed and heightened a lot more, before I think he was to casual about the ducks disappearance, now he is much more distressed. Finally at the end like the ducks disappearance I tried to amplify their meeting again, so instead of just sitting down by him causally, Spaceman now flops down exhausted and grabs the duck pulling it into him, which I think is much more effective as essentially he has just lost his world and gained it back.

Luna Shores Thumbnails

May 20, 2015

Here are my very rough thumbnail storyboards for Luna Shores. I have kept them rough as the story originates from a comic I drew a few years ago,  I started with a good sense of what I am trying to achieve and would like to stay as close to my comic as possible. The original comic 'A Trip to the Moon' as I originally titled it was drawn on paper, I have many A3 photocopies of it but I have no digital copy. I will one day scan and digitise it as I would love to see a comparison of the two side by side.
